Aim: To research and brainstorm the needs and desires of my target audience within Brighton so i can appeal to them effectively in my practical work.

1.According to your survey results, which things in life do your target audience prioritise?
  • They clearly prioritise listening to music as 90% of them said they listen to music for over an hour a week.
  • Streaming music and using YouTube to obtain there music as 42.11% of them chose it out of 5 options.
  • They also prioritise Nike over 4 other brands as it got 50% of the votes.

2.Which responses surprised you and why?
  • I was surprised that more people chose that they would prefer to win headphones over concert tickets.
  • No one enters any competitions in music magazines.
  • There was a 50/50 split between people that attend music events and festivals which was a surprise because I thought the majority of people of the age range that answered the magazine would attend music events on a regular basis.
3.What did you wish you had asked but didn't?
  • I wish I had asked if they were familiar with any Brighton bands then listed some popular Brighton bands.
  • Which Indie music magazine title they preferred then listed a few popular titles.
4.Which aspects of the Brighton music scene do you need to research the most?
  • Popular indie bands which are in or originated from Brighton.
