Explain why the characteristics in demographic analysis are important in the delivery of a speech

What will be an ideal response?

The characteristics in the demographic analysis such as age, gender, education, group membership, and cultural and ethnic background can affect a listener's reception of a speaker's message. Each variable will therefore help determine the goals and appeals that will be used in the speech. They will determine how the speaker will frame the ideas used, the appropriate supporting materials to employ, and how the speaker will say his/her message.
