Research and Planning: Categorising My Audience

Age
The age that my magazine will be targeted to is 15 to 22, the reason for this is around this age is when people get a wide interest in music and also have the spare money to be able to buy my magazine every week.
Gender
The target that I am mainly looking at for my magazine will be male, due to the fact that there are more likely to be males wanting to buy it every week.
Occupation
The target will be split from students in either college or school or people who are full time employed, so they can come home and read a magazine after finishing there day.
Class
I will be looking at middle class upwards because these types of people will be more affluent so they will be able to buy this every week.
Wealth
It will be targeted to people who will have spending money if they are in school or a part time job so they will be able to afford the small amount that it is every week.
Interest
They will have to have a big interest in music, things like going to gigs, downloading the latest albums, general talking to friends about new and up coming music that they are interested in.
Outlook For Future
I would like my magazine to be read while people go on to things like university and when they go onto there jobs.
How I Am Going To Reach Them
I will be using a lot of masculine colour on the front cover, to make it stand out to the target that I am looking to pitch my magazine to. Also by making stories stand out on the cover, it will catch there interest and they will then hopefully go on to buying my magazine.

 This will be the style of my target audience, a young adult who likes going to concerts and listen to music in any free time that they get. My magazine will be perfect for this type of person.
