Frequently Asked Questions


Why should I work with a magazine publishing consultant?

Seeking specialist expertise is a good investment for any publisher who either does not currently have the skills within their business or simply has the time to focus on the detail growing circulation usually requires. A circulation consultant can help publishers realise significantly improved results for their magazines and usually tailor their approach to your objectives for each title.

How long does it take to launch a magazine?

Depending on the size of the launch, it takes between 3-6 months to successfully plan a magazine launch. The more lead time the better the possibility of success.

How to work with a magazine consultant

There are a couple of ways to approach it;

1. Ongoing sales development and marketing
If you are looking for an ongoing solution to your circulation sales and marketing needs, we work with you each month on agreed activities and work with you to achieve your objectives. We offer a fixed-rate retainer so you know the costs upfront.

2. Project-based work
Have a business challenge or assignment with some clear objectives or a problem you’d like solved? The more specific the better (or if you don't know we can help you find out). We will take a briefing from you which will outline agreed deliverables or outputs. From these discussions, we will then validate our approach in a short document which will become our engagement letter.

Is my data safe?

We appreciate your data is important to you and we too will treat it with utmost importance and confidentiality. Data relating to your assignment will be securely backed up and kept for the duration of the project.

Does Greenhouse Media distribute magazines?

No. We don't distribute magazines as such - we have no trucks! We are a magazine circulation consultant and marketing agency. We create sales development strategies and marketing plans for magazines and work with magazine distributors on behalf of the publisher.
