Hearst Previews New Content and Sponsorship Opportunities at MagFront

"Whether you're an author or a playwright or an actor or an editor, it's been so interesting to see how the creative class has become very invested in the commercial success of their endeavors," he said. "I think our editors have really led that charge in [the magazine] world." Highlights included flagship brand Cosmopolitan's cross-platform "year of beauty," which will offer plenty of native content integrations both in-book and on the magazine's digital and social channels, per new editor Michele Promaulayko. Meanwhile, O, The Oprah Magazine is planning its own "year of adventure"—and an Oprah-branded cruise. Elle will be launching a new personal style initiative and awards platform, and Marie Claire will focus on "The... Continue reading at 'AdWeek'
