Global Consortium
With a much-lauded campaign for a new product roll-out flopping, a Fortune 25 global
consortium initiated in-depth interviews and discriminant analysis to identify those
household attributes distinguishing heavy Pay Per View use. Demographic, lifestyle,
interest/hobbies, and media/entertainment usage variables were delineated. Cluster
analysis was then used to identify concentrations of households most likely to purchase
differentiated service bundles and to locate high potential geographic “build-in” areas.
Service targets are redefined and new marketing material is designed to correlate with
the actual behavior of households in established markets. Target geographic areas and
customer segments are altered. A new sales and marketing approach was established.
