4. Who would I choose
For my magazine I would personally use IPC due to
the fact that it is a smaller corporation and it is based
in the UK ( Time Inc. is based in the United States)
Because IPC Media is a smaller firm this means that
they would get to know my magazine intimately and
would give it the time it needs. Whereas Time in is a
’Parent’ to numerous publishers.
