Questionnaire Results

As well as the poll on my blog I also handed out written questionnaires with the same questions in order to get proper feedback and real answers because not many people actually answered the questionnaire on my blog. However, the results from both questionnaires gave the same answers generally.

What price do you expect to pay for a music magazine?

The majority of the votes from this poll were in the option of between £2-£2.50 which shows that my initial ideas of what my target audience are willing to pay is different as they are willing to pay more for their magazines. The second most popular answer for this question was the category of £1.50 - £2 so I will also take this into consideration and price my magazine around that.

Please pick your favourite magazine:

The majority of the votes went to the magazine 'VIBE' which shows that my target in audience are interested in my genre and I will aim to use VIBE as a guide in creating my 3 products by following its conventions.

What is your favourite genre of music magazine?

For this question the most popular vote was the one I had hoped for as it was R&B/Hip-Hop. This means that my target audience are interested in my genre of magazine as opposed to the other options. The R&B option won around 80% but the second favourite was the genre of pop. This fits into the younger audience and will offer my magazine a unique selling point by including pop elements.

Which age range are you?

The majority of these answers were in the category 16-20 which is exactly the age I was hoping would answer the questionnaire as it is the age range of my target audience. This tells me that the other answers are from people I am targeting therefore the information is stuff I can use.

Which gender are you?

Although I am targeting mainly teenage boys, this question showed that girls also answered the questions and also had the same views generally which is good as it widens my target audience. The majority of people however that answered were male which is good as it means my results are accurate towards my target market.
