Target audience profile for my school magazine.

1. .Target audience profile
My magazine will be called ‘student- sun’ and is aimed at 16-19
year olds of both genders who are in full time education at the
Douay Martyrs school, and may or may not have a part time job.
My target audience has a good sense of humour and enjoy a
laugh. They are fun, especially when in the company of their
friends and families. Music and fashion will be a big part of their
life, along with social networking, learning to drive, and watching
films; there favourite type of films are horror and rom-coms. They
like to socialize with their friends, and are quite interested in
sports. Education is valued a lot by these sixth formers because it
is seen as the key to a successful future, and this will be reflected
on my magazine front cover. The readers of my magazine also
have needs, for example, they need to know how to survive sixth
form and how to balance their social life with their school work. My
magazine will help with these needs by providing advice and
guidance on how to progress well at school and in the future, as
well as helping with other needs, such as how to dress at school.
They will read ‘student-sun’ to satisfy their needs, and add
pleasure and entertainment to their lives, whilst also seeing it and
using it as a ‘friend’ which links in to Maslow’s ideas about needing
social interaction in our lives.
