Pulse Magazine is an independent local magazine, hand delivered free of charge every month. Producing two magazines Pulse Magazine is delivered to over 30,000 homes and businesses across Milton Keynes and 21,000 across Northamptonshire.
An additional 2,000 copies are circulated to leading hotels, estate agents, boutiques, coffee shops, restaurants, gastropubs, libraries and many local businesses besides.
A trusted companion to those living locally, Pulse Magazine is A4 in size, full colour and printed on premium glossy paper that invites the reader and encourages retention. Engaging and relevant editorial combine to create a much-loved magazine that's as much a part of the Milton Keynes community as the roundabouts and Northampton’s as the lift tower.
At home, at work and on the go, readers look to Pulse Magazine when they're open to discovering what's going on in the local area. They use the magazine as a source of local news and information, and also to find trusted suppliers and tradespeople. Content inside the magazine spans the entire month meaning Pulse Magazine is kept and referred to time and time again.
Pulse Magazine carries around 60% editorial and advertising is interspersed among local stories, news, features and other information that matters to readers.
For businesses we offer a range of advertising packages and a leaflet delivery service to enable regular communication with local homeowners and people who live in the local community. Advertising is seen as an integral part of Pulse Magazine; readers value it and consume the content with interest. Advertisements are screened looking for items that interest, intrigue, catch the eye, entertain and inform. When advertisers create well-targeted adverts that speak to readers, they respond.
Online you will find a digital version of the Milton Keynes magazine at www.mkpulse.co.uk and the Northampton magazine at www.nnpulse.co.uk enabling us to include articles and stories on the internet, which are then advertised through our social media channels. This is particularly useful if news items are received after a deadline has passed and means we can still help those looking to advertise their business or push a particular piece of editorial.
