Magazine brand analysis & strategic development

We have developed a unique modular approach to magazine brand analysis. This approach breaks down the different elements which contribute to the overall brand and creates a factual basis onto which your publishing skills can be projected.

The concept is that we take the magazine and conduct a ‘360° audit’ by analysing the magazine brand from all the different angles (‘modules’).

This modular approach is:

 

  • Factual – too often we make decisions based on what we ‘think’ rather than what we ‘know’.
  • Market driven – key analysis is based on looking outwards at what the market, and specifically your peers, are doing, rather than looking inward at your own processes or precedents.
  • Analytical – of yourselves and your competitors.
  • All-encompassing – magazine brands cannot be developed with a focus on one element.
  • Business-led – you are in the business of publishing magazines for profit. In order to be successful you must implement best-practice methodology and intelligent working to compete in this challenging market.
