we build our marketing solutions based on target audience research. If you know your target audience needs you have successful marketing campaign. Some foreign companies plan their marketing campaigns in Russia based on US or European data. It does not work. Russia is very specific country with very complicated mentality. We do detail research not just by social-demographic data, we do ethnic, confession, geography and psychologic research for your target audience in Russia.
3. Why do we need to understand
“Audience Characteristics”?
• The primary task – to build strong relationships with
customers
• NOT enough to influence customers on a rational
level
• The contemporary trend - to find a way to their heart
and soul
• The path can be short and direct in some cases
• BUT to some hearts we have «the path is strewn with
thorns»…

4. Why do we need to understand
“Audience Characteristics”?
• Easier to start with those who are ready to cooperate
• These people will build relationships with the
enterprise WHEN they can identify a real benefit for
themselves
• Enterprises NEED TO:
1) study the psychological characteristics of their
customers;
2) choose the most effective ways to communicate
with customers;
3) make customers advocates for the brand;
4) allow customer to become a trusted source for
favorable information to the broader target
audience.

5. Three steps to build tailor made
advertising campaigns
• Authentication – target identification, segmentation
of the target audience according to its socialdemographic, psychological and behavioral
features. In addition we need to build a
psychological portrait for each segment.
• Appropriateness (adequacy) – to track that
marketing strategies suit needs and psychological
traits of each segment of the target audience. It also
include the composition of relevant «appeals».
• Attraction – attraction and retention of the target
audience attention. If your enterprise catches the
attention of consumers, so most likely they will come
to you if necessary.

through to build a psychological portrait of the target audience.

7. Psychological portrait of the target
audience
• Social-demographic features:
gender, age, nationality, education, marital status.
• Standard of living (income): Products of what price
category can customers allow themselves to
buy?
• Interests: How do people you investigate prefer to
spend their free time?
• Behavior: What behavioral features do men
demonstrate in public? How do people interact with
each other and what way of communications do
they use?

8. Psychological portrait of the target
audience
• Individual-psychological features: temperament
and character, extraversion-introversion, a type of
reactions on stress, the level of anxiety etc.
• Demand, motives, goals, value: these features are
extracted from the previous information by
reconstruction of a psychological and behavioral
portrait and also from the information received
during the investigation.

9. Social networks as
a source of useful personal data
• Social networks are successfully used as a source of
psychological information about the target audience
• Interpersonal relationships are fundamental to Russian
culture and that is why social networking has spread so
rapidly and widely in Russia. Social networks often give
the most complete information about target individuals and
can be used to build their psychological portrait.
• While Russia also has strong data privacy legislation
(Federal Law No 152 on Personal Data) it is still possible
to use information from social networks as it is considered
as being public information (paragraph 2, article 7).
• In addition, social networking sites ask users to give broad
permissions about HOW their data may be used and WHO
may use it.
