Subject: fRoots June issue - copy
date imminent!
Advertising in the
JUNE 2012 fROOTS
Issue 348 of the
leading folk, roots and world music magazine!
COPY DATE ALERT: Tuesday 17th April
? To book space: email - ads_at_frootsmag_dot_com
? Publication date: 24th May.
Reaches UK subscribers from around 18th May.
? We're having an English summer! For the next three issues, published around our 33rd
anniversary, we're celebrating three icons of English folk, starting this month
with a cover feature on the mighty Oysterband. Then it's Shirley
Collins in July and Nic Jones for the Aug/Sept double. But inside
each issue, of course, our continual wide world music coverage.
? Join the celebrations with a series of 3
adverts. Not only gain an extra 10% discount but avoid the surcharge on
rates for the big Aug/Sept double issue (as usual with a free album, and sold
at major summer festivals).
? Labels! Artists! The BBC and mainstream press are cutting
back even more on folk, roots and world music coverage. fRoots is more
than ever the main focal point and buzz creator in our community.
? Physical is best! Information in print form carries more
clout and is kept and re-read.
? For rates, technical specs and stats see: http://www.frootsmag.com/content/ads/ads-info/
FACTS FROM OUR LATEST
READERSHIP SURVEY
? They consume! Like all hard core
music fans, fRoots readers are still buying an average of 42 CDs a year,
and they're buying nearly 120 paid-for downloads on top of that.
? They respond! 95% of fRoots
readers buy CDs and 72% go to live events as a result of reading about them in fRoots.
? They're everywhere! 70% do their
main buying online, and 40% are outside the UK. There are no barriers to
directly reaching them from and to everywhere! If you're an overseas label, you
don't need a UK distributor.
? We've got them! The maximum
readership cross-over with any other music publication is still only
29%. With fRoots you reach the long-term committed folk, roots and world
music audience and opinion-formers that no other magazine gets to.
THE DIGITAL EDITION
? More digital subscribers than UK Vogue
(according to UK Press Gazette figures)!
? No extra cost. All adverts are carried in
identical form in our digital edition with free web links.
