Subject: fRoots October issue -
final deadline alert!
Advertising in the
OCTOBER 2012 fROOTS
Issue 352 of the
leading folk, roots and world music magazine!
FINAL DEADLINE ALERT! Friday 17th August
? If you didn't already do so, book
space now! : email - ads_at_frootsmag_dot_com
? Publication date: 20th September.
Reaches UK subscribers from around 14th September.
? Why is fRoots the
readers' & opinion formers' first choice? fRoots is hugely more comprehensive than any other magazine in its
field, carrying more than double the in-depth feature content, nearly 50%
more news, more reviews and more original commissioned photography
than its nearest competitor, comparing current equivalent issues!
? With less and less mainstream media coverage for
this music, fRoots remains the essential grass roots
folk, roots and world music guide - more than ever the main focal
point and buzz creator in our community. You'll invariably read about
it first in fRoots.
? With venues putting more onus on artists and
their labels to promote their live dates, this is the ideal issue in which to
promote autumn tours and CD releases.
WOMEX ISSUE ALERT!
The following issue -
copy date 11th September - is our massive annual November/December special
Womex double edition, which once again will have a greatly increased
print run to reach everybody attending Womex in Thessaloniki
and the Association Of Festival Organisers conference in the UK -
included in all delegate bags. Adverts booked into both the October and
November/ December issues not only get a series discount, they also don't incur
a double issue surcharge. Double win!

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.
OUR 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.
