Question 3

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

Co-owned by Smiths News and Menzies Distribution

- WWMD pride themselves on delivering a friendly, fast and effective service. Making the process manageable and profitable for their trading partners, they provide bespoke solutions ensuring each of their clients.

I would use WWMD to distribute my media product because i feel that this institution would be able to offer me platform to boost my magazine sales. I have done in depth research into this company and i have found that there is a gap in their company for an urban magazine. 
these are the magazines they do at the moment.


On their website i was looking around to find out information on what their customers thought:

"We have used WWMD for a number of years and have a great working relationship with them. We very rarely come across any problems and if on a rare occasion we do, they are very swift at finding a solution." - Tim Cole - Commercial Writer
Market Trade News

This gives me great confidence in the company that i would be happy to work with them and have my magazine up to the standard that i want it to meet.


The service that WWMD would offer to me, as a publisher, would include:

  • Collecting magazines from printers where necessary
  • Packing and distributing magazines
  • Invoicing and credit control to retail
  • Supplying sales reports and information via industry standard data transfer
  • ABC Compliance
