The target audience that I will use for Gatorade is everyone, but the targeting strategy will have a primary focus on consumers that love fitness and athletics.

Being a person of sports and fitness, the brand ‘Gatorade’ is quite familiar. Gatorade isn't just any sports drink but a sports drink that is known for its exquisite taste and excellent job at replacing ones electrolytes.
