Mass/Niche - Magazines

Mass and niche 
In this blog post I will be explaining what mass and niche is and how they fit into one of my FMP's (Final Media Products). One of these I have chosen is to complete and create my own magazine.

Magazines as a whole are a mass media product but you can also get niche magazines.

Mass
Mass marketing is about creating a product which appeals to all types of consumer. Mass marketing often ends up with the brand name being used instead of the product name.

Niche

A niche market is usually a smaller segment of a larger market. Companies using a niche market often get less sales than they would if they aimed at a mass market. 

Mass magazines: Heat.
Heat is a mass magazine product because this magazine covers many different things. For example they have fashion, celebrities, health and advice. This type of magazine could target different audiences as they have a diverse amounts of topics. 

Niche: Empire.
Empire is a niche magazine product and this is because it only covers one specific type of product, which is films. This magazine will tend to only hit one audience which would be film lovers.
