Main Task: Audience Research

This is my audience research on my Music Magazine, There were several different ways of gathering my Audience research, but I chose to do mine electronically and handing out papers is a bit dated, so I gathered mine using blackberry Messenger (BBM) I used an application which allows you to screen munch any selected screen.
I also downloaded images from the internet then synced them into my Blackberry, and used these images for my research.

After conducting my Audience research, I found out my target audience would prefer the pricing to be a bit lower hence I had to think about if profit still be made if my pricing was lowered. Also I found out modern youth of today would prefer a big bold Title (Masthead) that was easily recognisable from a distance, thirdly i discovered I would have to feature big names such as Rick Ross, Benny Banks e.t.c. On the hand, I discovered my audience wouldn't like my the name of the magazine to be similar to any existing magazine.

Lastly, I discovered my audience were more willing to purchase my magazine on a consistent basis which meant every single piece of fact from the music industry had to be in 'Sources'!!!

I found using BBM muncher very useful because I could gain information quickly and didn't cost me any money at all.
