Distribution research #1

          The traditional distribution model for magazines include displaying your magazine in waiting rooms, coffee shops, and storefronts.

          Using a waiting room for distribution is appropriate because in whether you're in a dentist waiting room, doctor waiting room, or hospital waiting room, people tend to get bored. Boredom happens because they take so long to call your name. So, in the meantime it would be convenient to grab a (my) magazine off of the table closest to you to and entertain yourself, until you're called.

          Coffee shops are ideal for self-published magazines and people that hangout or go to a coffee shop are people who tend to be artsy and may be writers, journalists, or someone who would take a genuine liking into reading the magazine. So, distributing in a coffee shop is a good idea because it could potentially bring in a few new fans.

          And lastly, the use of storefronts, can be helpful when distributing for magazines because its can be something for people to pick up on there way in or out of some of the stores they visit frequently, or you can stand outside of the store for about 2 hours and offer it the people as they arrive.
