对话文本
A: What's our target audience for this campaign?

B: This go-around we're focusing on new moms, families with median income and one or more children under the age of two.

A: Do you think that's much different from the soccor moms we tailored the last campaign for?



B: Well, there are some similarities that come up. Because both groups are made up of mothers… so as before, we can play up on maternal instincts, hygiene, safety, along those lines. But that being said, there are some specific differences that come into play because we are dealing with mothers of infants here.

A: Right, that makes sense. What's the average age?

B: Demographics say an average age of 28.7, educational background of university or post-grad, annual household income of 40-50K a year.

参考翻译


这次活动的目标消费者是什么人?

我们这次促销活动的重点集中在新妈妈身上,中等收入家庭并有一两个两岁以下的孩子.

你认为这次与我们上次的目标(中等收入的家庭妇女)有很大不同吗?

是这样,因为两个群体都有妈妈组成,因此存在一些相似之处…所以像以前一样,我们可以强调母亲的本性,在广告中加上卫生,安全等文字.但是虽然如此,一些细小的差别也会起作用,因为我们这次的目标是幼儿的妈妈.
你说得对,这有道理.那平均年龄是多少?

人口统计表明平均年龄是28.7,教育背景是大学或研究生,每家的年收入是4-5万美元.
