In my questionnaire I asked a total of ten people, both quantitative and qualitative questions.

This was so I can find out more about the target audience of the magazine that I produce. I asked both males and females aged between 16 -18 to answer my questionnaire to get an overall idea from both genders. This is also because I want my music magazine to be attracted towards both genders of this age group.
