Male or Female?

Female

Male

I sent my questionnaire out to 20 people altogether. I decided to make it fair I would send it to 10 female and 10 male. I did this so I would gain back accurate feed back depending on different genders. I also decided to do this because I don’t want my magazine to be gender specific. I have decided before hand that I want my magazine targeted at an age range rather than a gender so that my magazine has a mass target audience.

Looking at the results from my questionnaire involving age it proves that most people I questioned were within the age range of 16-25. Most of these people would be classed as teenagers/young adults.

(If previous answer is no) Would you consider buying a music magazine?

9 out of the 20 candidates who filled out my questionnaire already purchase music magazines. Although this is good to know that people are interested and do enjoy purchasing magazines it puts out more competition to convert those who are already settled with a music magazine to consider glancing into mine.

Luckily out of the 11 who stated they wouldn’t consider purchasing one. My task is to create my magazine and then ask these same 11 people if they would consider purchasing my music magazine.

How often would you buy a music magazine?

Every day

Once a week

Once a fortnight

Once a month

No one would consider purchasing a magazine daily. Which as a good thing, magazine companies would not have enough time to collect and process into a magazine daily. Also due to funding it would make the task impractical. I have found most people like a longer time gap between issues such as fortnightly or even monthly. I feel that a fortnight is a good limit between issues. There is enough time to collect and processes all new top news and gossip. Also not loosing out in any profits or sales as this time limit is what satisfies my target audience best.

Which primary colour attracts your attention

most?

Red

Blue

Yellow

The reason I asked about colour is to define a theme colour for the magazine I am going to produce. I decided to not become excessive with the scheme and because I don’t want my magazine to be gender specific so I didn’t include stereotypical colours for a reason. I decided to stick with the 3 primary colours because as research points out, these colours attract the eye most. So these colours a good starting point for grasping attention.
