2014 MEDIA PACK

Me and my youngest daughter, Lillie

Baby Buzz Magazine is all about finding what works for you - the parent, the child, the family....

Let me introduce myself, I am Nickie. I have two gorgeous daughters Mia (13) and Lillie (3).

I wanted to do something to motivate me, to give me a purpose and most importantly provide me with a means to support my family.

I knew it would be hard work producing an online and printed publication on my own every month and raising my family, but without sacrificing precious family time (and learning to work every god given hour) I have achieved what I set out to do. The end result is a great parenting publication that incorporates information, editorials, exlusives, celebrity features and expert advice from some of the industries leading experts.

Along with the publication I set up a focus group, which grows rapidly every week, with parents asking to join all over the UK with children of all ages, to review and try out the numerous products being brought onto the

market. We currently have 100 families on board who we alternate monthly, to give everyone a chance at trying things out.

So why another baby and parenting magazine you might ask? After much market research, I discovered that not only was I fed up of paying a small fortune for magazines that didn't have anything worthwhile in, so was everyone else! It seemed as though magazines stopped featuring anything tailored towards a child who was 3 or 4 years old with the assumption that by this point you should know everything there is to know about being a parent!. Parents everywhere constantly want to know useful tips, advice, medical knowledge or just simple gift ideas regardless of age, so that’s what I’ve done. I’ve combined the best of what's on the market with medical advice from midwives, GP's and different organisations for families who are expecting a baby or have children from 0 months - right up to teenage years.

The magazine has grown from just 48 pages when first launched and increased monthly to a now jam packed 84 pages!

distribution Baby Buzz Magazine started out just being available in North London. From the beginning of 2013, we saw demand for the magazine suddenly increase and so we started to distribute a little further afield and expanded into Essex and Hertfordshire with a launch party at the new Holiday Inn Hotel, Southend Airport.

ADVERTISING COSTS

We strongly believe that advertising doesn’t need to cost thousands and that there is an opportunity for everyone. As such our pricing structure is the most competitive of all other publications and we intend to keep it this way.

As the magazine grows and expands into more and more areas, our prices may well increase, but we will keep it on a marginal basis and will always keep the affordability as our priority to you the business.
