This graph shows that most of the people I asked to fill in my questionnaire were within the age
rage 16-18. Therefore my magazine will be biased around their opinions.
Gender
Male Female
This is an equal spilt which just shows that I gave my questionnaire out to an equal amount of
females and males. However, my magazine will appeal to both the male and female audience.

Red Blue Green Orange Purple Yellow Black Pink
The main colour liked by 16-18 year olds was green. This could show by that I need to make
the main colour theme green in my magazine. It was closely followed by black and blue, so I
could use either of them instead.

The respondents of my questionnaire normally buy their magazines within a price range of
£1.50-£2.50. I will now price my magazine within that price rage as it is not too much money
but not too cheap.

No
It is obvious that people enjoy receiving free gifts in their magazines. Therefore I will include a
number of free posters, gig tickets and merchandise in my magazine.

pictures.

The results for this question show that ‘Indie’ music is the most popular type of music within the age

will appeal to a wide range of audience.

have too much information as the respondents found that boring and un-interesting.

Again it is obvious that the main attraction in magazines is pictures. My target audience found that they
have liked looking at the pictures in previous magazines they have brought. It is now clear to me that the
main focus of my magazine will be the pictures I take.
Would you ever subscribe to a magazine if
there was a choice?
Yes
No
This is not a clear result as only two more people chose yes to no. I will offer the chance to subscribe to
my magazine on the content page; therefore it is there if the audience wants to.
