Why magazines?
- Magazines are read by an increasing number of consumers in India.
- Magazines cannot be muted when the ads come on.
- Readers do not switch to another magazine when they come across an ad.
- Magazines are kept and re-read and passed on to family and friends.
- Magazine readers are qualified before they even open the first page. This is particularly true in niche titles.
