I made
a survey to ask people what they would want to find in a music magazine. This really
helped me in creating my own magazine as I found out what is popular and what isn’t.
Music
magazine survey results
Because
of the results of this question I am going to consider doing an R&B
magazine because this is the most popular genre. Indie and Rock were also quite
popular. I know not too do genres like Reggae, Jazz or pop because they aren’t
very popular.
From
this question I know that I shouldn’t release my magazine too much because not
many people regularly buy music magazines, this helps me with planning my
magazine because I now know how often I should release it.
This
response helps me and now I know I shouldn't price my magazine too highly, most
people are willing to pay £2.00-£2.50 for their music magazine therefore I will
price my magazine between £2.00 and £2.50
From
this question I have learnt what peoples favourite music magazine is, this
means I can look at these magazines and see what people like about them and why
they like them, then I can use these examples to help create my own magazine.
This
question tells me how often people would like my music magazine to be released,
knowing this I won’t release my magazine too often or not enough, I know
exactly what the audience wants.
This
question tells me that the audience do like free gifts with their magazine,
this helps me plan my magazine, now I know the audience likes free gifts and
this means I will give free gifts with my magazine and this way my audience
will be happier and will keep buying my magazine.
This
question is extremely helpful to me whilst creating my magazine. I know exactly
what people like to find, so I can feature these things in my own magazine.
This
question helps me when planning my magazine as it tells me what artists the
audience would like to see in my magazine so I can include what they want to
see.
This
final question tells me how people would like to access my magazine, so that I
can make it possible for them to find it on social networking sites and
magazine websites swell as a print magazine.
