Writeup of Questionnaire Results.

Analysis of Results writeup.

The name of my magazine will be Indie-Pendant as 30 people preferred this magazine name to the other choices. I feel that this magazine title name will fit in more with my magazine style and layout. The age range of the people asked was between 0-41+, and the majority of the people that took the questionnaire were between 11-20 years of age. This is ideal as they will be the niche market for my teenager targeted magazine.

The colour schemes that were chosen for my magazine were orange, red and yellow colours. I feel that this colour scheme would work well for my magazine and I will use this colour scheme throughout as bright and vibrant colours are vital to stand out to attract the attention of the consumers on the magazine shelf. I will also include the colour black to give the magazine an edgy look, and black will make the page become bolder and will stand out.

Additionally, the music genres that were favored to feature in my magazine were jazz and rock bands. I will use jazz and rock bands in my magazine to meet the requirements of my target audience so more people will purchase the magazine. I will also feature some pop and indie bands to also tie in with the jazz and rock theme, and to possibly expand my target market so more people will be interested in my magazine.

From my research, the majority of the people interviewed wanted a celebrity interview in the magazine. I have decided to feature a celebrity interview within my magazine to expand the audience of my magazine to feature the celebrities fan base, so they will be interested in “Indie-Pendant” and to keep my readers entertained with celebrity content.

Although most people from my research would only pay up to £1.00 for my magazine, I have decided to set the price a little higher at £1.50 as I felt that £1.00 was too cheap for my magazine price. Looking at the prices of NME (£2.20), Kerrang (£2.20) and Q (around £3.50), I didn’t want to set my magazine too cheap.

My magazine will become weekly to tie in with most other mainstream magazine to make sure the consumers get up to date information on their favourite music bands. Most people from my research wanted a free poster in my magazine. I will give the free poster gift so my consumers feel valued.
