For GCSE Business Studies I have to make a Business Plan for my coursework. I have decided to do a games shop. In the coursework we need to produce a questionnaire, and I thought if I’m doing a games shop, the best people to ask are gamers so here’s my questionnaire. Please could you take a few minutes and to fill it in
