Audience Research-Results

In a group we came up with these 10 questions for students around college to answer, so we could get some feed back to help us with some ideas of what they would want the college magazine to look like and what information they would want inside it. So these are the resluts, we found out most of the students would like to have music in the magzine and discounts on like clothes, food shops and shops like WHsmiths. The 3 most popular colours were black, pink and blue which all of these colours suit both boys and girls. Most of the students would want a female on the front of the page and also that students would most likely pay 50p for the magazine. Also the style of magazine the students wanted is cool, fun and this is because a students life is happy and having lots of fun.
