I have 2 options for publishing companies that may distribute my magazine. The first one is a publisher that is well known for publishing magazines in my genre and the other is a publisher who has not produced magazines in my genre before.
One magazine publisher I would consider is Bauer Media Group. This company publish music magazines such as Q and Kerrang! magazines, This would help my magazine to become more popular quickly, as they have first hand knowledge on the best ways to market successful rock music magazines. On the other hand, they may be more reluctant to take on my magazine, as they already have two successful magazines in the genre, so may not see the need for a third magazine, or may not want to cut into the profits of the other two magazines.
The other magazine publisher I would consider is Development Hell Limited, publisher which makes music magazines in other genres. Although I would lose the specific knowledge of the music sector that Bauer would give me, Development Hell would also give me some expertise on advertising my magazine to make it popular. They may also be more likely to distribute my magazine, as they would be able to tap into a completely different market and take profit away from competition in their industry.
