People love magazines. Unlike other advertising media, such as advertisements and
direct mail, they do not find magazines intrusive and annoying. And research supports this - consumers are
more likely to take action as a result of reading magazines than of watching television or seeing a billboard.
So along comes customer publishing - giving customers a targeted, sophisticated and seriously branded magazine.
We believe that such a customer magazine is the most important communication tool in a customer/client loyalty
programme. It has unsurpassed success in strengthening emotional bonds between companies and their customers and
driving business forward. Using it as part of your CRM strategy would be a wise decision. Using New Media Publishing
to publish it for you would be even wiser.
But don't take our word for it; look at the research below (with thanks to the Association of Publishing Agencies in
the UK) or at the comments and research on every individual magazine we publish. And then call us.
