2. Out of the 35 people who answered my questionnaire, 80% were within my target
audience age range of 16-25. This means that my results will be really helpful in
terms of what my target audience are looking for.
3. The majority of the people who answered the questionnaire were females. Because of
this, I will have to take into consideration that the vote was more influenced by women so
the answers will be more related to what they like rather than men.
4. Because 10 people answered £2 and 6 people answered £3.50, I decided to
meet half way and put the price of my magazine at £2.75 because this isn’t far
off my research prices of £2.60 and this puts my magazine on a level playing
ground when it comes to competing with other music magazines.
5. I would have to publish the magazine monthly because this got 65% of
the votes so it shows that it is more appealing to the target audience to
purchase monthly rather than the other options.
6. The most popular answer was for free gig tickets, which means I will have to use that
as a promotion on the front of my magazine cover as incentive for the reader to buy
the magazine and so it is more appealing to them.
7. Most people in my survey go to gigs a few times within the year which means
I should include gig reviews and tours quite prominently in the magazine.
8. Oasis got the most votes for this question which means I should focus on
making my magazine with the band in mind. This means making the artists
reflect similar attitudes and views to oasis or simply putting bands like oasis on
the cover to draw the readers attention. Arctic Monkeys and Catfish and the
Bottlemen also got a high number of votes which means I shall also keep these
in mind when thinking of names to put on the cover because these bands seem
to be very popular and would interest my target audience.
The Wombats, The Kooks, Two Door Cinema Club and The Stone roses all
managed to reach 10 votes each which shows me that these may not be the
most popular bands but my target audience have heard of them and like to
listen to them. I should again use this and make my magazine with these bands
in mind.
