The audience were both loyalists who were unsure in joining the American rebels and the rebels who were leaning towards the side of the loyalists. It was written in such a way that common people could interpret concepts and to promote the rebellion. The technique was to use what Thomas Paine thought was "common sense" to persuade people into believing what he expected to be an obvious thing.

Common sense was intended for the general American population. Until then most pamphlets were written in "legalize." Paine wrote for the average literate American and used common language and logical arguments that cited references familiar to his audience. He often refers to The Bible, john Locke, and plain ole common sense.
