I chose to have a variety of genres/ages for my audience profile as I want my magazine to appeal to a wide audience ranging from 15-25 year olds. From the information I have gathered, people who enjoy Popular music all like the same type of artists/magazines, therefore giving me inspiration in how to present my magazine to my audience.
