How does your media product represent particular social groups?

The audience for my magazine, are males between the ages of 17 and 30, my audience are music lovers, and appreciate it in different ways. Many go to gigs and live concerts, and regularly check online for the latest news and event information. The music my audience listen to is most likely to be indie style music, and they also enjoy learning about upcoming bands. My audience don’t appreciate mass market music, and have an individualistic style. Due to their age, the audience will probably be single, and their social status will be in groups ABC1.
The psychographics for my magazine are that the majority of readers will be individuals, be passionate about music, and whom a lot will enjoy attending concerts. Their lifestyle will include being students, attending gigs, they may have a part time job, some may even be involved with music personally, such as being in a band, and they will probably enjoy going out and having a good time.

My magazine has a pro-consumerist stance; any products that are advertised in my magazine will both earn money and encourage my audience to buy certain products. My magazine is a great way for advertisers to target a specific audience and to create brand awareness of their products. Also through the use of advertising I can increase the income of the magazine considerably.
