Five Reasons Why Mobile Matters

1. It’s In the Moment

2. It’s Accessible

3. It’s Convenient

4. It Enhances the Journey

5. It Delivers Instant Insights

It’s In the MomentDon’t rely on recall and old methodologies–record insights and behavior when they occur by using Lumi Say on a medium that is intrinsic to the user, their mobile device.


mobile device

It’s AccessibleWith over six billion phone subscriptions active today, there are now almost as many mobile devices in the world as there are people. Mobile increasingly gives you access to those traditionally hard-to-reach demographics.








mobile device

It’s ConvenientWith Lumi Say, participants can engage whenever, wherever. Panelists can share data during the in-between, on the subway, in a store aisle–when it’s convenient for them. Thus data collection is rich, realistic, frequent and subsequently more AUTHENTIC.








mobile device

It Enhances the JourneyNative features of Lumi Say provide context and significance to your data capture. It allows for multimedia responses including photos, videos, voxpops and sound–providing meaningful insight into the real-life experiences of the consumer.







It Delivers Instant InsightsMoving to mobile in general, and Lumi Say in particular, is about collecting hard-to-find insights, in a faster, unobtrusive and more sticky way.

Utilize Diarification (di-a-ri-fi-ca’tion)Allow panelists to consume content and create data in a way that lends itself to mobile with manageable, bite-sized chunks. This diary-based ‘dipsticking’ approach will improve speed, accuracy and the user experience. Routing and flow logic personalize and augment the user’s journey.

Diarification | Recording insights as they happen

Simplification and application of usability principles to make data entry easy

Using gamification principles – sectioning, rewards, leader boards & badges – to make the experience more fun and engaging

Dipsticking ensures Data collection is context specific, in-the-moment and continuous

Optimised for personal preference

Keys to Success in Practice

Jane is a global account director for a large, top 5 research agency. The company’s largest client has come up for review and Jane is challenged to convince the client that they should continue with their Tracking Study.

BACKGROUND

PROBLEM

The client has said that although Jane’s company has run this tracker for over 10 years their customers today are all using mobile phones for virtually everything but Jane’s company is asking questions using online and face to face methods.

SOLUTION

Jane’s company proposed splitting their tracker into 2 parts – the first part is conducted at recruitment and measures opinion, attitude and some context via online. The second part via mobile app collecting purchase and usage across a 1 week period.

Jane retains the business, client is convinced she has the best agency partner, agency grows the client, gains more clients off the back of award-winning new approach. Client gets much closer to her customer, captures much richer insight and makes better marketing and business decisions.

RESULT

Tracker Diarification | Jane, the large research agency

Davyd is the Account Director for a healthcare insight agency. They have been challenged to find new ways of providing insight and inspiration for their contact lens client – one of the leading producers of contact lenses in the World.

BACKGROUND

Healthcare Little Big Data | Davyd, the medium client

Historically the research Davyd’s company has done has been considered innovative so the bar is high. They need to find something else which raises standards and provides internal inspiration. Davyd’s company thinks that something that monitors contact lens use on an ongoing basis would be good, but they’re not sure how best to do it.

PROBLEM

Davyd has chosen to work with Lumi and utilise 3 uniquely mobile features – GPS, Push Notification and Camera. The simple methodology asks people about the comfort levels at random points during the day (using push notification), routes them through some simple questions and takes a GPS stamp.

SOLUTION

Davyd is the new superstar. The contact lens client is blown away by the solution and has already rolled it out across many of the major markets. It has created a new problem for Davyd – how does he top that?

Neil is an SVP at one of the premier syndicated services businesses in the world. They work with all the major companies providing syndicated data collection and analysis. They have been dominant in their market for the latest 100 years.

BACKGROUND

Global Savings| Neil, the syndicated services company

Always under competition from others and ongoing cost pressure, Neil’s company is open to solutions which allow them to either improve what they do or save money – so that they can continue to deliver strong shareholder returns.

