Expansion potentialThere is huge advertising potential to increase to monthly publication and the publisher has already started to introduce profitable supplements and guides. This potential is based upon the fact that our target audience has been given greater responsibility for purchasing across a wide range of products and services. The title has also developed a very interactive website and has seen increasing revenue streams in electronic advertising and list rental of its database.There is also much potential in increasing reader subscriptions - whilst essentially the title is a free, controlled circulation magazine, it has attracted without much effort close on 1,000 subscribers generating £20K.
Competition / MarketThe title has two other competitors serving a very healthy and expanding market but is recognised for its editorial quality as the key publication by the two professional associations that cater for our readers.
