Matchbook Quesionaire 1 (pre-production)

Hello,

I am producing free match books that play the chorus of "Fucking Hippies" by Inn13, and contain a free mp3 download code. The main idea is that this will help to promote the release of the debut EP.

Please take the time to quickly fill in this questionnaire, this will help me to complete my dissertation! Thanks!

Are any (or many) of these things more likely to persuade you to buy a piece of music?

Reviews

Word of mouth recommendations (ie from friends)

Seeing a band live

Hearing the music online

Hearing the music being played in a social location (bar, club etc)

Promotional merchandise (Album t-shirts, Posters, stickers, flyers etc)

What formats of music do you BUY?

Do you actively listen to free downloads that are released by artists online? This applies to legal downloads only please!

I always check out a free download if available

I will often use free downloads to check out new bands

The offer of a free download is something that might make me check out a band

A free download would not effect me

If you were given a free match book that plays part of a song, and offers a free download code for one track, would this affect your interest in that artist?

Yes, it would increase my interest

It might do

No

Would this type of promotion make you more likely to buy music by that artist?

Yes

No

Yes, and I would be more interested in seeing them perform live.

No, it would not make me more likely to buy their music, but I would be more interested in seeing them live.

Anything to add on the idea of the match book?
