Hope Today Magazine, A Parks & Company Publication, is poised to take the print and digital media by storm by rebranding as a full service Lifestyle Publication. Hope Todays new signature is aimed at affluent people of all races seeking inspiration. The rebranding of Hope Today is aimed at appealing to people who are seeking inspiration to help them achieve success in their personal, business, relational, and spiritual part of their lives. Hope Today has broadened its content from faith based editorial to full service Lifestyle content. Recent interviews with Hip Hop icon Common, Reality TV star Actress Lisa Raye McCoy, Pastor Jamal Harrison Bryant and other A-List entertainers, to name a few, is just one way the magazine plans to aggressively expand its current readership base.
The recent strategic restructuring within the publications staff has already proven profitable with measurable results. Newly appointed Editor in Chief, Diana Bridget, has built a core team of talented, dedicated and notable writers who are committed to providing fresh, current and thought provoking content for Hope Todays digital and print audience. The magazines primary objective is to provide content that its readers will not find anywhere else; while providing its audience with guidance to other practical sources of information (i.e. webinars, expert advice, organizations, etc.). This approach is unique to magazines and is part of Hope Todays strategy of being full service.
A major digital initiative will be the centerpiece of the new business model. John Parks, publisher of Hope Today magazine said, the new digital paradigm offers even greater opportunity to re-position the Hope Today brand for substantial growth in the new Millennium. Consumers are quickly moving to the web, and the interactive capabilities of digital platforms. We are joining a host of top consumer companies who are riding this new wave
