Lucy Bennett created an 11-question survey on Google Forms to evaluate what content should be included in her music magazine. She shared the survey on her blog and social media to gather responses from family, friends, and others. Most respondents were female, between ages 10-16, listened to pop music, and enjoyed reading magazines for freebies and competitions. Based on the results, Lucy plans to target her magazine at teenagers and focus on pop artists, include freebies and competitions to attract readers, and sell issues for £1.50 which was the most popular price point.

1. Questionnaire
Evaluation By Lucy Bennett

2. I first devised a set of questions to ask the general public. I
then created a form on Google drive and added my
questions to it, I published the questionnaire on my blog
to make sure that people filled in my questionnaire I asked
family members and friends to fill it out, to stop biased
results I published a link to my blog page on twitter and
asked if people would fill it out. I made a questionnaire so
it would help me choose what things to put in my
magazine. In this slide share I have shown my findings and
what I will be planning on including in my music
magazine.

3. Question 1; are you male or female?
This question helped me see what
genre I should aim my magazine
for. I also get to see which genre
prefers to answer my
questionnaire. This shows that 64%
who answer this questionnaire is
female, the other 36% is male.

4. Question 2; How old are you?
From pie charts and the list I
can see that most of the
people who answered my
questionnaire are aged 10-16
with 44% however 17-22
wasn't far behind with 36%
because for this I can aim my
magazine at these two
audience types.

5. Question 3; Would you subscribe to a
magazine?
This question is important as that it
informs us on whether or not
people would keep reading my
magazine when I publish one. The
answers tell me that most people
would subscribe meaning that
most of the people that would read
mine would also carry on reading if
I published more than one.

6. Question 4; How often would you buy a
magazine?
Having them fill out my
questionnaire I am able to see
that most people (36%) would
buy a magazine weekly, in the
future when designing my music
magazine I will take this in
consideration.

7. Question 5; How much would you pay for a music
magazine?
I will being selling my future
magazine for £1.50. I am selling
it at this price because the
highest amount was between
50p-£1.49. I think this price is
reasonable and people from
working class and middle class
are able to afford buying a music
magazine at this price.

8. Question 6; What music genre do you listen
to?
Pop seems to be the most
popular among the people who
filled out my questionnaire. This
has pushed me towards setting
my genre round pop music and
chart music.

9. Question 7; who are your favourite
artists?
Looking at my results for this
question I can see that most
artists who are in the charts
recently have been voted for.
This has helped my decide what
music genre I should choose.

10. Question 8; What music magazine do you
read the most?
This question gave me an insight
into what kind of magazines the
people who answered my
questionnaire reads this question
helped me see who's magazine I
should base mine on and what
kind of genre I should chose for
my future magazine.

11. Question 9; What interests you the
most about a magazine?
Freebies was the most
common, the front cover
came second, this shows that
making the front cover look
interesting and good is
important to selling the
magazine. From this
information I can see that
including freebies would help
sell a magazine.

12. Question 10; Do you mind full page
advert?
When I make a magazine I need to take
into consideration adverts. Looking at
magazines out there I have noticed that
there are many adverts in a magazine,
most often or not they are full page. I
included this question to see if people are
bothered by this. My findings show that
56% are bothered meaning that if I don't
included full page adverts in my own
magazine then it will keep people happier.

13. Question 11; Would you enter a
competition if it was in the
magazine?
I asked this question because I
wanted to know if competitions
was a way of attracting my
audience. Looking at the results I
can see that yes competitions do
attract my audience and people
prefer to enter competitions.
