List them and answer each one in the fullest detail possible.

Aim at one audience at a time. It’s a known fact, best sellers are directed at one audience. If your book has several audiences, don’t forget to develop a book in a series for each additional audience. Remember Chicken Soup for the Soul; they added a book for more than several additional audiences.
