ABOUT U

U – The Caribbean Health Digest is the first publication of its kind in Trinidad and Tobago dedicated to bringing a wholesome approach to health, lifestyle, and well-being related to Caribbean people.

Our quarterly digest was launched in 2008 and circulated throughout several Caribbean territories for over ten years. After that time, we took a brief interval to evaluate the best way to continue to impact the well-being and lives of our subscribers and readers.

Like any other industry, the magazine world has also felt the impact of digital technology. Years of extensive research reveal a reduction in print publications and a significant increase in online readership. Faster internet speeds, interactive content, online marketing opportunities and a more economical distribution medium are some of the considerations we have employed in making our move into the digital space.

U is produced with high production values meeting international standards. Our exceptional team consists of writers, journalists, and professionals in the medical spheres both locally and internationally, who bring their experience and keen insight into matters that each of us can relate to in one way or another.

ADVERTISING

Marketing and advertising will take the form of an ongoing intense social media campaign developed to target our audiences. Some of our strategies will be co-branded initiatives with our advertisers, product giveaways, and interactive activities. We will launch surveys to ask our readers what types of articles appeal to them most and do competitions to feature a new writer in every U issue.

We recognize that developing and growing our database is essential to widen our reach and audience, but we also know that keeping them is equally important. Therefore, marketing will be continuous and comprehensive, always staying on top of the trends, relevant, informative, and credible, but most importantly, always adding value to our readers’ health, well-being, and lives.
