College Magazine Audience Research

In order to prepare for my college magazine design I undertook a small piece of audience research - results are presented here:
Questionnaire

1. What gender are you?
· Male (4)
· Female (3)

2. Would you be interested in buying the college magazine?
· Yes (4)
· No (2)
· Depends (1)

3. Do you like college?
· Yes (5)
· No (2)

4. Do you have a job?
· Yes (2)
· No (5)

5. How much would you be willing to pay for a college magazine?
· 50p (6)
· £1.00 (1)
· £2.00

6. What would you like to see in the college magazine? Tick the ones that apply to you:
· Football (2)
· Gossip (3)
· Netball
· Badminton
· Horoscopes
· TV reviews
· College news
· Celebrities (1)
· Teacher interview’s (1)


7. Would you like to see more pictures in the magazine or more writing?
· More writing (1)
· More pictures (2)
· Bit of both (4)

8. How often should the college magazine come out?
· Once a week
· Once a fortnight (2)
Once a month (5)

9. do you have any hobbies? If so please right them below:
(football-4) None-3

10. Are you planning on going to university?
· Yes (3)
· No (1)
· Haven’t decided (1)
· Don’t know much about it (2)

As you can see from the following results listed above i asked 7 people in total, i am aware that this is very little and know that if i was to perform this task again i would need a lot more people for varied opinions. I asked mainly male students which i think then reflected in with having football as a hobbie and wanting to see football included in the magazine. 6 out of the 7 people i asked said they would be willing to pay 50p for the magazine, this then links in with the 'Do you have a job' question as 2 said yes and 5 said no. I decided to go for 50p as it was the most popular choice for the magazine and would be an affordable price. I thought i would also include a bit about unniversity as there were 3 out of 7 that wanted to go and 2 out of the 7 which didnt know much about it, this totals in at 5/7 that would be interested in reading this information. I decided it would come out once a month and would include a variety of pictures and writing so it was neither more of one or the other.
