The digital distribution I have chosen to distribute my magazine would be through social media and website advertisements. Social media is not only popular with the younger generations, but Facebook in particular is used greatly by people over the age of 40. Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook would be the main choices of advertisement for social media. An advertisement would appear and give a 5 second video of the magazine and have a small summary (5 seconds long) of the magazine. There would also be a link to the magazine to be able to order it online directly and get it shipped directly. There would also be the option of seeing what stores offer the magazine and the ability to order online and pick it up in one of the local stores. I also would advertise in the local newspaper, and the newspaper of the Sarasota County, which extends the radius of distribution for newspaper readers. There are approximately 38,000 people who get the Sarasota-Herald Tribune, and these people are all loca...

I decided that the cover page looked best as shown in the picture. The focus of the picture in the page is Carson, the golfer. The original draft had Carson more towards the right side of the cover page. I shifted the picture towards the left of the page to make Carson become more centered in the page. It adds some water into the frame, which makes the picture more appropriate as the best golf courses in the world have water.

The traditional distribution for a magazine would be to sell them to customers through stores found in their local cities or counties. The distributing process is shown in the illustration above. The publishers will sell their magazine to wholesalers, who then sell them to local stores. The National Distributors have a limited delivery range, unless they are a commercial company, such as ESPN or TIME magazine. Since my magazine is found locally and not nationally, there is no need to have a National Distributors. I would distribute the magazine to stores myself, or hire one person to do it. There is no need to have distributors or wholesalers because the range of my magazine.

Based on my research of magazine advertisements and marketing strategies, my marketing plan will depend on local networks and social media for advertisements and marketing. Social media platforms such as Instagram and Facebook allow you to target a specific group of people who live in a certain location. My location would be Sarasota, Florida. Not only will their be an advertisement, I would also put a supporting link to purchase the magazine once they click or tap on the ad. I will also runs ads in the local newspaper, along with other newspapers from different cities around Sarasota. This will allow high school teams from other cities to stay up to date as well as those in the specific area.

For my revision, I decided to move the title of the article away from the person in the picture, and more into the open space, where there is no action. This allowed me to enlarge the text and see the action of the picture more clearly. It allows the picture to stand out more and the focus shifts more toward the player. The text in the article was edited to make it look more professional. The first draft had text that did not have any indentations or paragraph separation, so i had to make sure that was fixed. Each paragraph is around the same length, with some shorter and some longer adjusting to the information being given.
