5. Conclusion
I feel the results I achieved in this questionnaire were a lot more reliable than my
previous questionnaire as I specifically asked my target audience and so all feedback
I received was useful and relevant to me.
Everyone person I asked was male and four people were 16 and one being 17. They
were all White British and either listened to music, played video games or took part
in sports. Majority believed the double page spread was the best looking page
visually and content wise out of the three and all five members were able to tell it
was the R&B genre I was trying to replicate. This may be due to the masthead, colour
scheme or model as they all believed this was significant to the genre.
Overall, I could’ve asked people outside of my target audience in order to ensure I’ve
specifically targeted that group and if anyone outside of the target audience feels
they would buy or be persuaded to buy this magazine by some of the key features it
displays.
