My Reader Profile

A reader profile outlines your ideal reader; this could be based on yourself or someone else that you have made up. It will help you to decide how your magazine will be.

Gender: Female
Age: Late teens 18 - 21
Genre of music: Mixture of mainstream pop, R&B and general music. However, no heavy metal or rock.
Likes: To know about celebrity lives, to know what new music there is, gig dates and info (mixture of information about the artists and the music).
Dislikes: Major stories on the lives of celebrities being hyped up! Magazines that aren’t clear on their purpose.
Outlook on life: Fun, out going, not too serious about social life, likes to be with friends and family. Likes to be themselves and have fun in their spare time. However, serious about work and what they want to do in life.
Interests: Being with friends and family, having a laugh with the people closest to them, reaching their goals in life.

To summarise my ideal reader would be someone who can look at life from a serious perspective and see the fun side of life as well. Someone who can go out and enjoy themselves in their spare time however, when they have work to do they can be serious about it and be focused. They would be someone who is focused on where they’re going in life but still see the silly side of things such as celebrity lifestyles.
The kind of magazine they would read would be light-hearted in some aspects but also get down to the nitty-gritty.
