1. MAGAZINE PLANNING

2. TARGET AUDIENCE
My target audience will be young adults around the age of 14-18
years old ,I decided to target this particular age group as being a
young adult myself I believe that it will be easier to know what will
appeal to them more.

genre I believe as pop is commonly listened to music genre. the
social class that my target audience will be is unemployed or have
a low income from part time jobs.

money to buy it.
 For the first edition release I will give a 25% discount which will
appeal to the teenagers.

as I think that if it was like a newspaper it wouldn’t be good value
for money
