Audience Analysis is the process of understanding the characteristics, needs, and preferences of a specific group of people who will receive a message or content. This analysis helps communicators tailor their messages to ensure they resonate with the audience, making it more effective and engaging. By considering factors such as demographics, interests, and prior knowledge, communicators can adjust their tone, style, and content. This targeted approach increases the likelihood that the audience will connect with the message, leading to better comprehension and response.
