2. “I don’t set trends. I just find out what they are and
exploit them.”
Dick Clark
3. “Trends, like horses, are easier to ride in the
direction they are going.”
John Naisbitt
4. “Advertisers are constantly accused of creating
trends, shaping attitudes and planting new
behavior in consumers. But in fact, the opposite is
true: advertising doesn’t set trends, it follows
them.”
Terry O’Reilly

17. Implications
Develop consumer opportunities to interact
for those who want it
Leverage brand evangelists
Reach everyone else through TV
To signpost, ignite, fuel, explain
Sole focus just on participation won’t grow
your brand
24. Implications
Campaigns that work across screens can extend reach
enormously
We saw campaign recall double in a recent local
campaign where TV was used in addition to online
Plan creative content and media as a single exercise
TV is not dead but it will evolve
Move completely away from TV with caution
TV frequency may decline – focus more on reach
Where reach builds quickly, may need to pool out
more often

32. Effective Ads typically have:
Interest Value
A differentiating and relevant message
Simple storylines
An immediately clear connection with the brand
Branding that’s subtle, insistent, integrated
Brand as hero, as a part of our lives
33. Effective Ads: Interest Value
Interest value is subjective, unique to the individual.
Memorable ads have something that helps them stand out
from the crowd and gain attention. And the tactics keep
changing.
34. Effective Ads: Interest Value
There are predictably effective ways of breaking out
from the pack…
Use of humour
Upbeat commercials with music
Cute or appealing characters (kids, babies, dogs, etc.)
Newsworthiness or information value
An engaging narrative or story
Use of an (identified) celebrity
Continuity (of characters, style, etc.)

40. Implications
Know your audience and do all you can to
leverage great creative against it
Be confident in your strategy
A good story…
Execute with finesse
…well told
Does your process allow for this?
42. The insight for the creative Big Idea may
not be so rational or found in product
attributes
43. Why should brand managers care about the
emotions associated with their brand?
Almost everything we do is for ourselves!
Why should I?
What will this brand do for me?
What do I feel like doing?
Genetic evolution is

47. Marketers need to build emotional
associations on to the brand
This is about emotional ‘need states’
Fancy Thursday Sunday football

48. Because we change moods/needs every day, it is
difficult to segment, and define the right message
to an individual, for the right mood.
Brand Managers must “paint” their brand with emotional
associations and expected emotional pay-offs.
IPSOS ASI LESSON LEARNED
49. Implications
Emotions are everything, whether we perceive it
that way or not
We do not make “rational” decisions without
emotions and emotional associations
55. Implications
Define the relevant need states for your
product and service and market to those
needs
Leverage customer databases to support
mass customization
56. New Ways of Going Green: Profiting Through
Encouraging Consumers to Buy Less
60. Implications

but:
It can pay major dividends in
customer loyalty
Offer up highly relevant
differentiating positioning
62. This is the

points work and how to help marketers better plan

extend recall – are all needed?

audience see multiple touch points? How many
are too many?

campaign media
68. We Will Use New Methods to Understand Our
Audiences
69. The New Normal
Where consumers are
constantly connected
and “always on” is the
default setting

70. The New Normal
Where we are accelerating
toward a new singularity
where the storing of a
consumer’s digital life
will be accessible on any
device

71. The New Normal
Where we are moving towards
a culture where information
about most things becomes
readily available

72. The New Normal
And where personalization of
the digital landscape via
devices and apps will continue
to grow quickly
72
73. TODAY’S CONSUMERS ARE DIFFERENT
We have to engage them in
ways that capitalize on and
mimic their lives in a digital
world
73
74. Multiple Sources will Provide More Accurate
Understanding
The complexity of our
new normal means we
can’t rely on one source
for all insight:
• We need to listen
• And converse
• And passively
measure
• And actively measure

80. In some markets we see large influences from
immigration, while others are ‘westernizing’.
81. In almost all markets we observe a growing power
of the consumer (the “prosumer”).
82. Consumers are increasingly guilt-free in
disloyalty. The transactional model is ceasing to
exist - the relationship and experience model is
taking its place.
From To
Simple More complex
Fast Sales Cycle Time consuming
Buyer is not/does not Relationship building is
have to be very key

83. We see greater individualism, people are
spending less time socializing “in person”.
84. Screen time is growing and personal care
(health) is declining
