Business description
For the first time, the leading mixed martial arts magazine with unmatched name recognition is available for purchase along with the website. Currently there are about 10 magazines in the martial arts market. This magazine is the number one magazine today and the most recognizable within the sport. Popularity for this sport has continued to reach new heights and delivers access to the most coveted demographics, males 18-35 years old.
Mixed martial arts is currently the 6th most popular sport in America with all major sports channels, newspapers and other publications devoting more and more resources to covering the sport. As the number one magazine with the most recognizable brand name in the sport, is in high demand and positioned for continued growth.
Recently, Wal-Mart, Albertsons and 7-Eleven have called the publisher seeking to sell the magazine in its stores. The publisher has refrained due to capital requirements. In addition, foreign distributors have contacted the publisher looking for more quantity than the publisher has made available. For example, a Canadian distributor is requesting 40,000 copies for Canada instead of the 4,000 copies currently available for that market.
Mixed martial arts is the fastest growing sport in America with a 106% year over year increase in online interest. The NHL, rebounding from a holdout-cancelled 2004-2005 season, was a distant second with 35% growth. Recently CBS and NBC have been pursing Ultimate Fighting broadcast opportunities. CBS recently announced that it would air at least four EliteXC events per year and NBC has long been rumored to be in talks with several mixed martial arts promoters to bring the sport to its network.
Magazine averages: Print Quantity, 32K/Newsstand Sell Through, 60%/Ad Sales Per Issue,$65K/Subs Per Issue, 200 with most 2 or 3 years.
