Meet (the New) VIVmag:
NEW YORK, Aug. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- VIVmag, the first exclusively digital,
interactive consumer magazine for women, made a huge splash in the publishing
world this morning, unveiling its redesigned and expanded website
(http://www.VIVmag.com). VIVmag also announced that it will reveal a similarly
updated look, including enhanced video content and interaction for its
September/October issue, available on digital newsstands September 1. The
magazine announced plans to beta-test an iPhone version of its VIVshops!
buyers' guide section in mid-September. With these elements in place, VIVmag
firmly establishes itself as the new leading-edge player in the digital
women's lifestyle magazine space, breaking free from the confines of
traditional publishing and celebrating environmental responsibility.
"With the redesign of VIV's website and the bold new image of our upcoming
issue, we have cemented our role as the ultimate resource and exploration
center for our readers and for the media community as a whole," said VIVmag
editor-in-chief Anne M. Russell. "Our editors represent the top authorities
in their respective fields, and our stories are daring, cutting edge, and most
importantly, forward-thinking. Our advertisers appreciate the interactivity
they can now leverage to create a bond with their viewers. Now, the new look
of the magazine will showcase the contributions of our A-list editorial team
and our advertising partners. Our website will serve as the ideal complement
with exclusive content and the opportunity to share stories and interact with
our readers."
"The expansion and redesign of the VIVmag brand presents a plethora of new
ways for us to inform and engage readers. We don't see this as simply a
digital magazine and accompanying website, we see the collective offering as a
community destination," added Doug Carlson, CEO of VIVmag. "Whether we're
generating dialogues between readers or supplementing the magazine's content
with blogs, polls, and recipes, we are creating a 360 degree engagement
experience that stays with readers long after they've devoured the latest
issue."
VIVmag's mission is to deliver smart, sophisticated content with the
highest integrity -- and that includes its commitment to the environment,
reflected in its decision to utilize a paper-free digital publishing model,
eliminating the dependency on natural resources with which many publishers
struggle.
VIVmag's content revolves around 7 key pillars of a woman's life: Beauty,
Fitness, Style, Healthy Eating, Travel, Wellness and Awareness. VIVmag is
positioned at the forefront of magazine technology, with interactive elements
that enhance the reader's experience in a way conventional magazines cannot.
With the simple click of a button, readers can experiment with different looks
in fashion by mixing and matching outfits, applying different makeup colors on
a model's face, or even watching fitness moves in real time so they can do the
exercise correctly.
In its September/October issue, the first to feature the redesign, VIVmag
will include such interactive stories as: Fitness Programs For Your Smart
Phone; What do Web Women Want?; Breakfast: The New Dinner?; Pink Proceeds:
Buys that Benefit; and Image Rx: Aroma Therapy.
VIVmag is published on a bi-monthly basis. VIVmag's editorial staff is
available for media opportunities. For more information and/or a complimentary
subscription, please contact us.
