Target Audience's Communication Behavior
Our target audience are primarily students from University of Sydney; with the main focus on those who just graduated from high school. They are mainly in the 16-23 age group, and consist of both domestic and international students. Their main form of communication style is via social media, especially for interacting with friends as opposed to academic-related purposes (Gallardo-Echenique, Bullen & Marqués-Molías, 2016). As a student in the Australian context, my main sources of social media platforms with my peers include: Facebook, Instagram, WeChat, Snapchat, WeChat. In contrast, Twitter and LinkedIn are more orientated towards industry professionals, academic members. Couldry (2013) suggests that social media has become the centre of our everyday routines and people adapt their social and cultural processes around it through our habits. The kinds of behaviours include taking selfies, posting food pictures (Sensis, 2018). According to Sensis (2018), for 18-29 years old, they spend average amount of 6hrs time online on social media. It is evident that social media has caught the majority of university students’ attention on a daily basis.
