VI KONFERENCJA EWALUACYJNA WARSZAWA, 13-14.12.2010 dr DIETER KORCZAK ESOMAR Współczesne trendy w badaniach społecznych i marketingowych ABOUT ESOMAR ESOMAR is the world organisation for enabling better research into markets, consumers and societies ESOMAR’s aim is to promote the value of market and opinion research by illuminating real issues and bringing about effective decision-making. LEADING THE WAY ESOMAR seeks to gather insight and promote debate on how market research can lead the way to a more ethical, responsible and creative society. Facilitating Knowledge Exchange Promoting Best Practice Developing Talent Monitoring Legislation ETHICAL RESPONSIBLE CREATIVE Professional Standards GLOBAL MEMBERSHIP BREAKDOWN Asia Pacific 15% North America 10% Western Europe 54% Latin America 6% Middle East and Africa Eastern 6% Europe 9% THE HEADLINES THE WORLD ASSOCIATION FOR MARKET RESEARCH www.esomar.org September 2010 Global industry falls by 4.6% in 2009 Growth rate adjusted for inflation -4.6% World -5.9% Europe -3.5% -2.2% -4.6% -10.2% North America Asia Pacific Latin America ME & Africa Exchange rate fluctuations eliminated. IMF inflation rates used to determine net growth. The latest ESOMAR industry study Global Market Research 2010 reveals the first decline in worldwide research turnover since ESOMAR began measuring the global market in 1988. The report shows global turnover falling to US $28.9 billion in 2009, representing a year-on-year decline of 3.7% and 4.6% after adjustment for inflation; a significant drop but in line with expectations given the economic downturn. Europe was the worstaffected region in 2009; whilst North America faced a 2nd year of net declines, and despite hopes that emerging markets would weather the storm relatively well, falls also occurred in Asia Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa. These declines, however, belie an array of scattered results, and the report looks beyond these headline figures to discover the varied challenges and opportunities in research across borders and disciplines; and how the industry needs to change if it is to seize the opportunities that current times present. HOW IT BREAKS DOWN Market Size 2009: US $28,945 million ME & Africa, Latin America, $492m, 2% $1,486m, 5% Asia Pacific, $4,480m, 15% (+1) Europe, $13,299m, 46% (-3) North America, $9,188m, 32% (+2) ESOMAR estimates. Rounded figures presented. Percentage point changes in market share compared to 2008 are provided between brackets SOURCES OF RESEARCH TURNOVER Other 19% (+1) • Demand from the Manufacturing manufacturing industries is 46% (-1) by far the largest Utilities 6% (-1) • With FMCG clients in particular accounting for 25% of global turnover, and pharmaceutical and healthcare clients a further 12% Financial services 5% Public sector 9% Media 15% (+1) SPEND BY RESEARCH DESIGN Other, 9% Omnibus, 9% Other continuous, 10% Panel, 19% • The flexibility of conducting research as and when you Ad hoc, need it means ad hoc 53% research continues to take the ‘lion’s share’ when turnover is broken down by research design PREDICTIONS FOR 2010 A return to growth in most countries decline, 6% no change, 10% • The majority of countries providing forecasts for 2009 anticipate a return to growth in research turnover this year. • Latin America and Asia Pacific were very positive about 2010, with fifteen countries forecasting double-digit growth Weighted predictions based on turnover • This positive prediction is growth, supported by a return to growth at 84% many of the largest research agencies 2010 GLOBAL MARKET RESEARCH REPORT Online research continues to grow 2008 22% Online 17% Telephone 16% Automated digital 13% Face-to-face Online traffic Quantitative = 80% 6% 1% Other qualitative 1% Other 9% 2% Online qualitative 1% 7% 9% Group discussions In-depth interviews 17% 5% 1% Other quantitative 18% 12% 4% Postal 20% 3% Qualitative = 13% NA 2% 7% Other = 7% 6% GLOBAL MARKET RESEARCH REPORT New chapters provide expert commentary and analysis GLOBAL PRICES STUDY 2010 • The Prices Study enables research providers and buyers to benchmark the cost of market research projects • It indicates the relative pricing of different types of projects by methodology, country and region • The 2010 Study will offer an opportunity to explore the impact that the current unprecedented market conditions are having on global pricing Monitoring Legislation New Public Affairs Programme Data Protection New technologies and market Research Applicable law TRENDS & CHALLENGES • Draft guidelines to distinguish other activities from MR which faces growing competition from new information providers • Promote alignment in standards as client concern about quality growing especially in online research • Promote ICC/ESOMAR Code adoption to strengthen self regulation & counter falling respondent participation & lack of trust • Represent MR to legislative bodies eg in Europe as European Commission reviews data privacy directive and FTC debates privacy issues incl. behavioural targeting • Consult & align key stakeholders to create consensus for messages to regulators • Accelerate initiatives to promote credibility and transparency to meet rapid change in environment Trends & Challenges • Review of EU Data Protection Directive • Quality Concerns – speed versus price • Self- regulation - Falling respondent participation & issues about privacy strengthen the need to demonstrate effective self