Questionnaire Analysis

Questionnaire analysis

I posted a questionnaire on survey monkey which would give me advice on what the public would want when I design my music magazine.

The first question I asked was ‘what is your gender and age?’  The age range I mostly got responses from where around 17- 20 years old. 84 % where females and 16% where males who responded to the questionnaire. This shows that my main target audience will be females aged in the teens.

The second question I asked was ‘How much are you willing to pay for a music magazine which will be published weekly?’ 31% said that they are willing to spend £1.50 and then close behind was £2.50-£3.00 which is what 21%. £1.50 is a very reasonable price for a weekly magazine.

The third question I asked was ‘What genre of music are you mostly interested in?’ which majority of 63% said pop. This will fit in really well with my theme of charts music as majority of music is pop in the charts.

The fourth question I asked was ‘Do you keep up to date with the music charts regularly?’ 58% said yes they do keep up to date with the music charts and 42% said no they don’t. My magazine is going to be based around the music charts so I am glad that a lot more people said yes to this question.

The fifth question I asked was ‘Do you download music or purchase the CD?’ 53% said they download music and 47% said they purchase CD’s. This gives me a clear idea of the type of advertisement to put in my music magazine.

The sixth question I asked was ‘Who are your favourite artists at the moment?’ the five top artists that got the most comments was Matt Cardle, Sam Smith, James Bay, Ed Sheeran and Little mix. This shows me that Male solo artists are what people are most interested in listening to at the moment.

The seventh question I asked was ‘Rank the features in order which you would mostly like to see in a music magazine?’ there was seven options and the order received was: 1. Concerts, 2. Interviews, 3. new releases, 4. Top 40, 5. Quiz, 6. Album/single reviews, 7. Competitions. I will be taking this order into consideration and making sure at least something on the top five is in my music magazine.

The eighth question I asked was ‘What would attract you to the front cover of a music magazine?’ which 79% said a famous person. Which shows that when making my magazine placing a singer on the front cover will make it attractive.

The ninth question I asked was ‘What colours attract you to magazines?’ the six top ones we received where black, white, red, yellow, pink and blue.  This gives me some colours to consider when making my magazine.

The tenth question I asked was ‘Do you like to see advertisement in a magazine?’ 50% said yes and 50% said no. so In my magazine I will be putting advertisement.
