Questionnaire Results

Questionnaire Results

Q1. How often do you purchase music magazines?
I have considered and covered a range of how often someone purchases a music magazine. The majority of the people who completed my questionnaire purchase a music magazine either weekly or monthly. This means that my finished product will be biased towards this majority of people who took my questionnaire.

Q2. How much would you usually spend on a music magazine?
I have considered a range of prices in my questionnaire that could be spent on purchasing music magazines. The majority of people who answered my questionnaire spend between £1.50 and £2.50. These results suggest that I should price my magazine at £2.00

Q3. What are your top 3 favourite colours?
I asked for people to list their three favourite colours to help with the design of my magazine. The majority of the people that completed the questionnaire prefer the colours blue, red and green so the main colour scheme of my magazine will use those colours.

Q4. Who is your favourite Indie artist?
I asked the people who filled in my questionnaire who their favourite indie artist is to try and get an idea which bands I should feature in my own magazine. The most popular bands were Arctic Monkeys and Radiohead so these are the bands that I will feature in my magazine.

Q5. What three words would you associate with indie music?
I asked the people who filled in my questionnaire what three words they would associate with indie music. The words that were associated the most were independent and fresh so I will use one of these words in my magazine.

Q6. What features of current music magazines do you like?
I asked people what their favourite features of current music magazines to give me ideas of what features to use in my own magazine. The main features that were chosen were reviews and interviews so I will feature these in my magazine.

Q7. What features of current music magazines do you feel need improvement?
I asked the people who filled in my questionnaire what features of music magazines that they dislike. The main features that seemed to be disliked were Gig listings, free gifts and crosswords/quizzes. These results suggest that maybe I should not include these features in my magazine.
