Client/Stakeholder You would want to target these people because they will be the ones with money and provide you with the funding needed to push your product. Age/Experience Both age and experience will play a special role into this because the younger crowd will want to have the latest products released in order to be relevant in society.

Other (specify) Environment Analysis: What special adaptations may be necessary for the environment or situation of the presentation? Size Size will be important in the matter of formatting and computer space, you do not want to offer up an operating system that will take up a vast majority of your computer memory system. Physical setting The physical system will not play too much of a role because it is something that the user will not see unless if you are presenting what the software will look like onto a computer. Audience knowledge Presenting to an audience that has a knowledge of understanding of what you are talking about or presenting forces you know what you are presenting to them and may allow you to go into more depth then what you may have presented to someone who may not know as much. Audience interest/focus Keeping the audience focused and locked into what you are saying is important because they will simply lose interest into what you are saying and could potentially lose possible clientele. Attitude toward topic Having a positive attitude of what you are saying is going to keep the interest of the audience because they are going to see that you are actively interested and feed off of your energy and want to learn more. Speaker credibility Being a credible speaker is going to bring more of an audience base because everyone will know that you are positive speaker, know what you are presenting and give out the best information to them. Occasion This will be important because you do not want to give a presentation on Christmas when everyone minds are not focused on what you are saying or presenting and all they want to do is go home. So having the right occasion can be important when presenting.
