Presented in an A4 format and printed in full gloss colour with a high-quality front cover, the publication itself appeals to a wide range of readers, both male and female, ranging from 30-80 years of age.

The magazine is focused on information and events that are happening in the local community along with a vast amount of advertisers promoting their business and latest offers. There are also a variety of interesting local and national editorials relating to the coming months ahead, which are normally featured on the cover of the magazine.

The OM Plymouth Magazine is the only free local magazine to be distributed through specially designed stands placed in all major superstores in Plymouth, including Tesco, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Co-op, Otter Nurseries, Endsleigh Garden Centre, Plymouth Market, Plymouth Pavilions and the Barbican Pasty Co. We also distribute to a wide variety of businesses and franchises plus door-to-door locally.

We are pleased to promote the fact that our advertisers choose to promote their businesses with us due to the success the magazine brings them. The evidence speaks for itself, with our advertisers featuring in many previous editions of the Oracle and still continuing to feature their businesses in forthcoming issues. Many businesses choose to sign up for 6 – 12 months at a time due to the response they attain.
