POSTERSCOPE MEDIA DIGEST - Full Year 2012 3

Executive Summary•According to the Outdoor Media Centre, outdoor revenue grew by 9.5% in 2012 to £970.1 million.

This was considerably higher than the market as a whole and brings outdoor back to its historic highs of 2006-2007.

•HM Treasury puts UK GDP stable at 0% for 2012 but with positive news of a return to an estimated 1% growth in 2013.

• Ten out of thirteen categories increased their OOH adspend with the top five categories all seeing increases. Technology leads the field with a 34% year-on-year increase, with government & utilities (+28%) and travel (+16%) also experiencing high growth.

• Three-fifths of UK adults are now smartphone users and nearly 1/3 of page views in the UK now occur on a smartphone or tablet.

•Posterscope undertook several new research projects throughout 2012 and is already applying those learnings. These include research into Time Use Planning, an understanding of our urban environment in “Social Cities” and the 2012 Media Research Group (MRG) award winning presentation ”VirtuoCity”.

•New research with Nestlé and Millward Brown demonstrated how traditional OOH is still the dominant medium for driving brand awareness, equity and trial.

• 2012 was also the year that OOH launched its first national NFC/QR Code campaigns demonstrating OOH as a convergent interactive medium.

•Both CBS Outdoor and JCDecaux have been utilising their research panels over 2012 and new category insights are highlighted. Similarly both are continuing these in 2013 and JCDecaux have launched a youth panel (15-24) called “Streetalker”.

•Primesight have released a large number of case studies generated through their Primelife Tools and Clear Channel have available a range of case studies demonstrating the power of OOH in a multi-media world as well as results from their 2012 interactive OOH Advertising Research project. This month sees the launch of Clear Channel Mobile Platform.

Economic Review and Forecast: 2012 and BeyondUK Adspend:

According to Warc’s detailed consensus advertising forecast the UK ad market grew by 2.7% in 2012.

In official figures from the Outdoor Media Centre, outdoor revenues grew at a significantly higher rate of 9.5% in 2012 to £970.1 million (full year 2011 was £886.3m). This brings outdoor right back to its historic highs in 2006-2007.

The standout quarter of the 2012 calendar year was Q3, with 25% growth year-on-year helped by the London 2012 Olympic/Paralympic Games. However every quarter showed outdoor growth with all major environments (transport, roadside, retail and leisure) benefitting from significantly higher spend year on year.

The Warc ‘Consensus Forecast’ puts UK advertising growth at 3.0% for 2013 and 3.3% for 2014.The IPA Bellwether Report also has some positive news where marketing executives are cautiously optimistic about an increase in their budgets for 2013 relative to 2012 levels. Preliminary data based on around two-fifths of the survey panel suggest a rise in 2013 budgets with around 33% of the survey panel forecasting an increase, against 25% expecting a fall. The net balance of +8.2%pts is slightly higher than that seen for 2012 (+7.0%pts) and is indicative of cautious optimism for coming year budgets.

Tim Lefroy, Chief Executive at the Advertising Association, said: “Despite the shaky economic outlook, 2013 will see overall adspend return to levels last seen before the recession. That’s good news for both UK advertising and UK plc.”

UK & Europe Economic Growth:

The HM Treasury puts UK GDP growth at 0% for 2012 which is in line with analysts’ forecasts. This broadly flat output for 2012 is the start of a slow but steady climb back into positive growth for the next few years. The Monetary Policy Committee continues to judge that the UK economy is set for a slow but sustained recovery in ‘both demand and effective supply, aided by a further easing in credit conditions’ (Inflation Report, February 2013). The Treasury’s latest report estimates a 1% growth in GDP figures based on independent forecasts.

The underlying Eurozone issues however does continue to besiege economists’ confidence in the UK economy, culminating in the recent downgrading in the UK’s credit rating. In 2012 the Eurozone economy is estimated to have shrunk 0.6% and is also predicted to shrink 0.3% in 2013.

Global growth is projected to increase during 2013, as the factors underlying soft global activity are expected to subside. Policy actions have lowered acute crisis risks in the Euro area and the United States. Overall global output growth figures: 2012 (3.2%), 2013 (3.5%), 2014 (4.1%) (IMF World Economic Outlook).

Media & Category Spend 2011 vs 2012Referring to Ebiquity as the source of data, the changes in advertising expenditure between 2011 and 2012 can be measured (Figure 1.0 NB. Data is indicative, not definitive)

Ebiquity data suggests that five out of eight media channels have seen a drop in expenditure in 2012, with OOH bucking this trend and creating enormous growth of over 7%.

