Music Magazine Results & Analysis

Audience Research – Result and Analysis

For this task I had to produce a survey, by doing this survey it gave me a basic idea of what people would like to see in a music magazine, these ideas will help me understand on what hold is put inside the magazine and how I should present it. After handing out my survey these are my results.

1.
Out of the twenty people that done the questionnaire most of them were 16 (11 people), there was also a couple of 17 year olds (9 people) who had participated but there was no 18 year olds that was given this survey.

2.
My chart shows to me that I have given out my survey to more girls than boys therefore this magazine will probably be more appealing to girls. I should have considered and gave out my survey equally: 10 to boys and 10 girls, however I will probably create a magazine not appealing to gender but appealing to age groups.

3.
According to my Pie chart most people had said that they had got their music magazine from shops. A few had said that they were subscripted to magazines and only a minimum had said they got their magazines from the internet.

4.
This chart shows to me that majority of people had wanted games to be involved within the magazine; only one out of a possible twenty didn’t want games included in the magazine.
5.
According to my result chart it shows to me that generally people want the magazine to involve both sorts of language so that it is understandable to all people when reading this magazine. However from the two more people had chosen the magazine to be more modern so that it interacts with them more.

6.
This result bar chart shows to me that the people who had taken this survey clearly state they are mostly interested in RnB, Bashment, Funky house and other types of music.
7.
According to my results it clearly shows that people are most interested to see new comers being interviewed that already well know celebrities. Only a small percentage chose both.

8.
This chart shows me that everyone who had taken my survey feels that they should be getting samples along with the magazine purchased.

9.
This show to me that most people are willing to pay for the magazine at a price range of 50p-£1.00 the next favourite choice is the magazine at price £1.50-£2.00 only five out of twenty chose this option and the rest of the prices was not chosen.
10.

This was my last question and my results show to me that when a magazine is looked at he most appealing thing to them are images that are used.
11.

This result has shown me that more people said yes to have a comment box at the end of the magazine so that suggestions can be given on things such as who should be interviewed next. Only seven out of twenty said no.
Conclusion

After doing a pie chart for each of my questions that was asked in the questionnaire it had gave me a good idea on what is required in music magazine for people to be appealed to and people would pick it up to read. These results had told me that the magazine that I am about to create should be targeted at more of a younger age group therefore by creating a magazine more suitable for the younger age I don’t have to specifically target it at a specific gender. Also my results have told me if i sell my magazine in a store at a price of 50p-£1.00 my magazine will be sold more. Also when creating my magazine I must include games as it was stated that people would like to see games in the magazines. Also the language used should be more modern so that it interacts more with my target audience. Finally people had said images attract more and that they will love to see more rising stars being interviewed along with a page on the internet were comments can be left for suggestions.
