When giving out my survey, I decided to give the majority of
my surveys to my target demographic (young adults). I did this
to see what they like to apply these features to my magazine to
appeal to the target audience. I also gave out surveys to people
aged 40+ and 11-15 to get a range of results and to see
whether I could expand my target audience.

2. Favourite type(s) of music
Pop
Rock
Classical
Hip-hop
Rap
Country
Reggae
Indie
R&B
Other, please specify
These results clearly show that pop music is the most popular
genre of music. Indie and Rock music are also very popular
genres. From these results I know that to make my magazine a
success with the target audience I should make my magazine a
pop magazine.
