Creative Critical Reflection Draft #2

My product engages with audiences by using social media and a website.

Social Media
Many companies such as GQ, Vanity Fair, and Vogue have many social media platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat. Social media is able to interact with their audience by posting pictures, reading the comments getting feedback, and replying back. Social media such as Twitter, can also update their audience by posting what new things are happening to them, keeping their audience informed. The way I will use social media is basically the same way by posting pictures and Tweets to the people who visit my social media platforms. Engaging my audiences by using social media will make them stay interested in magazines I create. Getting a better following on social media will also attract more people to buy my magazine.

Website
Like social media, many magazine companies have websites as well. Using a website will allow people to read my magazine articles on their electronic devices, which is in most peoples pocket. Creating a website will also allow me to sell products such as clothing and produce videos like how GQ and many other magazine companies do too.

Distribution
My magazine will be distributed both traditionally and digitally. Traditionally, a publisher is the first thing that is needed to create my magazine. Since my magazine is based off of Sarasota, Florida, I will be using the Serbin Print Market and Publishing Company. This is where the magazine will be edited by editors and printed out. Deciding which publisher to work with depends on what type of magazine it is: fashion, sports, technology, etc. In my case it is fashion. All magazine also have a producer where they create all major aspects of the magazine. My producer will then send my finished product to retail stores. The retail stores will market the magazine to consumers to purchase.
Digitally, a digital publisher will be needed. I can also create an app for my magazine so people can have my magazine digitally on their phones or tablets. My magazine can also be distributed by getting an online subscription to get my magazine sent to them on their computers or phones and tablets as well.
