Driving stronger marketing performance and business growth across the highly competitive Consumer Electronics landscape Ipsos MMA has been measuring the impact of marketing and other drivers for some of the largest global Consumer Electronics brands since our inception.
Over our 30+ year history, we have developed proprietary methods for capturing the mid- to long-term effects of media, while balancing it with measurement of price and promotion impacts, to help our clients form investment strategies for their global brands.
As a Solution for Consumer Electronics
Marketing in the Consumer Electronics industry presents a wealth of challenges, including intense competition, short product lifecycles and annual launches, significant variance in pricing across brands and product tiers, highly seasonal sales periods for sub-categories and heavy reliance upon retailer partnerships (while balancing ever evolving ecommerce channels). To address this myriad of obstacles, Ipsos MMA deploys a highly customized approach to analytic development, specific to the client, sub-category and geography. After all, mobile phones, TVs, headphones and home sound systems all fall under the umbrella of Consumer Electronics, but they are all highly unique.
With that, the Ipsos MMA approach focuses on customizing analytic dimensions that match specific client’s needs, and defining unique measurement approaches to account for price and promotion, in-store activities, marketing/media planning and budget allocation/optimization, brand health and forecasting. At Ipsos MMA, we can model Consumer Electronic brands at any response level, including brand, product, or price tier, as well across consumer segments, retailers and geographies. We are also uniquely positioned with our deep relationships and experience with retailers to collect and manage the significant data that is necessary to conduct high-value analytics, including store-level models, in order to provide the most granular level of analytic measurement possible.
