The document profiles three individuals - James, Robbie, and Ellie. James enjoys some of the bands that would be featured in the magazine but not most, so he would be less likely to buy it. Robbie enjoys punk-rock music and most of the bands featured, regularly attends concerts, and is heavily involved in music, so he would buy the magazine. Ellie only listens to pop singles and has no interest in the bands featured, so she would not buy the magazine.
2. Age: 16 years

Interests: Playing and making video games, watching movies, spending time with friends, football.
Favourite bands: The Killers, Neck Deep, Bring Me The Horizon, Green Day, Fall Out Boy, Hoodie Allen, Panic At The
Disco, The Hunna
Why he would/wouldn’t buy my magazine: James enjoys listening to some of the bands that I plan to include in my
magazine and he enjoys listening to rock music occasionally therefore there is a chance that he would buy my
magazine. However, he enjoys listening to other genres of music and doesn’t listen to all or most of the bands/artists that
I plan to include therefore he would be less likely to buy it as he would not be interested in most of the bands; only a
select few.
3. Age: 17 years
Gender: Male

- Studied business at Sunderland College.
Interests: Going to concerts, listening to vinyls, spending time with his girlfriend.
Favourite bands: Creeper, The Story So Far, Panic At The Disco, Moose Blood, Real Friends, Sleeping With Sirens,
Black Veil Brides, Neck Deep.
Why he would/wouldn’t buy my magazine: Robbie would buy my magazine as he enjoys listening to punk-rock music
and he listens to most of the bands that I plan to include in my magazine. Robbie attends concerts regularly and has
been in a band himself; showing everything he does involves music. On social media, he uploads lyrics and pictures of
his favourite bands regularly meaning that music plays a large role in his life and that he has a large knowledge of
bands and artist. He wears vans, checked shirts, skinny jeans and band merch on a regular basis which is an outfit
which I described in my proposal as a stereotypical person who would buy my magazine.
4. Age: 17 years
Gender: Female
Occupation: Student with a part time job.
- Studies Geography, Maths, Sports and Sociology at St Roberts sixth form
Interests: Going out with friends
Favourite bands: Prefers singles in the charts – no favourite bands.
Why she would/wouldn’t buy my magazine: Ellie wouldn’t buy my magazine as she does not listen to any of the
bands/artists that I plan to include therefore she wouldn’t want to know more about them. She listens to mainly pop
music that is in the charts and doesn’t have any deep interest in music; she only listens to singles and doesn’t care for
artists. She has attended a few concerts/festivals however she does not attend them on a regular basis.
