2. Gender
I already knew that the amount of women would be a higher
number to men because I gave more questionnaires out to the
women. Therefore this result is slightly biased.
3. Age
I covered the full ranges of ages within my target audiences. However the
rage age for my questionnaire was 16. This shows that these results are also
biased because I asked more 16 year olds to fill out my questionnaire than
any other age range.
4. What 3 words do you associate with Indie
Music?
5 people out of the 20 I asked associated the
word ‘Guitar’ with Indie music. 4 out of 20
people gave the word ‘Original’ and a
number of people also associated items of
clothing and shoes with Indie music for
example: skinny jeans, vans, converse and
chinos. This will help me for when I am
creating my music magazine for what
smaller images to include in my contents
page or main image.
5. On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being most likeable and 5 being least
likeable. Please rate the following aspects of a magazine.
This answer shows me that Photographs and Reviews are the most likeable in a
magazine, this is a guideline for me to follow to make sure I include lots of photographs
and reviews in my magazine to make sure it will appeal to my target audience.
6. What is your favourite colour?
I asked 20 people what their
favourite colour was. 8 out of that 20
replied with their favourite colour
being blue and this being the most
popular. The Second most favourite
colour was Green with it being 4
peoples favourite colour. This helps
me to think of a relevant colour
scheme for my magazine.
7. How frequently do you buy music magazines?
This question was answered really straight forwardly and shows that the
majority of the people I asked buy a music magazine monthly, although quite a
lot don’t buy music magazines.
8. How much are you willing to pay for a music
magazine?
These results show that nearly half of the people I gave my questionnaire to, were
willing to pay £2-£3 for their magazine. This helps me for when It comes to creating a
reasonable price for my magazine.
9. Would you be interested in free gifts with your
music magazine?
With these results it shows that free gifts with my magazine would be
really popular with readers. Therefore free gifts will be included with
my magazine on a regular basis.
10. Would you be interested in tour dates of various
artists printed in the magazine?
With 80% of people being interested in having tour dates of various artists
and bands in the magazine it helps me decide what to include in my
magazine and what would be the most popular.
11. In a magazine would you rather read reviews by other music
magazine readers or artists and bands?
I asked the participants whether they would prefer the reviews to be
done by famous artists and bands or just regular music magazine
readers. The most popular answer was ‘Artists and bands’ therefore this
is what would feature in my Indie music magazine.
