audience research-results and conclusions

what type of band do you prafair?

i askd this question to 20 people i gave them they option of
.a serious band
.happy and smiley band
.unique band
.entertaining band
it turned out that more people picked a uniqe band so this is what i am going to use because i think that people like a diffrense and like listening to strange and diffrent things i think if i do stick to an individual band than more people will buy the magazine.


do you like freebies in your magazine?

i askd this question to 20 people i gave them simple options
.yes
.no

it turned out that alot more people said yes so in my magazine i will give away free gifts , i think giving away free things in the magazine will atract more people because not only would they be getting a good magazine they will also be getting a free gift.



What is your gender?

i also askd this question to twenty people i gave simple choices again by saing
.male
.female

this question proved that feamales are more likley to read my magazine so ill make my magazine more deatailed for women so theynwill read it.


Do you like compertitions?

i askd this question to 20 people this was also very simple to answer
.yes
.no

most people answerd yes so i will use compertitions in the magazine i think if i do this than more people would buy it and more people will get involved in the magazine itselff.


What do you like reading about?

i askd this question to 20 people and i gave them the options of
.gig reviews
.articles
.cds
.festivals

it turnd out that most people voted for gig reviews so in my magazine ill include gig reviews this will get more people to read the magazine and it will also attract people to goto gigs and give more information to the magazine.


How old are you?

i askd this to 20 people and i gave them the options of
.16-19
.20-23
.24-27
.older

i found out that the age range of people who will read my magazone will be 16 to 19 this way more people will get envolved and read the magazine.


How often would you like your magazine to be published ?

i askd this to twenty people and gave them the option of
.once every month
.once every two weeks
.once every week

i found out that most people would by the magazine every two weeks so that is when im going to publish the magazine this way more people will buy it because they will have they amount of money for it and wont have to buy a cheaper one because they dont have enough.
