The range of business publications distributed by Insider has grown organically from the knowledge and experience gained from producing the regional Insider titles. The great strength of all the products are the regionally based teams of writers and researchers.
All publications also utilise the skills of a highly creative production and design team. The extremely high quality of production achieved for the monthly magazines is replicated in all other publications.
INSIDER MAGAZINES
There are currently five regional Insider magazines, six including the East Midlands edition. The management plan is to grow Insider into a national business offering by continuing to expand and grow from market leading positions in each of the UK’s core regions.
DEALMAKERS GUIDES
There are seven annual Dealmakers Guides, one for each major UK region. They have been the market leader since 1993 (15 years) and provide unique information and listings of advisors available to help company directors with company sales and acquisitions in each region. The Guides are distributed at the regional Dealmakers Awards Dinners as well as via Insider magazine.
BIOTECH GUIDES
In addition to regional Dealmakers Guides the company has successfully launched sector specific guides. These guides focus on providing deal information relating to a specific sector such as Bioscience. They also list the advisors who specialise in offering advice and services specifically to that sector.
COMMERCIAL PROPERTY GUIDES
Currently there are four annual Commercial Property Guides: one for the North West, Yorkshire, Midlands and the South West and Wales. Each guide provides very detailed information relating to commercial property (ie detailed breakdowns of rent prices by area within the region). They also provide lists of advisors and other information to assist anyone re-locating into the region. They are distributed with Insider Magazine and also at the Property Award events.
UKPLC SERIES
This publication circulates internationally and within the UK. Copies are sent to Embassies and other government agencies whose role is to encourage investment into the UK. The publication includes detailed business data, broken down by UK region, presented in chart graphs and table. These include details of the skills available within a UK region, the average rates of pay, transport and education information.
The UK PLC is well established and several events are also held annually in conjunction with the launch of this publication.
HR GUIDE
One of the core sections within the Insider magazines is a “people” section where staff writers and other regional experts give advice and information relating to HR matters. This pool of experienced and knowledgeable writers has enabled the company to develop a series of specialist directories of HR services and suppliers, for each region, circulated with Insider.
