institutions

Publishing Company- NME


The Bauer Media Group- The BMG is classed
as a media empire (Producing 300
magazines in over 15 countries)
It owns magazines like Kerrang, Zoo and
Mojo.
EMAP was the second largest magazine
publisher in the UK. However in 2007 it was
split up and sold off.
The BMG picked up the remains of EMAP for
1.14 Billion. This made the Bauer Media
Group the largest publisher in Britain.

Bauer Media
I think that the Bauer Media Group would be
suitable to distribute my magazine due to the
fact that they distribute big and successful
magazines such as Kerrang and Mojo. The
BMG does not have a current EDM/House
music magazine. Therefore there is a need for
a music magazine like mine to fill the gap
which can get to a wider audience. This would
bring the BMG more money as more people
would be buying my magazine. It would also
allow my magazine to gain notoriety as it is
being published by a trusted institution.

Background of the BMG


The Bauer Media Group is an institution in the
Media world which publishes 600 physical
magazines, 400 online products and 50 radio
and TV Stations around the world.
In 2013 it was estimated to have earned
around 2 or 4 billion euros.
Its headquarters is situated in the city of
Hamburg in Germany.

Opportunities
The BMG would allow for my magazine to be
produced widely. Due to the fact that they do
not have a current EDM/House magazine. This
would allow for my audience to be reached.
Current popular BMG magazines such as
Kerrang and Q all have their own individual
websites. This would allow for my magazine to
have its own website. It would then allow for
magazine to be marketed worldwide due to
the fact that many other countries would be
able to access my magazines website.
