Target Audience Profile:
The reader of “SWAGGA” magazine is mainly male between the ages of 15-25. The Audience that will read this magazine will be very outgoing, interested in music, fashion and socializing. They have a very good sense of humour and very confident within themselves as a person. When they go out they are always dressed to impress just like the artists on the front cover of the magazine and very confident in the sexuality. They won’t be following their mates about what music they like. They have their own opinion when it comes to certain artists and music and will put their point across in a forum or blog about it in a very friendly but self-confident.
He or she isn’t scared to try something new and bold, as other opinions don’t matter to them. With fashion they will never follow the crowd; there will always be something unique or different to the rest of their friends to make them self stand out.
Music plays a big part in their lives. There isn’t a moment where he is not listening to music not matter what they are doing, whether it be completing schoolwork or at the gym. There is a song for everything is the attitude in which he approaches this type of media. Going to clubs where the newest party songs and beats are heard for the first time feeds his desire to find new music. The types of artists could consist of: Drake, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Nelly and Tinie Tempah. Those types of artists make hip-hop / R&B type of music. There lots of music categories that he enjoys listening to such as, Hard rapping making it easy for him to choose what he wants to listen to depending on what sort of mood they are and what task or hobby is part taking at that very moment. Nelly is an artist that he looks up to; he’s very successful and very dynamic in that he can make a manner of songs that he makes. He has very good sense of fashion, and his personality is very much like his in the way they are very social people and happy.
They will either still be in full time education weather that be, compulsory education, sixth form, college or university. They could have a part time job in where they are earning money for driving lessons, or new clothes, or a holiday away with friends. They enjoy their subjects that they are doing within their education at what level it may be, and on a regular basis complete their work and listen to music. He just doesn’t just do education but also watches a lot of films and also a lot of comedy TV shows like ,”Friends”,” Scrubs” and “How i met your mother” and much more to keep himself entertained.
With his hobbies being very outgoing and image conscious, he likes to go to the gym regularly to keep fit and healthy. However with all the exercise comes is not what his life is based around. As he is very outgoing and friendly going out to parties and other socializing events is what he lives for on the weekends, gives him a chance to have a good time and meet new people. This then goes hand in hand in the way he is involved in fashion. Buying new clothes is always where his money ends up, looking good and feeling good also makes him glow with confidence.
The reader of the “SWAGGA” isn’t interested in many magazines, as they don’t cover enough of what he likes; they are very specific to one type of music. However magazines like men’s health appeal to his physical needs informing him on ways to improve on toning and defining certain muscles. Films are another type of media in which he shows interest. Film categories like Comedy and Action are all types he enjoys watching. Whether that’s watching it on television, or watching it online. However that’s not the only online service within the media. Browsing on the Internet for clothes, music and communicating with friends to keep up to date on all upcoming social events happening and the latest music his friends with similar taste are listening to.
