Evaluation Question 5

How did you attract/address your audience?


I attracted my audience letting everyone know about it and its features and articles. I made it as similar to the real thing as possible so that people would prefer to buy my one ahead of others. Of course i added my own unique touches to make it my own magazine otherwise it would be copying which was not the task set.


The main target audience i am going for is that of people of the age from about 15 and above. This links in teenagers with the adult world and they can get a good feel of what adults like to read as they become one themselves.


The magazine would be posted all over social websites and television programmes, also it can be mentioned throughout radio stations which are the genre of music that the magazine is about. This way, the more press it gets the higher the magazine sales would be.


Writing about what the readers would be interested in is also another way to get alot of readers, as if they see an article that affects them , they would be more likely to purchase it as they would want to read more into it and see what other people have been affected or even read about it to get more information.


Another way to attract a huge audience for the magazine is by word of mouth. once people get talking about this magazine, more and more people would be interested in what it is about and then want to purchase it. As long as people are constantly talking about it, then the chances of the sales increasing is very high.


Also the audience would have to be kept interested throughtout the whole magazine, so many featured articles that the reader would be interested in are put into the magazine so that they wont lose interest and would want to buy the next issue once it is out. This would help to attract a higher audience as when people read it and enjoy it, they would tell their friends who in turn would buy the magazine and be pleased with their purchase.


The school pupils will be kept interested in the magazine with weekly competitions in which they have to get the next weeks issue to find out who has won the main prize. This way they would be looking forward to purchasing it, and whilst this is going on they would read the rest of the magazine and take more interest in school.

Interesting reviews and interviews with pupils and teachers would also keep them interested so that pupils find out what teachers actually do out of school times, which is what all kids want to know. Each week would be a different teacher, so they would look forward to each issue to find out their secrets.
