Abstract
1988 Camel Family: Magazine Selection Presentation. Declares audience composition and coverage: target male smokers 18-24 and 18-34, plus a breakdown of educational level (high school graduate or less; non-high school graduate). Key considerations for magazine include young adult editorial focus and delivery of target psychographics and lifestyle characteristics. Categorizes magazines (Hot Rod, Guns + Ammo, Sports Illustrated, Playboy, Rolling Stone) according to these considerations and divides their information to 2 groups. Also categorizes by magazine focus -- music, sports, "men's services." Lists additions (cable Guide, Salute, Skiing) and deletions (National Enquirer, Stereo Reviews). Includes National Magazine schedule and type of ad (4 page insert, etc.)

Handyman/Home Mechanix
Audience psychographics and lifestyle.are less
compatible.
Magazine environment lacks relevance for the
brand.
Games/Stereo Review Insufficient coverage of target.
Budget-constraints.
