  1. Not Bovvered! Including a new generation MA Conference, Manchester, 6th October 2010

  2. Comments from the film • Something they did when young i.e. taken to it • Which having done once, there is no need to do again • Museums see as offering ‘too much information on old things’ • Specific about what they would like – interactive means getting involved, touching stuff, experiencing things • Entertainment or involvement? • Part of a creative package: art, drama, music, museums and galleries • The opportunity to ‘Learn stuff I don’t already know’ • The significance of key influencers they empathise with – The Victorians and Van Gogh

  3. PEST and SWOT

  4. Formal eg BML and Omnibus surveys eg Nielsen BookData (explicit) • Explicit for another purpose eg FT • Informal (tacit) • Anecdotal • From authors and agents

  5. Publishers • Booksellers, chain and independent • Temporary site eg literary festivals • Wholesalers • Other retailers – supermarkets and chemists • Amazon and other online • Other intermediaries eg book clubs • Customers for direct supply • Overlap eg booksellers running websites, authors selling through events

  6. Effort vs impact – 14 -18 age group WorstPlace National advertising Contacting parents Exploiting TV series Effort Combined tickets Themed events Offers in gift shop Discount tickets Educational partnerships Twitter Blogging e-comms Media features School parties linked to syllabus Local advertising Best Place Impact

  7. Ten top tips for parents • Involve them in planning – spotting in real life what you have seen in the marketing information really validates the experience • Negotiate on what you will go to see • Quality not quantity; never stay to get your money’s worth (which is why season tickets are great) • Explain that what they are looking at belongs to them • Price tags often prompt good discussions about value/merit/taste • Let them take a friend • Explore the back story - creator/collector/current owner • Show them how to look and comment, but make it accessible (‘that colour blue is lovely’) • Not liking the same stuff as you is fine • Make the shop and cafe part of the date
