Addressing a potential fan base for my magazine was no issue for me, as the target market for my magazine revolves around youth, ageing from 16-22. This was ideal for me as the pupils at my school ranged through these ages and a little below. However when referring to the 21/22 year old bracket. I focused on the era that my brother possesses, for him and his friends are greatly interested in this genre of music I asked them to be part of my surveys/evaluations. Therefore all areas of my target audience were met.
When attracting potential buyers/readers of a magazine of this genre I did various things, I went along with my brother to certain Gigs (mainly involving Death of an Artist) and took the views of those people who's lives revolved around this style of music/media. They all gladly participated in answering the questions within my questionnaire which helped me to take an overall view from all ages within my target audience. I also posted notes throughout my facebook page, using web 2.0 interactivity, to help people find the band's page, once again recruiting more people to help me with my evaluation and research.
