Trade Publications are also called trade journals

These publications:

- are targeted towards and use the language of a specific business, industry, or profession.

- could be published by either a profit making company or a non-profit professional organization (for example the National Association of Broadcasters).

- contain plenty of advertising for the goods and services used by a given business, industry, or profession.

- use a lot of imagery and colors (much like popular publications).
