Know Your Audience

This is about someone who is giving a presentation about their comic book collection to an art class at a local community college. It explains that no matter if you are writing-a presentation, report, letter, or a memo, you need to know the needs of the particular audience. You need to find out who your audience will be and the types of questions they may ask. Also be sure that you leave enough time for questions at the end of your presentation.
·         Who will read or see this piece of writing
·         What do I want them to know
·         What background do they bring
·         What do I want this piece of writing or presentation to accomplish
It is good to understand your audience because you don’t want to bore them and you wan to be sure you give the information in a way they understand.
