12. Conclusion
If I want to distribute the magazine locally just in Bradford, I might have to write also about Asian
Rap/Hip-Hop artists because 44% of the people I asked were Asian. It starts locally but then it
expands and I have to write about more international things.
By the statistics 8% of the people I gave the questionnaire to would definitely buy my
Rap/Hip-Hop magazine.
I can raise that number if I design my magazine suitable for young people for example with many
images , using language which attracts to young people and writing about matters which they are
interested in.
My magazine will cost £2.50 because this is what most people would agree to spend on a magazine.
I also can distribute my magazine by putting it online and give people the opportunity to order it
from a delivery.
Because nobody minds, and most of them like free offers in a magazine, I will also put a free offer
in my magazine.
In this way I can target my audience in a widest possible range.
