  3. IPA TouchPoints:Why • New Communications Reality: • Power of single media declining • Consumers increasingly in control • All industry research, single media based • Need to know more than numbers • Credibility gap for clients

  4. IPA TouchPoints: What? • Qualitative study of agency planning directors • What they thought of current industry tools? • What tools they thought they would need to operate effectively in the future? • Could any of these tools be provided by IPA? Not much Lots Yes

  5. IPA TouchPoints: Requirement “A tool which evaluates mixed media schedules, both for planning and post campaign evaluation”

  6. IPA TouchPoints: Remit • To deliver new and fresh insights in its own right • To act as a gateway across data sources • NOT to act as an alternative to current industry research

  7. The IPA TouchPoints Survey Proprietary Data The IPA TouchPoints Hub Survey

  8. Deliverable 1 A time based study of how consumers spend their time: - where - with whom - main activities - media usage and attitudes - mood - lifestyles and attitudes - shopping habits

  9. Deliverable 2 The first, industry available, multi-media planning system.

  10. How – the Hub Survey • Undertaken by TNS • 5,000 sample of adults in GB • Used range of TNS access panels • Telephone recruitment, postal delivery and return • £20 incentive

  11. How – Hub research design • Television • Radio • Press • Outdoor • Cinema • Online • SMS • Event Sponsorship • Direct Marketing • Lifestyles/ Attitudes • Shopping

  12. How – Hub research design By half hour: • Where were you? • Who were you with? • What were you doing? • And were you doing any of these? • (media consumption) • Mood At the end of the day: • Cinema going • Advertising mail • Telemarketing calls received • Commercial text messages received

  13. How – Integration Process • Undertaken by RSMB • Integration of industry currencies onto the Hub • Using one-on-one fusion where possible • Maintaining industry definition of commercial contact

  14. The Business Plan: The Challenges • How to ensure such a large project was: • Adequately funded • Structured to run efficiently

  15. Why the IPA? • Stated requirement by IPA Media Futures Group • ‘Too’ expensive for agencies to undertake individually on a proprietary basis • Needed to be ‘industry’ • IPA’s role within: • agency world • industry media research

  16. The Operation • Created a small group of agencies/media owners to act as founding partners: • - guarantee the cost • - develop the technical solution
