Partnership Strategy

Custom Video Content Campaign

National (On All Advertised Publication Sites)

- This video will be posted across all advertised websites, timed around the launch of the Michael Kors cover of Hamptons magazine for our Labor Day issue, and just in time for the release of our Fall Fashion issues across our national network


Local (Customized Per Each Website)
