target demographics

Marketing's chosen recipients

Target demographics are the specific groups of people a product, service, or message is designed to reach—defined by characteristics like age, gender, income, location, or interests.

Marketers identify target demographics to focus resources where they're most likely to succeed: The campaign's target demographics were women aged 25-40.

The singular target demographic refers to one such group.
