Magazines.com

The other day as I was standing in line at the grocery store, I couldn't help but notice all of the different types of magazines on the rack. People, Time, Glamour, Sports Illustrated, even cooking magazines! What is interesting though is that these magazines often sell for their cover price of nearly $4 each! If you really come to think about it, you're paying quite a bit more for magazines (not to mention, the time to drive to the store, plus the price of gas). Rather than spend a good portion of your hard-earned money on magazines, there is a better way...
Taking a different approach does not necessarily mean that you have to give up something that you like. Had I taken the normal route of buying a magazine off the rack for $4 (for 56 total issues), I would have spent nearly $225 overall for a year! Shopping through Magazines.com (a partner store) for Time magazine though, I spent only $29.95 (for 56 total issues). That saved me almost $200 (and allowed me to get that new dress I had been eyeing at Bloomingdales). Oh yeah, I still managed to have some money leftover. By shopping through my web portal, I shopped smarter and also continue to receive the magazines I love to read on a regular basis.

Loren,
What fashion magazines do you read on a regular basis? I am a Details, GQ and Instinct guy myself. Men's Vogue is pretty good.
Do you have any suggestions for us as to how to get more exposure for the company in these publications. I know that there are rules when we deal with the media and I am more hesitant than not when speaking with journalists, mainly because I don't want to say the wrong thing and get reprimanded by MA Corporate.
What boundaries can I safely operate in when dealing with the media?
Thanks,

I love Vogue, Allure, Glamour and of course, for men, GQ and Details are my favorite...the fashion bible of the world... If there is something you wish to do as far as exposure in these magazines and are looking for some advice and approvals, contact Mark Miller at Market America. He reviews all things with me personally. But it is way too much to write here. Thanks again. Loren