Figure 1.0: Media Spend 2011 vs. 2012

POSTERSCOPE MEDIA DIGEST - Full Year 2012 6

This is largely due to the ‘Olympics Effect’ which saw OOH expenditure rise by 25.4% year-on-year for Q3 (£270m), the largest increase of all media. As a result, OOH has increased its share of voice to 7.1%, up from 6.5% in 2011 (Figure 1.1).

Category Spend:

The individual category OOH spends have increased in line with OOH generally. Ten out of thirteen categories increased their adspend with the top five categories all seeing increases. Technology leads the field with a 34% year-on-year increase in OOH spend, with travel (+16%) and government & utilities (+28%) also experiencing high growth.

Stats for 2013:

Tablets have grown 49.5% in 2012 and by 2015 1 in 3 of all computers shipped will be a tablet. In 2013, mobile phones will overtake PCs as the most common Web access device worldwide. (Dynamit Digital Trends 2013)

Trends for 2013:

Human-centred tech: as voice activated systems and gesture-based recognition become more sophisticated, and experimentation with wearable computing and emotion recognition grows, technology will increasingly adapt to humans. It will become more intuitive, integrating more seamlessly into our lives, rather than requiring people to adjust to it. “We’re entering an age of human-centred design, shaped around people and their existing habits and body language,” Olof Schybergson founder and CEO of digital consultancy Fjord, told Fast Company. (JWT 100 Trends)

NFC tags: with about 300 million near field communication-enabled mobile devices expected to sell worldwide in 2013, watch for wide adoption of customisable NFC tags. User can program these small tags to initiate an array of functions on mobile devices. Brands like Sony (Xperia SmartTags) and Samsung (TecTiles stickers) are now in the game. The tags have interesting potential for brands which can use them to simplify processes like downloading information or even making a purchase. (JWT 100 Trends)

Transformable designs: like digital wallpaper and customisable furniture will bring the easily modifiable aesthetic of the virtual world into the real world. Enabled by intelligent projectors, surfaces and materials, the physical will become digital. (Sparks and Honey)

Predictive Personalisation: brands will increasingly use data analysis to predict customer behaviour, needs or wants- and tailor offers and communications very precisely. We’ll see data scientists become the new hotshots, marketers offering Hyper-Personalised Customer Service and consumers focusing on Personal Data Ownership. (JWT 100 Trends)

Everything is retail: Shopping is shifting from an activity that takes place in physical stores or online to a value exchange that can play out in multiple new and novel ways. Brands will become increasingly creative in where and how they sell their goods. (JWT 100 Trends)

The latest published results show that over both the long and short term there has been an increase in total passenger numbers/distance travelled driven by nearly all forms of transport.

Air Travel:

• There were 219 million terminal passengers (arrivals and departures) at UK airports in 2011, 4% more than in 2010. Terminal passenger numbers have more than doubled since 1990 (102,418,000).

Rail Travel:

• Since privatisation (1994/95), the number of journeys made by national rail has doubled from 0.7 billion to 1.5 billion in 2011/12 (52% increase since 2001/02). In 2011/2012 alone, passenger journeys rose by 7.8% compared to the previous year.

Bus Travel:

• There were 4.7 billion bus passenger journeys in England in 2011/12. This is a 0.5% increase from the 2010/11 level.

Car Travel:

• The number of licensed motor vehicles in Great Britain has increased from about 4 million in 1950 to over 34 million in 2011.

• In 2011, the overall motor vehicle traffic volume in Great Britain was 303.8 billion vehicle miles. This is similar to traffic volume in 2010 (303.2 billion vehicle miles).

•Car traffic increased slightly (0.4%) between 2010 and 2011, from 239.8 to 240.7 billion vehicle miles.

London Travel:

• The total number of trips in London in 2011 was 25.5 million per day, an increase of 1% over the previous year. There has been a 4.9% annual increase from 2010 to 2011 in number of underground trips.

•Underground grew particularly strongly, with 7.3% more passenger kilometres travelled and 5.7% more journey stages compared with 2010/11. A total of 72 million train kilometres were operated on the Underground in 2011/12, up from 69 million in 2010/11 and above the previous high of 71 million in 2008/09.

• The 5.7% increase in journey stages means the underground transported 1,171 million passengers in 2011/12

Geography of Time/Touchpoints

The Geography of Time (GoT) research recorded 1,200 days of consumers’ activities through a PDA diary. The PDA diary was similar to Touchpoints and analysing the two data sources can create some very interesting insight about time use and in particular planning OOH by time of day.

