After the paper is published, one can be submitted directly to the magazine, and the other can be through the paper agency.
In terms of cost, magazines are definitely cheaper than agents. Because magazines only charge a small part of the page fee. On the other hand, the agency charges more.
In terms of time, magazine editors rarely collect manuscripts themselves. After all, every editor actually cooperates with many agents. They will get the manuscript directly from the agent and extract some benefits from it. There are many manuscripts in the hands of agents, so magazine editors are generally happy to cooperate with them.
The key is to get extra income from it, so why not? In terms of peer review, not all the articles in the magazine will be sent to you. Of course, as an agent, it is impossible to promise to send all the manuscripts to you. However, as long as the organization agrees, it can be issued. Then, it can be published by 100%.
After all, as long as it is a mature agent, it will have long-term cooperation with some magazine editors. In this way, there will be an effect of related households.
Therefore, it is much easier to find an agent than a magazine in reviewing manuscripts. In other words, magazines are cheap, but there is no time guarantee and the review period is long. However, in terms of agency, it is not expensive, and the review speed is fast and the time is short. Most authors who need to publish papers now are pressed for time and papers are more troublesome.
