New Consulting Support for Publishers
Apply Now to Join the Magazine Strategy Network
Running a magazine today means navigating constant change. But you don’t have to tackle these challenges alone. With the Magazine Strategy Network — Magazines Canada’s new remote consultants program — you’ll have access to practical, one-on-one consulting support to help your publication grow stronger.
Here’s how the program works. After an initial assessment, your publication will be matched with experienced Canadian magazine professionals offering specialized expertise. Over the program period, you and your team will receive 10 hours of tailored consulting support focused on your business priorities — whether that’s audience growth, editorial and design strategy, strengthening revenue, boosting digital engagement, streamlining operations, or planning for long-term sustainability.
Don’t miss this opportunity to tap into expert, customized consulting support designed specifically for your needs. And thanks to the generous support of our funding partner, Canadian Heritage, you pay only $350, a fraction of the total cost.
Space is limited. Only 15 magazines will be accepted for the program, and all consultations must be completed by March 31, 2027.
Let’s get started! Apply now to give your magazine access to the expertise, strategy, and support you need to move your organization forward.
