Reach the Right Audience
How to reach the right audience?
When you think about what is the best way to reach your audience you have to use analysis of a few factors and use them to plan strategy, style, newsletter and sell sheets, or visual presentation.
Different audiences have different needs:
Demographic factors
Age, gender, religion, education level, income, and location
Let’s talk about age. The way of thinking suffers some changes in the growing up process, people’s priorities, and perspectives change and you need to shape the description of your book in relation to the audience which you want to target.
Gender is just as important as religion is and if you don’t choose the right audience your book has no chance from the very beginning.
Education level and income play their role in the buying habits of your readers, and you have to keep in mind the location in your marketing campaign.
Personality
If you manage to understand the target reader’s personality, this will help to make the message of the book more effective. Knowing your audience is key to marketing success.
In order to identify the personality preferences of your readers you have to keep in mind the four basic dimensions of your book’s characters:
Introvert – Extrovert
Sensing – Intuitive
Thinking – Feeling
Judging – Perceiving
The secret is to find your character’s strengths and give readers logical reasons for reading your book. This satisfies the needs of your readers who are thinking types.
Values and beliefs
Here the analysis is focused on values and beliefs, goals, and lifestyles. Find out what is important for your readers, and then it will be much easier to organize the information about the book in a way that seems natural and real to your readers even if it is a work of fiction.
Building effective messages
What do you really want when marketing your book is to match the reader’s habits with their environment and influence their reading attitude and reading choices.
You can do this by finding uniform groupings who are keen on the same subject or settings as in your book.
People’s culture is defined by their values, philosophies, and attitude and reveals itself in their myths, heroes, and stories or the allocation of space.
