I will use my research and analysis from part 1, to create a target audience for my personal magazine later on. I will focus on the demographics and psychographics, to add details to my magazine, that will attract certain groups or types of people to read my magazine. This is what I think the audience criteria would be for my magazine:
Demographics:
Age, Social Class, Education, Gender
Psychographics:
Interests, Quotes, How many pets they own

In conclusion, this is what I think would be the target audience for my magazine. It is not accurate, but it is a general idea, or thought of what the target audience would like, or look like.
