Target audience

Category: Strategy

A target audience is the specific group of people or businesses a marketing initiative is designed to reach. This includes considerations such as industry, job role, company size, behaviours, and needs to ensure messaging is relevant and focused.

 

Clearly defining the target audience helps B2B marketers tailor content, channels, and positioning to resonate with the right buyers at the right time. It reduces wasted spend and increases the likelihood of meaningful engagement.
