C. Nielsen, SMRB, and MRI. Secondary research Background research that uses available published information about a topic Secondary information sources, e.g. government organization, trade association, secondary research suppliers, secondary information on the Internet. Qualitative Research Qualitative research provides insight into the underlying reasons for how consumers behave and why. It is used early in the process of developing an advertising plan or message strategy for generating insights, as well as questions and hypotheses for additional research. Pros: (1) confirming hunches; (2) ruling out bad approaches and questionable or confusing ideas; (3) giving direction to the message strategy. Cons: not able to draw conclusion Quantitative Research Quantitative research delivers numerical data such as number of users and purchases, their attitudes and knowledge, their exposure to ads, and other market-related information. Two characteristics: (1) large sample sizes; (2) random sampling. It is usually designed to either accurately count something, such as sales levels, or to predict something, such as attitudes. The Uses of Research Market information Consumer insight research Media research Message development Evaluation research Market Information Market research is used to gather information about a particular market – consumers, as well as competitive brands. Market information includes everything a planner can uncover about consumer perceptions of the brand, product category, and competitors’ brands. Brand information includes an assessment of the brand’s role and performance in the marketplace. This research also investigates how people perceived brand personalities and images. Consumer Insight Know about the people they are trying to reach as much, deep and detailed as possible Demographic and psychographic information is used to describe the target audience. Objective: puzzle out a key consumer insight that will help move the target audience to respond to the message. Identifying the consumer insight is the responsibility of the account planner. Phil Dusenberry:消費者抱怨時的感覺最誠實與正確。 如果你想要從消費者嘴巴裡得到事實,就讓他們暢談 對商品的不滿。 Examples of Brilliant Consumer Insight 多力多滋的超濃起司口味 英國針對年輕女孩推出的反煙廣告 康寶料多濃湯 健力士(Guinness)啤酒 Media Research Gather information about all the possible media and marketing communication tools that might be used in a campaign to deliver a message. Media researchers then match that information to what is known about the target audience. The Use of Research in Message Development The three stages in message development 1. 2. 3. Preparation research (background research) Consumer research Development research Background Research Background research is used to familiarize advertising planners with the market situation. Secondary & primary research Types of background research The brand experience Competitive analysis An advertising audit Content analysis Semiotic analysis The Brand Experience Learn about the brand – going through all the experiences that a typical consumers has buying and using the product. It is the first thing the agency team has to do. It’s also a form of commitment. David Ogilvy 宣稱,他從來不接自己不會使用 的產品或服務的公司案子。 An Advertising Audit Collect every possible piece of advertising and other forms of marketing communication by the brand, as well as its competitors’, and other relevant categories that may have lessons for the brand. It includes a historical collection, as well. Content Analysis More formal and systematic tabulation of competitors’ approaches and strategies It provides clues to how competitors are thinking, and suggests ways to develop new and more effective campaigns. It helps planners to determine what mental territories or positions are claimed by competitors. Semiotic Analysis Semiotic analysis is a way to take apart the signs and symbols in a message to uncover layers and types of meanings. The objective is to find deeper meanings in the symbolism and meanings, particularly as they relate to different groups of consumers. Its focus is on determining the meanings, even if they are not obvious or highly symbolic, that might relate to consumer motivations. Example: GM’ OnStar GPS used a Batman theme, e.g. Alfred, Leap, and Vicky Vale. What is the symbolic meaning of this Levi ad? The Model The Clothes The Setting The Statement The Tag Line Consumer Research Ways of contact Survey research In-depth interviews Focus group Observation research Ethnographic research Diaries Other qualitative methods Ways of Contact Mail: not biased or distorted by interviewers, simple and clearly worded question, low response rate. Telephone: quick, interactive, higher response