People were asked their favourite colours, a range of results were given however there was a clear trend, blue (15), black (11) and white (8) were the most common choices whereas orange and yellow were a lot less popular. The subjects were also asked whether they would prefer a bright or darker colours scheme, 5 said bright whereas 14 said dark. This backs up the chart results as black and blue are darker colours, therefore the magazine style will be darker, colder colours.

Since all of the people asked were students they were all around the same age, however most of them were sixteen (27) suggesting that the magazine needs to be targeted to younger students who are wanting to read the college magazine.

The students were asked if they read magazines and if so how often, just as many people said they don’t read magazines as those who read it monthly. This shows that the magazine needs to be published monthly, to keep readers interested, but also to make the magazine very appealing by making sure all of the content is interesting but more importantly that the cover is exciting and eye catching so that students are attracted to it and more will read it.
Freebies Sales
yes no
There is a clear positive correlation to people wanting freebies, therefore to persuade readers to buy the magazine freebies, competitions and offers should be included, all of these things will be important factors fro students, however only a couple should be included in each issue so that people are also buying it for the content

This shows that people are going to be more likely to buy the magazine if it is more simple and modern, instead of lots of bright bold colours that look complicated and childish. There is a link between these results and the favourite colours, since a lot of people there wanted classy and more formal colours rather than bright and informal such as yellow or pink.
