To attract their target audience, the author conducted a questionnaire of 20 people who looked like they would read a rock magazine. The questionnaire asked how often they buy music magazines, how much they are willing to pay, what they want to see in a magazine, and what they don't like in current magazines. The results of the questionnaire helped the author design their magazine around what readers expected and wanted, so it would interest people who read similar rock/alternative magazines and build a fan base.

1. Q5. How did you
attract/address your
audience?

2. To attract the audience I
wanted I asked people who
look like they’d read my
magazine and asked them to
fill out a questionnaire about
what they’d expect from a rock
magazine.

3. Attracting my audience
To attract my audience I asked 20 people to fill out a questionnaire which had
different sorts of questions on such as how often do you buy music magazines and
how much are you willing to pay for a music magazine. This questionnaire helped
me a lot because I knew what kind of things people expected from music
magazines and the questionnaire made me base most of my magazine on the
results. I did this because then my magazine would interest most people who read
other rock magazines. I think this is good because it reaches out to people who like
rock/ alternative music and creates a fan base for my magazine. Some of my
questions were what would you want in a music magazine and is there anything
you don’t like in the current magazines you read. This is a very important question
because the results for this can bring in or take out a lot of readers because what I
out in the magazine needs to be things they want to read. I asked what they don’t
like in music magazines so I know not to put these things in because it will bring
more custom and more people will be interested.
