3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

While looking for publishers we stumbled upon the Guardian Media Group. This publisher seemed perfect for the publication of our magazine because of the similarities with what they already publish. GMG work on the radio stations like Smooth Radio/ Jazz FM and they also publish the newspaper The Guardian. These are the exact type of mediums my audience would read and listen to as The Guardian is a fairly mature newspaper and my target audience are mature. Smooth and Jazz Radio offer easy listening music which my magazine offer also. Therefore this would be publisher for my magazine as they already have the experience and is successful in delivering for the niche population. My audience would find easy to make the link the successfullness of Smooth Radio and such and think my magazine was just as good because of GMG's amazing publishing.
