Media Kit FY19 3 ABOUT Quest Community News

Quest Community News has forged deep bonds with our readers – in some cases for more than 140 years. With 17 printed newspapers each week, Quest also publishes local news daily online and offers deeper connections with its audience through social media, ensuring readers have access to the news they need, on the platform of their choosing. Our newspapers are as vibrant as the communities they reflect, delivering localised news, and providing readers with a complete lifestyle solution. Each is proud to provide a sense of belonging for the communities they serve, connect readers to their neighbours and help celebrate the diversity around them.

Quest’s trusted brands across multiple platforms give readers insights into where to shop, work, play and socialise close to home, as well as delivering up-to-date news and sport coverage.

Each of the Quest Community News titles is distributed within a carefully defined geographic area that is big enough to give our loyal advertisers the benefit of critical consumer mass, but at the same time is small enough to retain local character and identity. Although sharing a common brand, each Quest title is a unique reflection of what’s happening within its own immediate community.

We provide a blanket coverage of Greater Brisbane, over 1 million readers across print and online every month. Coverage stretches as far north as Caboolture and as far south as Logan.

Media Kit FY19 7 Families with children under 18 at home Parents keen to stay connected with their community. These readers spend their dual income on childcare, baby goods and clothing, groceries and education. This group is Our Readers more likely to be established and price-conscious, they most likely have a mortgage and are continually striving to buy or change an existing home to better suit their family.

Home owners This group is quite literally invested in their local community. Home owners are more likely to have lived at their current address for at least five years and participate in local leisure, events and entertainment activities. They also love shopping locally and supporting local small businesses. Of course, they’re proud of the houses they’ve made their homes and they’re more likely to have DIY-ed or paid a professional to renovate. When it comes to shopping for furniture and homewares, they’re interested in quality and functionality. They’re more likely to have children under 18 living at home and spend more each week on the groceries.

Baby Boomers/Retirees This group deeply values keeping connected with their community and are passionate about local issues. They are more likely to be grandparents concerned about security and are quality-conscious. They are loyal to their brands, and expect better customer service and value for money. They’re more conservative shoppers than the younger age groups, though they are happy to spend on holidays and vehicles. They may not be as tech-savvy, but they still go online on a regular basis.

Business Owners The deepest roots of all. Our local business owners live, work, think and breathe their local community. They passionately support their fellow local businesses and consider their local newspaper the voice of their community – it’s their main source of information about what’s going on in their local area.

Younger readers with no kids Without the responsibility and expense of kids, our younger readers have a higher disposable income to spend. They are less price-conscious, are early adopters of new technologies and products, seek quality in their purchases, drink and eat out more and use social media and digital platforms to get their info. They shop often and are more likely to be looking to buy a new home, but still love spending money on entertainment, going out and heading overseas. This group is all about their lifestyle. Some are studying but most are concentrating on their full-time jobs.

There’s still something of a village atmosphere here, perfectly matched with the friendly, local coverage that the community enjoys from Redcliffe & Bayside Herald.
