This document summarizes the results of a questionnaire about interests, content preferences, design choices and reading habits for a college magazine. Key findings include that sports, music and fashion are most popular interests to include in the magazine. Respondents preferred content about music over sports. They favored darker colors like blue and black in the design. Most would pay under £2 for the magazine and read it once a month. Features like freebies and a modern, classy theme were strongly preferred. A majority said they would read a college magazine, if released monthly.

From this data it is obvious that sport is a
very common interest / hobbies and is
something I should definitely include into the
magazine to achieve the most people
reading the magazine.There are other major
interests like music and fashion just behind
sport and is also something I should think
about adding to a magazine

Similar to the interests and hobbies people
want to see content which they are
interested in, which is obvious. Less people
want to see sport even thought they are
interested in the topic and instead a lot more
people wanted to know about music.

Its obvious and black and blue
are the favourite colours that
people would like to see,
along with more people
wanting dark colours
compared to bright. Colours
like yellow were not as
popular and this is because
yellow really is not a nice
colour to design with because
it is so bright.

People are not
willing to spend a
lot of money on a
magazine so when
designing and
producing the
magazine will have
to take in how
much people would
actually pay and is
it worth making,
will it make its
money back?Will
there be profit?

Amount
A lot of people don’t
read magazines and
those who do only
normally read them
once a month and
therefore I
shouldn’t release a
magazine too
frequently.

8. WOULDYOU LIKETO SEETHINGS
LIKE FREEBIES?

Freebies?
Yes No
Without a doubt it is obvious that
people want to see freebies in a
magazine with a vote of 93% to 7% it
is something I should definitely try to
add due to the demand.

Out of the numerous themes it is
obvious that people like the modern
and classy theme and I don’t blame
them, I should definitely refer to this
when designing the college magazine
as I obviously want people to like the
magazine for them to actually pick it
and up and continue to read on.