rate than mail. Personal interview: most versatile, expensive and require more administrative planning and supervision. Online interview: convenient. Survey Research Learn about people’s knowledge, beliefs, preferences, and satisfaction, and to measure these magnitudes in the general population. Best suited for descriptive research Major advantage – flexibility, e.g. Bissell’s Steam’n Clean. Limitations – subject’s language, privacy, incapability, boasting, or cooperation. In-Depth Interviews An in-depth interview is a qualitative method conducted one-on-one using open-ended questions that require the respondents to generate their own answers. The primary difference between an interview and a survey is the interview’s use of an unstructured questionnaire. Focus Group Research A focus group is a gathering of 6 to 10 people who are invited to spend a few hours with a skilled moderator to discuss a product, service, organization, or other marketing entity. Useful exploratory step Avoid generalizing the reported feelings of the focus-group participants to the whole market. Focus group research in progress Outline of Focus Group Interview Friendship Focus Group Friendship focus group is used in a comfortable setting, usually people’s homes, where the participants have been recruited by the host. This approach is designed to break down barriers and save time in getting to more indepth responses. A self-constructed friendship group was easier to assemble and yielded more honest and candid response. Observation Research Observation research takes researchers into natural settings where they note the behavior of consumers using video, audio, and disposable cameras to record consumers’ behavior at home (with consumer consent), in stores, or wherever people buy and use their products. A market will often use observation in the aisles of grocery, drug, and discount stores to watch people making their product selection. Examples of Observation Research Shoppers often zip through the snack aisle, spending only 42.7 seconds there, whereas they spend more than twice that in the coffee aisle. Only 34% of shoppers who don’t have baskets actually purchase something, while 75% of shoppers with baskets buy some items. A woman who shops with another woman spends twice as much time in the store than if she shops with a man. Basha’s Market’s greeting cards – 18% → 62% and sales↑40%. Observational Research Fisher-Price set up an observation lab in which it could observe the reactions of little tots to new toys. Ethnographic Research Ethnographic research involves the researcher in living the lives of the people being studied. Observe consumers in their “natural environments.” Examples: Sunbeam’s Coleman Grill; OnceFamous. OnceFamous A unique ethnographic laboratory for studying consumer behavior in a natural setting. Some interesting results: man (e.g. Brookstone, Sharper Image) vs. woman (e.g. Pottery Barn); cool colors vs. warm colors; turn left vs. turn right. Diaries Consumers are asked to record their activities through the use of diaries. Pros: (1) catch the consumer in a more realistic, normal life pattern; (2) lead to re-creation of a day in the life of a consumer. It is valuable in media research because they tell media planners exactly what programs and ads the consumers watch. Beeper diaries are used as a way to randomize the recording of activities. Other Qualitative Methods Cognitive psychologist have learned that human beings think more in images than words. Researchers try through pictures to uncover mental processes that guide consumer behavior. Some scholars believe that the conventional wisdom about consumer research, such as using interviews and focus groups that rely on talking to people and grilling them about their tastes and buying habits, is only good for getting back predictable answers. Other Qualitative Methods Methods: Fill-in-the-Blanks (填空) Purpose-driven Games (目的導向的遊戲) Story elicitation (說故事) Artifact creation (居家事物的描繪), e.g. life collages (生活拼 湊), day mapping (一天生活描述), and construction of instruction books (指導手冊的建構). Photo elicitation (看圖說故事) Photo sorts (照片分類) Metaphors (隱喻) Photo Sort 照片歸類法是由美國最大的廣告代理公司-環球BBDO公司 (BBDO Worldwide)開發出來的一種已經註冊成商標的技術。 在測試中,受試者通過研究人員特殊安排的一組照片來表述他們 對品牌的感受。 例如,BBDO與啤酒市場上的100名目標消費者進行了面談,這些 人是男性,年齡在21~29歲之間,每週至少喝6瓶啤酒。使用照片 歸類法,調查人員向每一位受測試者出示了98張照片,要求他們 將每張照片上的人與其可能選擇的啤酒品牌對應起來。結果,受 訪者認為喝巴德(Bud)啤酒的人看起來是粗魯暴躁的藍領工人。相 比之下,喝米勒啤酒的人是有教養而且和善的高級藍領工人。 讓一周至少喝6瓶啤酒的人歸類,哪些人喝什麼啤酒,這樣很容易 給商品定位。 Validity & Reliability Validity means that the research actually measures what it says it measures. Reliability means that you can run the same test again and get the same answer.
