Scientific American has been the leading science publication for over 175 years. We reach nearly 10MM consumers on a monthly basis, and over the past nearly two centuries have covered the most significant scientific topics, discoveries, and milestones. SciAm is all about discovery, with an emphasis on space, math, physics, and other sciences.

Large, big-box retailers that carry a broad range of products. Ex: Walmart, Target, and Tesco.

Slightly more value-focused than high-end department stores. Ex: Kohl’s, and Dillard’s.

Sell surplus or out-of-season merchandise at lower prices. Ex: T.J. Maxx, Ross, Marshalls, and Outlet Malls.

Selling directly to consumers without 3rd-party retailers. Ex.: Brand-owned e-commerce sites, subscription boxes (Dollar Shave Club), and brand pop-ups.

Broad online marketplaces, often with global reach. Ex.: Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, and Mercado Libre.
