What Are Distribution Models?

The traditional magazine distribution model includes what you would see as an old school paper boy delivering their newspapers by tossing them onto yards while riding by on their bike except with a magazine, it is the news stands you would see in a grocery store or on the New York City streets. If you were waiting to check out in a grocery store line, they tend to have the little stands on each side of the aisle that are filled with candy, gum, and magazines of all sorts. The most eye catching ones are probably the gossip ones that include TMZ and all the latest insider celebrity news, but they have all sorts of them ranging from cooking to fashion. Like I said before, they are either most commonly at a small stand at some time of checkout counter, or you see them at the newsstands that have physical papers on a street in a big city. The way that I would use this traditional distribution model would be to strategically get places to subscribe that fall into the fashion category. The best types of places would be big malls where people specifically go there to shop and look at different fashion styles, or art shops where people go to get supplies because there is also an artistic aspect of fashion. Any place that allows for creative people who are interested in fashion go to visit.