regulation based on the ICC/ESOMAR Code whilst recognising that adequate resources are required industry-wide. • Cross-border exchanges PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS To provide credible representation for the international industry regarding legislative threats and opportunities, working with other associations and stakeholders. To provide authoritative guidance in professional standards which is applicable worldwide, credible, transparent and forward-looking. PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS New ICC/ESOMAR International Code Takes into account recent developments in technology and data protection issues and clearly promotes the principles of ethical and professional conduct to legislators, the public and researchers on a global basis. It is the only global MR code, is adopted by all ESOMAR members and enforced by the Professional Standards Committee through Disciplinary Procedures. PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS Why a global Code of standards? • Ensure guidance is up to-date and in line with current business practice • Principles/ethical & professional conduct not performance standards • Global – national guidelines for extra local requirements • Strengthen section on privacy to state obligations more explicitly Differentiate / build client trust Confidence and credibility Simplify and tailor messages to target group Create a common set of cross-border principles – essential for self-regulation Aligning key stakeholders to promote revised ICC/ESOMAR Code Strengthening international self regulation with a focus on Europe & emerging markets THROUGH Creating an improved platform to promote professional standards & defend MR industry from undue restriction Updating & promoting guidelines The Internet has been the “muse” of research….. Web 1.0 Web 2.0 Web 3.0 • Online migration – driven by cost • Penetration? Representation? • Validity? Duplication? • Blogs, chatrooms, wikis • Need for MR guidance, not Control • Web scraping…..surreptitious! • Comparability ? • Skype • Communities • Mobility • The “collective” – not the “individual” Research is now about….. and no longer…… L I E istening nforming ngaging T E R elling xtracting ecycling “The way we were….” • Old, “Research-Centric” Rules: • WE decide WHEN we will contact you • WE decide HOW we will contact you • WE decide WHAT questions we want answered • WE don’t care if you don’t have time • If you don’t answer we’ll just keep calling !! Whether we like it or not…. P.E.S.T. analysis – Politics, Economics, Society, Technology • Sampling / contact has & will become increasingly difficult • “Traditional” response rates have & will continue to decline • Research increasingly needs only to be “good enough” • Penetration / usage of the internet continues to increase globally • “New” (& mobile) communications are becoming increasingly popular “The way it is now….” • New, “Respondent-Centric” Rules: • We’ll decide if/when you can contact us • We’ll decide how you can contact us • We’ll give you what answers we want to give • We don’t have a lot of time, so make it brief • I may or may not be truthful • We expect something in return The “paradigm shift” is here….. The Age of Questioning Respondents Panels The Age of Listening MROC’s ..requiring a whole new set of Quality criteria & facilitating a whole new suite of applications….. QUALITY CRITERIA Tenure APPLICATIONS I.R.C’s • Co-creation • Length of Questionnaire • Netnography • Stimulus • Neuromarketing • Duplication • “Me to We” • “Good Taste” • Data privacy!! • Data privacy Evaluation of market research results is still a big challenge ! It can be done by • Econometrics • Customer satisfaction research • Comparison Forecast - result • Long-term panel analysis Customer Satisfaction Programme The Key determinants What are the Programme objectives? Who shall be measured? What measures are needed? How do we source the measures? How frequently do we measure? How do we leverage the organisation natural point of contacts to conduct CS programme? Online/Offline Data Collection? What do we deliver internally and to who? Figure 18.1 Market research Handbook pg 353 The High Impact Research Article By Ian Lewis There are four areas of change needed to transform market research: 1. The management contract 2. The work, 3. The capabilities and 4. The execution 1. The way we work • Creating a management contract is breaking new ground, and will be challenging. • Think of it as a continuous improvement process for how MR will operate and be evaluated. 2. What we work on Driving business impact for strategic issues: • Embracing listening • Redefining how we work with research firms “I spend too much time and money researching tactical issues” is a frequent MR complaint 3. Capabilities Talent will need to be evaluated against the evolving profile for market researchers: Mindset Skills Change Agent Conceptual Provocative Visionary Curious Creative Open-minded Analytical Collaborative Problem Solver Integrative Storyteller Future-focused Relationship builder 4. Relentless execution Research must identify rich insights that drive impact by: • Innovating and being open to disruptive change • Working collaboratively and integrating knowledge from multiple sources • Understanding the business and the company’s capabilities • Communicating for and provoking impact, utilising storytelling • Always raising the bar on performance.
