PQ magazine and joined forces again with top tutor Sean Purcell for a review of the March 2026 pre-seen review on Merceh (a magazine and digital publisher).
Watch the review at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrqymCtQ_WU.
Here are some of the areas you might need to cover:
- Knowledge of the benefits and drawback of Big Data.
- Data protection and breaches – how to protect against this.
- Portfolio analysis.
- Pros and cons of outsourcing (company does its own printing).
- Sustainability issues could be around paper (have they audited that) and distribution (electric vehicles?).
- Consolidation – think is it suitable, feasible, and acceptable.
- Risks – how measure and mitigate them. A regular question in SBL.
- KPIs – understand why they are used and their benefits.
- Make sure you know BCG and product lifestyle.
- Why do we have NEDs?
- Merceh has lots of offices – might want to rationalise that. WFH – security about that.
- Fake news – want trustworthy news, but how do they ensure that.
- Operating profits drop.
