  • Single Source – the Problem Solver by Geoffrey Smith, Strategic Director-Multi Media Development Roy Morgan Research July 2000
    . Roy Morgan Research Roy Morgan Research Pty. Ltd. A.B.N. 91 007 092 944 Quality System Certified to AS/NZS ISO 9001 : 94 Cert. No.6669 Single Source – The Problem Solver By Geoffrey Smith, Strategic Director-Multi Media Development Roy Morgan Research July 2000 Introduction Two recent articles in the American press have highlighted some of the problems that have been dogging advertisers for decades. In both cases, the problem is one of getting value out of research. An Advertising Age article1 states that by matching names in Nielsen’s TV diaries with names of new car buyers the authors discovered that the viewing habits of a number of new- car buying segments differ significantly from average household viewing habits. Deborah Anderson, director of Nielsen’s New Media Services, is attributed with the comments that car marketers are reaching too many non-buyers with their national broadcast TV buys and the auto marketers are basing those TV buys on viewer demographics. The thrust of the article is that if car makers were able to buy TV airtime based on car buying behaviour rather than simple demographics then a different program set would be chosen. The opportunity to save money or increase impact could be as much as 70% compared to a buy based on household viewing. Observation A small proportion of the population buys a new car in any year and there are dozens if not hundreds of make/model options to choose from. Because of this huge diversity of options it should be intuitive that at the model level of buying, chances are that most models are not bought by people that closely resemble the average TV viewer.
