3. Target Market(s)
The age market we are trying to allure is anyone from the age of 15 to 60, male and female. The new autumn collection of baby wear is coming in, in a few days so I would like to try to target young parents by having a crawl walk by a few babies dressed in Bonds. Bonds have a large range of underwear, hosiery and clothes for all ages and sizes. To make it a great commercial I plan on using professional models and dancers on set, all will be wearing Bonds
