What our customers say
“We’ve been advertising with Live Magazines since 2016, and it’s been a brilliant experience from the very start. We chose to work with them because it’s a high-quality publication that reaches the kind of customers who need our services—and it’s absolutely delivered on that. We always track where our customers come from, and many of them mention seeing our adverts in the magazine. The advert quality is consistently excellent, which we believe plays a big part in encouraging people to get in touch. What really sets Live Magazines apart, though, is the team. From the friendly and approachable contacts, to the professional photo shoots and helpful reminders, it’s all handled with real care and attention. The yearly visits from Tedd are a lovely personal touch and show they’re genuinely interested in us and our business—not just the adverts. I have nothing but praise for the whole team and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Live Magazines to other businesses. It’s professional, personal, and it works.”

What our customers say
"Live Magazines has been a key part of our local marketing strategy at Stonyhurst for over six years, and our experience with them has been nothing short of excellent. From the moment I joined the school, they’ve been a valued partner in helping us share the Stonyhurst story with a wider audience. We initially chose Live Magazines because of the quality of the publication, its editorials, and its strong presence in the local community. It’s a trusted, high-end platform that aligns perfectly with our brand values. Since advertising with them, we’ve seen increased visibility in the local area and have welcomed several prospective families who mentioned seeing us featured in the magazine—clear evidence of its reach and effectiveness. The team behind Live Magazines truly sets it apart. Tedd, Kate, and Jan have been a pleasure to work with—responsive, collaborative, and consistently supportive. They feel more like an extension of our own marketing team than an external partner, and that personal relationship has made a big difference. We’ve also received great feedback on the look and placement of our adverts, which always sit beautifully within the magazine’s polished aesthetic. I would absolutely recommend Live Magazines to any business looking to connect meaningfully with a local audience. Their professionalism, flexibility and deep local insight make them a standout partner in the world of print advertising."
