PM Magazine
PM (Professional Marketing) Magazine sits at the heart of the Forum’s membership offering as an inclusive benefit. First published in 1993, it is a highly regarded printed resource for everyone involved in marketing the sector.
Stay up to date with the latest developments
A high-quality educational tool, PM Magazine allows busy people to stay up to date with developments in a timely and efficient manner. Produced bi-monthly, readers receive the latest news, views and inspiration on the issues and activities that really count – presented in an authoritative yet accessible style.
An irreplaceable source of knowledge
The depth of coverage makes PM Magazine a highly respected, invaluable reference as well as an irreplaceable source of contacts, practical hints and research data, such as the findings of the Forum’s definitive annual salary survey and marketing benchmark.
Access to a library of learning
And it’s much more than a magazine. All articles since 1993 are available through the new Skills Development Platform. Members in the UK & Ireland can request a personal hard copy of the magazine to an office or home address. In other countries, a single copy is mailed to the country contact at each firm for local circulation.
Editor
In addition to editing PM magazine, Matt Baldwin is the joint managing director of Coast Communications, a communications consultancy that works extensively across the professional services sector.
