Graphs

Here are graphs showing the results of my questionnaire...

Question 1 - How old are you?

To get a better idea of who and what age group my magazine would be targeting I asked this question. It seems as I asked more people my age, 16 was the most common age. The pie chart also shows that the two other groups got the same results ( 17 & other). In fact the 'other' age group are made up of young adults ranging from 20 -24. To include all these age groups I decided to target the age group of 16 - 25 year olds. I did this as that way I will be ultimately targeting teenagers and young adults who I think are the age group that will actually purchase a music magazine.


Question 2 - What gender are you? 
I asked this question to know what gender my magazine would cater for. Out of the 15 people I asked, 11 were female and 4 male.


Question 3 - Which music genres are you most interested in? (Tick two)
 
I asked this question to find out what music genre my magazine will be focused on. Both the genres Rock and Hiphop got equal numbers with 7 people most interested but since the casting vote is with me, being the creator, I decided to do a magazine focused on the genre of rock. This is because I think my creativity will better in this genre. 


Question 4 - What colour scheme do you prefer?

I asked this question to see what type of colour scheme will most attract my audience. The majority wanted a bright and bold colour scheme and I agree with this. In order to engage my audience my magazine needs to stand out and bright and bold colours will do this.
  


Question 5 - Do you enjoy competitions in a magazine? 
 
I asked this question to see what would attract this audience. Unanimously the response were all yes and I agree that a magazine should include competitions to add interest for the audience.



 Question 6 - How often would you want this magazine?

I asked this question to find out what the audience thought about when this magazine should be coming out. The results were that the magazine should come out every month. 

Question 7 - What is your chosen price?  

I asked this question as I was intrigued in what the audience's preferred choice. I found the results very interesting as people were willing to spend the most expensive price out of this categories. At  the end of the day I do think that £2 is small fee for a magazine that would be coming out each month. That's why I decided to go in between of £2 and £2.50 to make £2.35. 


Question 8 - Would humour attract you as an audience?
Again as expected this was an unanimous result with all 15 people saying that humour would attract them.
 



Question 9 - How long do you prefer for this magazine to be? (pages)

I asked this question to see how long the audience thought was appropriate and preferred. The result was that the majority  thought that medium (20-25 pages) was the amount of pages that the music magazine should have. However I think that the magazine should contain more pages as there will be a lot of features included in a magazine and usually, as seen in professional magazines there are more pages than 20 or 25.

Question 10 - Do you think subscription should be included?

When I asked this question I was surprised that a number of them, especially out of the older people that I asked, already have subscriptions to various music magazines. The pie chart shows that 12 out of 15 people think that I should subscription should be included and I agree.
