Analysis of Survey Results

 From my survey I can use the most answered responses to come up with a main plan for my magazine. By following through with this research I can come up with the plans for my magazine, how I will lay it out and what I can put in it.  For my first question, i asked my demographic if they read music magazines, i did this because this way i would find out whether the magazine would be a good idea in the first place. The results i got were mostly all rounded and there wasn't a real ‘winner’ as such because of the range of answers. Secondly, to follow up this question, i then asked what brand of magazine and what genre of music magazine they read if they answered question one as ‘yes’. This then allowed me to follow up more research on what type of magazines they would be reading and get some ideas from them, which could improve my magazine vastly. For my third question, i asked which three colours my audience would like to see on a music magazine and the top three colours were black, red and white, which are the colours mostly used in the genre of music magazine i am going for, similar to Kerrang’s yellow, black, red and white magazine in which people answered with in the second question. Question 4 and 5 were loosely linked as the time of distribution and the price, for instance, if the product was to be released weekly, it would have to be cheaper. The most answered were weekly and the price of £1. Question 6 was about the content of my magazine and what people would like to see inside of it, which turned out to be Competitions, gigs and tours, posters and freebies and updates on less popular bands. Strangely enough, the next question was whether people would prefer free stuff to be in the magazine and if it would encourage them to buy it, and the majority vote was yes, which converged with the previous question. In question 8, my target audience claimed they would like to see a band as the main cover image on the magazine and then for question 9, they claimed that the adverts they wanted to see were about festivals and band products such as CD’s and Vinyls. Finally, for question 10, i asked where people would buy the music magazine from, and the most requested areas were small shops in the areas and large supermarkets. All of this can be used for elements in my magazine so it will appeal to my audience in the right ways, making it consumerable.