When planning OOH to reach consumers at a particular time of day you could argue that there are four major factors that need to be considered. Where you are, what you are doing, who you are with and what is your wellbeing/mood.

For example, Figure 2.0 demonstrates when 16-34 year olds tell us they are socialising on an average Thursday to Saturday. Socialising occurs all day but peaks at around 8.30-9pm. At this time a massive 46% are watching TV, but only 11% of them are watching TV and socialising. Whilst 28% of 16-34 are OOH at 9pm and half of them tell us they are OOH and socialising. Therefore if brand messages are intended to be seen by the target consumer in a social situation then OOH is an ideal medium for this.

Social Cities

Wellbeing is determined by many macro factors such as the Economy, Governance, Natural Environment and realistically most of this is beyond our control. However an individual’s wellbeing is also largely affected by more social aspects such as what we do, where we live and our relationships as summarised in the figure below:

90% of the GB population live in urban areas and as such our understanding of how people perceive their urban environments is vital ... particularly as most OOH inventory is in conurbations. So we commissioned an insight project surveying 3,500 respondents from 5 major GB conurbations to gain insight into city life. We also compared the Geography of Time PDA study to time use studies from the past to understand how this might affect wellbeing:

Some key insights include...

• In 1974 the separation between work & leisure was distinct but today the boundaries are far more blurred

•People are happiest when they are with others doing any number of social activities, which has clear implications for joint targeting

•Perceptions of cities is improving particularly around leisure and shopping facilities

•Brands have opportunities to give back to the community particularly in the provision of public spaces & leisure. Even more poignant now as the cost of leisure is increasing

•Community spirit improved in 2012 with the Jubilee and Olympics but we don’t really socialise with our neighbours - as such we travel to meet up with family and friends

VirtuoCity

VirtuoCity is a joint insight project between Posterscope and JCDecaux. It is a 4-minute driving simulation where research respondents watch video footage that follows a car driving through the suburbs and into the town centre. Specialist laptops measure respondents’ eye-tracking, and then recall studies identify the memorability of different OOH advertising variables within the virtual city.

These OOH variables included size, orientation, frequency and animation. The brand creatives and poster locations were rotated for different respondents, so the results were based on the advertising variables rather than the creative.

If you have not seen the presentation then please get in touch with your regular Posterscope contact or Russell Smither at russell.smither@posterscope.com or 020 7863 2009 to arrange a date.

In future months we hope to transfer these learnings from the virtual world into the real world to plan OOH more effectively. This will be done by applying the modelled VirtuoCity results to the new OOH industry currency – Route. VirtuoCity was also voted Best Research Paper at the 2012 MRG Conference...

“Love Posterscope/JCDecaux paper proving some long held beliefs about size, orientation, frequency and animation value in OOH” Kristin Bayliss, Universal McCann

“One of the coolest presentations I’ve ever seen. It’s like grand theft auto of the OOH planning world” Mediatel

VirtuoCity provides great insight into levels of fixation, recall and the “Engagement Index” for OOH exposure elements. The example in the figure below demonstrates this for poster size:

OOH – THE BRAND BUILDING MEDIUM

A recent report from the IPA suggested that the largest part of an advertising budget should still be invested in media with a mass reach and long-term effects. At least 60% should be invested in such brand-building media. OOH has always been upheld as a broadcast medium, particularly large format posters, that have strong brand building potential due to their mass reach and stature.

In 2012 Nestlé launched an NPD, Nescafé Gold Crema, using a large format 48 sheet campaign. Research conducted by brand tracking specialists, Millward Brown, proved the effect of OOH in driving significant increases in brand awareness, trial and importantly brand equity.

The figure below demonstrates how respondents who saw the OOH campaign were:

• 24% pts more likely to be aware of Gold Crema

• 8% pts more likely to have trialled Gold Crema

• 4% pts more likely to buy Gold Crema nowadays

CONVERGENT OOH – INTERACTIVE NFC/QR CODE CAMPAIGNS

2012 was the year that saw the first large scale convergent NFC/QR Code OOH campaigns. Innovative brands such as Nestlé, Sony and Beck’s took advantage of these mobile technologies and saw high levels of consumer interaction.

Interaction data has provided great insight into which technologies (QR Code/NFC) consumers choose to interact with and what times/days are generating the highest levels of response. NFC is experiencing growing levels of response as more consumers are becoming aware of NFC and many more mobile handsets are adopting the technology.

