I think Hollie would be the perfect candidate to buy my magazine, because the way she
dresses, looks, and what she listens to, fits accordingly with what Rock Variety is all about.
Her musical tastes are a variety of genres of music with more attitude which fits in perfectly
with the magazines title. I have used the band All Time Low on my cover, so it could attract
her attention. Hollies interests show that she is a fun outgoing girl, which is the kind of
person I'd want to buy my magazine. She is also the target audience I am appealing to, so to
garner her interest, I have put popular 'at the moment' bands on the cover, fun articles,
and a young actor with trendy clothes on the cover. Two of the colours she likes (red and
black) are part of the theme of the magazine too.
