Evaluation Question 4

This is the reader profile for my magazine which shows who the audience would be for my music magazine. As you can see, I want my magazine to appeal to both genders which is why there is a percentage amount for both male's and female's. There is a higher percentage of males (64%) because I think there are more males who are interested in rock, even though a lot of woman like this specific genre too. The median age for people buying the magazine is 23, this is because I believe the age limits to which people will be buying these is from the age of 15 to 40. There are a lot of young who like Rock music, however I don't think you would buy magazines until you are at the age of around 15, because at this age you can receive pocket money or possibly start working at this age. In addition to this, after you have aged past fourty, there isn't much of a fascination for buying magazines, as you have more important things to do, and by the age of fourty magazines tend to have run out of fashion. Therefore, the social classes in which my audience is at is D, C2 or E. C2 class status' are the older population who have a job, which involves being a skilled worker which buy my magazine, D includes people who are working which are only semiskilled or unskilled workers, which will involve the people who have possibly just left college and university and got a recent job,aged 19-24. Finally, the class E who purchase the magazine are the younger population who are still students or are studying in education, 36% of the Class E buying my magazine are students, as they have a lot of free time in and out of education to read the magazine.