Figure 3.0 shows how NFC accounted for 10% of all interactions in March 2012 during the JCDecaux Reading test. This figure rose to a quarter (25%/23%) for the national campaigns for Kit Kat and Sony Xperia, which took place 6 months later in Sept/Oct 2012.

Interestingly for campaigns where a specific keyword search term was given, few consumers chose this as their method of response. This we feel is because consumers enjoy using these newer technologies. When brands give them an opportunity to interact via them, they chose these. Consumer research below has also proven they rate interaction experiences highly when using NFC/QR Codes. Search on the other hand is so familiar that consumers will not use this so often as a method of interaction, but rather to find out more general information about the brand/campaign.

As mentioned above, consumer research has proved that the technologies of NFC/QR Codes are rated particularly highly as a method of interaction. Research conducted amongst those who interacted with the Kit Kat campaign proved that 55% rated the QR Code/NFC interaction experience as “very good” whilst the figure was 25% for search. NFC/QR codes were rated particularly highly for speed, convenience & ease of use.

Consumer research also proved that interactions have a very positive effect on brand equity. Those interacting with the poster rated Kit Kat across 8 key brand metrics as 9% pts higher than the control (who didn’t interact). For those interacting by NFC/QR Code average brand equity scores were 20% pts higher.Even more profound was that interaction is increasing purchase consideration. Figure 3.1 demonstrates that of those who interacted, consideration to purchase was 15% pts higher than the control. Whilst for those interacting via NFC/QR it was 28% pts higher.

In March 2013 CBS Outdoor’s online research panel work.shop.play. celebrated its first birthday. During its first 12 months it gained insight on a wide variety of categories including holidays & travel, motors, cosmetics & beauty, computer gaming, and London attractions... to name a few. To find out more, please click on this link: CBS Outdoor work.shop.play Below is the 2013 timetable for forthcoming categories they are asking their panel. If you are interested in submitting potential questions for these then please contact either:

Work.shop.play. London Community

CBS Outdoor wants to investigate the influence Londoners have in terms of the power of their word of mouth. The hypothesis for this is because of London itself; London is different to the rest of the UK – the people, their mindsets, attitudes and behaviours are different and they are shaped by the multicultural urban environment they live in. CBS Outdoor will recruit between 300/400 panellists from the WSP online panel and ask them to take part in a series of surveys and discussion forums from March to August with the findings being made available in Autumn 2013. Such insight will hope to complement current WOM studies such as Keller Fay WOM questions on TouchPoints. Ultimately CBS intends to understand who the London influencers are and how advertisers can target them.

The London Worker Planning Tool

CBS Outdoor is gaining valuable market insight from its industry approved planning tool. Unlike previous industry surveys which focus on London’s 7.5 million residents, the London Worker research analyses the day to day movement and media habits of London’s 3.8 million workers.

In 2012 Primesight invested substantially in creating a results culture and below is a link to their website with case studies across a wide range of environments and formats such as digital, specials, lifestyle, retail, roadside and transport.

Primesight Case Studies

Campaign Research 2012

In 2012 Clear Channel worked in partnership with a number of advertisers driving an understanding of the power of OOH within the multi-media world. They have a range of case studies which show how OOH, and in particular 6-sheets, drive awareness of new product launches and brand repositioning, creating an emotional connection with consumers whilst driving consideration and purchase.

Interactive Out-Of-Home Advertising Research Project

In 2012 Clear Channel also carried out a bespoke research project on their award-winning iD6 unit to understand interactivity and engagement in out-of-home advertising. The results demonstrate:

•How best to engage the consumer

•When and where engagement should take place

•What type of content is best

• Length of time the consumer will interact

•What it means for brands who interact with consumers in this way

•How to engage with today’s consumer; via mobile, social media or touch screen

In 2013 Clear Channel, via their Research Monitor, will continue to partner with advertisers to provide insights on audiences and how they interact with OOH advertising within a multi-media world.

Clear Channel Mobile Platform

In March 2013, Clear Channel launched the UK’s first permanent high street mobile platform for outdoor media; 10,000 high-street 6-sheets were initially equipped with both Near Field Communications (NFC) and QR code capabilities. The consumer will tap or scan their mobile device on interactive panels on high streets and in town centres right across the UK, providing brands with a platform to deepen their engagement and interaction with their audiences through interactive content and social media integration. This reiterates out-of-home’s importance in the media communication mix. For more information click on the following link: Clear Channel Mobile Platform
