Project Dairy A consumer research programme to test and promote awareness of health and nutritional advantages and preferences of milk and other dairy products
Focused improvement: Combining performance and impact drivers Impact Performance ratings Impact identifies which attributes have the most effect on overall product loyalty. This is statistically derived as we CANNOT expect respondents to unpack this! Performance measures how well a product delivers on an attribute and can be asked directly to respondents Performance measures how well the touch point delivers on an attribute. Impact identifies which attributes have the most effect on overall loyalty. The impact scores show where efforts need to be targeted to make the MOST IMPROVEMENT on the brand loyalty.

Loyalty drives the right behaviours Recommend Go to another store Buy more in the future Buy another Dairy product 0.64 0.62 0.51 0.14 (Formative) Brand Loyalty Product loyalty correlates highly with intended increase in future consumption, and also in consumers’ propensity to recommend the product and search for the right product by going from store to store. However, there is some likelihood that consumers will substitute their favourite dairy product for another should the occasion or need arise.

Yoghurt, Gouda/Cheddar and butter will also not be searched, and butter seems to suffer from declining future interest and lack of commitment.

Sweetened condensed milk is the weakest , followed by flavoured milk and cream. However, there is some resistance to substituting other dairy for cream or cheese spread, whereas UHT 2% milk is extremely likely to be substituted.

Key facts about product rejection and substitution • Should a favourite dairy product not be available, the likely substitutes will be: • Fresh full-cream milk: UHT full-cream milk, and vice versa • Maas: Fresh full-cream milk • Gouda/cheddar: Cheese spread or other cheese, and vice versa • Normal yoghurt: Drinking yoghurt, and vice versa • Fresh 2% fat milk: UHT 2% fat milk, and vice versa • Butter: margarine • Cream: Normal yoghurt When any dairy product is not available, it would most likely be replaced by another dairy product, except in the case of butter. There is high interchange ability between fresh and UHT for similar levels of fat content, between cheeses of various consistency and between yoghurts. Surprisingly, normal yoghurt will often stand in for cream
Product loyalty:Challenging the concepts of satisfaction & retention • Consumers buy brands for different reasons: • Ought to stay - the consumer feels obligated to buy • (Normative Commitment) • Need to stay - the consumer is trapped in their relationship (Continuance Commitment) • Wants to stay - the consumer feels personally attached to the brand • (Affective Commitment) A stakeholder loyalty measurement tool that does not distinguish stakeholders according to their felt desire, need, and sense of obligation to the company will omit information that is critical to the accurate prediction of retention.
Product loyalty:Challenging the concepts of satisfaction & retention • Consumers feeling personally attached to the product and wanting to stay in the relationship is the kind of loyalty organisations want to achieve • Wanting to stay hinges on more than mere satisfaction • Satisfaction is good, but is a minimum requirement and is not predictive of retention • Retention alone is also not sufficient since some customers are trapped • Therefore, we need to measure and manage loyalty - properly conceptualised
Measuring satisfaction has evolved to managing loyalty Satisfaction Quality and Value Commitment Loyalty 1990 to present 1980s to 1990s 1970s to 1980s In an holistic measurement, all of these elements contribute to a complete understanding of consumer relationships.
What on earth is the difference between commitment and loyalty? LOYALTY COMMITMENT Attitudinal Commitment PLUSBehavioural intention to stay Attitudinal: sentiment tends to the positive Remember: value can only be created by changes in consumer behaviour. Changes in consumer attitudes are important, but in and of themselves, they don’t generate future cash flow.
How does the dairy industry as a whole measure up in terms of consumer loyalty? - Behaviour + Maintain and grow relationship Intervene and re-direct 67% Truly Loyal 3% Accessible – Attitude + At Risk 11% Essentially satisfied 18% Address concerns to retain or enhance If profitable, save • Matrix classifications are based on a proprietary statistical algorithm developed by Walker Global Network. • Theoretical model framework is credited to Dick and Basu, Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, 1994.
(Pop. (wt.) (‘000s) =31540 ) Comparing loyalty (slide 1 of 3) % Results are based on consumers who have ever used or tried a product. Only products with unweighted bases of at least 50 are shown. Fresh milk (full cream and 2%), UHT (full cream) and maas are loyalty leaders. Yoghurt, Gouda/Cheddar and butter have low loyalty, but many essentially satisfied users. Butter is particularly at risk of future lapsing (i.e. people will stop using butter).
(Pop. (wt.) (‘000s) =31540 ) Comparing loyalty (slide 2 of 3) % Results are based on consumers who have ever used or tried a product. Only products with unweighted bases of at least 50 are shown. Baby milk powder and UHT 2% have loyalty status that is on par with the average. Future lapsing is extremely likely for sweetened condensed milk, whilst flavoured milk, drinking yoghurt and cream have high numbers of essentially satisfied to attitudinally negative users – also recall that these products have niche markets.

Identifying the attitudinal drivers of loyalty Business Success Loyalty Consumer Attitudes The next focus is on key drivers of loyalty.
Loyalty drives the right behaviours (Formative) Brand Loyalty 0.10 NS 0.32 Market model 0.31 Prices Quality Image Value for money • Impact scores >0.1 are significant • NS = not significant Quality and image are key drivers of loyalty to dairy products. We saw earlier that prices are likely reasons why people would stop using a product or not try it at all, thus it is no surprise that prices have an impact on loyalty. Value for money is not a key driver in the dairy market per se, although this could look different if brands are introduced.
