A Sampler. 2011 2021 Moving Beyond the Survey 80% of global research spending is The survey will not die, but currently dedicated to quantitative, research will move beyond survey-based, research the survey to social media (ESOMAR, 2010) listening, observational and co-creative (MROCs) tools. Established competitors will struggle through this transition. Growing Emerging Markets Two thirds of all traditional marketing Research spending will shift research is conducted in the five toward the emerging economies aging industrial democracies of the and firms that have strong United States (30%), the United research capacity in the Kingdom (11%), Germany (9%), emerging economies will France (9%) and Japan (6%) grow more rapidly. (ESOMAR, 2010). ―…the next decade will…mark the definitive breakthrough of the global middle class, and demand from this group will be among the crucial economic factors of world economy‖ – Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies 9

- 17. Three Futures Definition Signals Co-creative design communities replace traditional market research. These are either open (and massive) or closed and proprietary. Project directors DEWmocracy, My Starbucks Idea, Power to the People become community managers and engagement HYVE’s Innovation communities becomes the core concern. http://www.hyve.de/ , Ideascale All key consumer data is integrated on a single online interface. The portal becomes the most important ―real estate‖ in market research. The portal provider Nunwood’s Fizz Dashboards and Fizz Portal Power becomes market research’s landlord. Corporate Library, Clarabridge, Salesforce.com , insights departments and CMOs guard these portals CRM-CEM software companies jealously. Mechanical Turk, Victors & Spoils, Market research firms are replaced by individual e- guru.com, honestly.com, Angie’s List lancers. Market researchers are hired based on their online competency scores at honestly.com or by their Headline: ―Blur Group Raises $2M To E-Agency Disrupt How Marketers Pick Creatives ―whuffie‖ rating on future reputational currency sites. For Campaigns‖
- 18. Three potential outcomes for the traditional marketing research industry: Transcendence Convergence Stagnation • Traditional MR repositions • Collision of marketing • Traditional marketing itself at center of wider research, management research refuses to evolve, insights industry consulting, social media preferring to stay with analytics, data mining, questioning rather than • Traditional MR absorbs and software observing tools and integrates tools and knowledge from • Produces a synthesis • Continues to execute wider industry, placing of tools and blurring tactical research projects itself at the top of of roles while wider insights the strategic insights industry passes it by value chain • Convergence is forced on traditional MR industry and adjustment is difficult 18
- 19. NextGen Insights Firms Will o Harness mobile (in the moment) research o Moving from gatekeeper to guide o Make the leap from the Asking to the Observing Era o Master ―listening‖ o Build insight communities (MROCs) o Triangulate: Pull insights from multiple data streams o Transition from projects to consultative retainers o Build ethnographic capacity at a global level for the global middle class o Master data visualization o Leverage 24-7 global clock o Develop foresight capacity 19

- 5 Megatrends will shape our industry over the next ten years.The first is data abundance. Data is no longer scarce.The next is the seismic shift from asking to observing.The third is the democratization of research – a future where the consumer co-createsThe fourth is convergence on multiple layers. Industry convergence as new entrants join our space, the convergence of tools not traditionally thought of as research tools, and the convergence of data streams.The fifth is the need for the industry to ascend the data, information, knowledge, insight, foresight, strategy pyramid.
- Critical to understanding the process of scenario development is the so-called “Futures Cone”. As you can see, the further out in time we look, the greater the number of possible futures. The key is to identify plausible futures first, analyze the implications of these futures , select a range of preferred futures, and work toward those while reducing the likelihood of undesirable futures.

- First, as a sampler there are the dynamic duo of moving beyond the survey and moving beyond the developed world.Today…80% of the work we do is survey based. That won’t last.And, two thirds of all market research is conducted in the developed world. That won’t last either. The Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies lists trend 5 as the rise of the global middle class. The what and where of market research is going to change. Ten years from now the winners will have successfully navigated their firms beyond a dependence on surveys in the developed world.

- Let’s first look at the baseline forecast.The baseline forecast is our best estimate.Based on my research, interviews and writing I believe that market research will evolve along a four era continuum. There will be overlap in these eras.The first era, which we are exiting is the Asking era dominated by the survey. We were all acculturated in this era. That itself is a red flag.The next era will be the observational era dominated by data scraping, data mining, social media analytics, and lots of behavioural data.This will eventually give way to the co-creative era of research, as consumers demand ever greater input into the products we sell them and as marketers begin to develop community around co-creation.And this in turn will give way to the anticipatory era of market research. This era will be defined by games as research, by ubiquitous predictive markets, and by MROCs as Delphi panels.
- Some of these scenarios will not surprise.Others will seem far fetched.I’m going to cite Dator’s Law now:“Any useful statement about the futures should appear to be ridiculous.”
- So, let’s take a look at some plausible futures scenarios that I have developed in my research…
- The implications are clear.NextGen insights firms will.
- It’s a tall order.But, remember, the best way to predict the future is to make it.!Thank you
