The latest trends in place marketing indicate that one of the biggest challenges faced by administrative units is effective building up credibility and trust among the key stakeholders. Among the numerous tools which allow to achieve this goal, own medium in the form of a dedicated commune/city/region magazine proves very effective.

Such a magazine may promote in a non-aggressive way specific places, products, industries, ways of spending free time, events, famous people and ordinary yet talented individuals, cuisines etc. The content is light and readable the way we want it when drinking the morning coffee or travelling by plane.
