There are fascinating differences between emerging economies and developed ones in how people consume news – and for that matter the role news plays in their lives. Understanding these differences will be critical to news organisations in a world where news has become global, and the biggest growth is coming from emerging economies. In quite possibly the biggest such survey of its kind, looking purely at news consumption behaviour, we spoke to over 12,000 people from 10 different countries. We will give you a glimpse into the outlook of 16-34 year olds on the world, the platforms and technologies they use, the role news plays in their lives and the implications for the BBC and other global organisations.
The world of communications has never changed so drastically in such a short time. Technology, or better yet, the accelerated growth of technology, is the main catalyst of this change. Moore, Intel's cofounder, observed that in the history of hardware computing, the number of transistors in an integrated circuit doubles every two years - a paradigm known as Moore's Law.
AOL's multi-national research, completed in October 2013, uncovered the value of multiple screens for online content and advertising. The research was conducted among respondents in the US and Canada who own computers, tablets and smartphones. Shapley analysis, a solution borrowed from Game Theory, was deployed to quantify the relative value of each screen through measuring how each enhances or degrades the overall consumer experience. Learn how and why people transition between devices for different types of content and the impact of advertising in a multi- screen context. The results will give marketers and content creators clear direction for communicating to consumers across these devices and within specific content genres.
Coca-Cola, as one of the global sponsors of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, engaged in discussions with BrainJuicer to develop and implement a tool for the continuous tracking of their integrated communication plans, which would be able to measure the effectiveness and contribution of each campaign, of each medium within the campaigns, and their impact on brand equity and consumption. This presentation demonstrates how an emotional approach to measuring campaign effectiveness was able to produce actionable results which allowed Coca-Cola to optimise their strategies, understand the importance of different media for campaigns as well as quickly react to extreme market conditions, focusing on relevant brand indicators that translated what was happening in the market in a powerful way.
Today, an increasing number of touch points compete for a fixed amount of consumer attention. Finding the right media mix is therefore crucial, all the more so in rapidly growing China. However, for many multinationals, the promise of Chinese riches remains unfulfilled. Understanding the peculiar role of digital in China's media landscape is essential for the business success of Western brands in this country. This session presents results from VivaKi's The Pool China study on the differences between advertising on TV versus advertising on online TV, the latter representing a growing segment of advertising budgets. This first ever multiscreen neuroscience study provides unified metrics on the visual attention and emotional engagement of consumers, helping marketers allocate ad spend across touch points for greatest effect.
Given the current economic times, marketers are looking to optimise every dollar invested in supporting brands and maximise any competitive advantage they can. This presentation reviews the basic principles of TV advertising response implied by the Global Ipsos Tracking databases and determines if they align with media buying practices throughout Asia Pacific. This process suggests there is considerable potential for improving advertising ROI across the region.
Social media are hot - Facebook, Twitter or YouTube- everyone can share viewer experiences. Rather than focus on the influence that 'new' social media have on television viewers, this paper stresses the importance of 'old' social viewing: watching television together within a household as well as outside the home (work place, pub, school). Although television is often experienced in the physical company of others, surprisingly little attention has been paid to the social impact by researchers. The 2010 FIFA World Cup illustrates the importance of television as a social medium.
This paper revisits predictions made in one of the very first papers about Return Path Data delivered in 2005 at WAM . Incorporating findings from a qualitative survey of clients conducted exclusively for this paper, the presenters examine how the new technique has evolved in terms of business need and research techniques. The unique aspects of both PeopleMeter and RPD data are contrasted to underline the complementary nature of both approaches.
As magazines are increasingly delivered in multi-platform digital formats, and the internet continues to grow as an advertising medium, the convergence of these two trends leads buyers and sellers to seek one single source for media and consumer purchase information. This paper describes the development of a cross-media consumer database including the 'split-weights congruent fusion' model used while highlighting the many insights gained from this important product with numerous examples. A key benefit of this fused database is the ability of magazines and national newspapers to prove the strength of their combined audience over traditional and digital platforms.
Most conference papers and presentations tend to focus on one of the following: users/buyers of products and services, brands, or methodology. This paper, by contrast, looks at market researchers themselves and asks whether social media in general and Twitter in particular are changing the way that researchers communicate with each other. The paper is complemented by an interactive event held at the ESOMAR APAC Conference in Bangkok (April 2010). The paper starts by providing some background information on Twitter, before moving on to explore the ways that market researchers are beginning to utilise Twitter, both as medium for research and as a method of opening up new and exciting channels (and back-channels) amongst researchers. The paper includes four in-depth reviews of the impact of Twitter in Australia, China, Japan and New Zealand. Finally, the paper draws the threads together in an overall summary and list of key recommendations.