PROBLEM

Neil has employed Lumi to move from their purpose-built hardware data collection tools to using consumer’s own mobile devices. SOLUTION

It has taken a little while to get this rolled out and all the pilots and split-testing complete but this is now a serious company strategy. This has contributed to a 20% global cost-savings initiative whilst securing the future relevance of their data collection. The best result? The shareholder dividend!

RESULT

Mohit works for the largest research spender in the World. They work across all categories, with all major research agencies and are constantly sourcing the next shooting stars that can support their market leadership position.

BACKGROUND

Insight Transformation | Mohit, the large client

Mohit is convinced his agencies don’t offer him the best thinking – they offer him what they consider is the best thinking through their eyes and for their approach, but this isn’t always what Mohit has in mind. . Mohit has to source best practice and then ensure that his agencies use that in his proposals. Mohit has to search solutions for him and his company. Mohit is concerned that whilst all his customers are on mobile, none of his research is.

PROBLEM

Mohit has chosen Lumi because they have a platform that can work across all forms of quantitative and qualitative research, and integrate with multiple panels and 3rd party technologies. Mohit knows that if it’s possible on mobile then Lumi can help. He is satisfied that they can offer a full service solution and do basically everything required, or they can onboard his agencies so that this becomes self-service. He has used Lumi with quant research – market measurement and tracking, for market research communities and they have just started using Lumi for cross-company brainstorming and conferences.

SOLUTION

Mohit continues to be a go-to guy within his company and is also gaining a reputation as a power user for new technology approaches within the market research world. He has been invited as a keynote for ESOMAR Congress next year.

Pierre is the MD of a top-10 global panel business. They have panels in all of the major markets and are pushing their development in Asia and Latam. They are aware some of their panellists do surveys on their mobile phones and they are relying on their survey providers to make it work for them.

BACKGROUND

The survey provider is content to push mobile web as an option because nobody has convinced him that anything else is worth doing and it minimises any change to his normal way of working. The survey provider knows that one day there will be changes to the online model but, for now, all continues to be well.

PROBLEM

Pierre’s company have discovered they can script once and deploy across all modes. More importantly, the new model they are going with – Lumi – works best for mobile apps and then is compatible simultaneously across all other forms. This is great for Pierre because it means no disruption to his current business and provides him choice for ‘all platforms’ or ‘online only’ (his current option). Pierre can finally bid for new business knowing his technology platform is future-proofed.

SOLUTION

Pierre begins winning more business and then suddenly it takes off beyond his expectations. He has a scalable platform, very engaged panellists and more clients than ever before. A win-win-win.

RESULT

Panel Mobilisation | Pierre, the panel company

The Happy Panelist| Alana, the panelist

BACKGROUND Alana is on a few panels. She got interested in doing research so she could make a difference. Since she started she’s earned a few prizes, been nominated for idea of the month once and she does focus groups whenever she can. It’s great to give some of her ideas and opinions to companies whilst being rewarded at the same time.

PROBLEMAlthough she uses her mobile phone for everything else, Alana hates doing surveys on this device. She gets sent surveys but they just don’t work. She usually drops out of those ones and she’s realised that by the time she gets round to doing them on her PC she’s sometimes missed her chance.

SOLUTIONAlana doesn’t know what’s happened but since she downloaded those survey apps she has received more sensible, relevant and interesting studies than ever before. Sometimes she even gets sent coupons for her favorite companies.

Alana loves doing research, feels even better about the companies she’s doing the work for and has encouraged 3 of her friends to sign up too!

Andrew is a divisional head of quantitative research for a medium-sized research agency. They are famous for their Market Measurement approach which is well-known for providing specific, actionable recommendations. They have the opportunity to pitch for a U&A brief for a global client.

BACKGROUND

U&A Diarification| Andrew, the medium research agency

The client has never used a medium-sized agency for a global U&A before. Andrew’s company has worked hard to get the opportunity but the client has a track record of hiring big agencies – “nobody got fired for hiring IBM.”

PROBLEM

Andrew’s company has held its line on producing a pioneering, innovative approach. They recommend to the client to build on tradition and modernise the approach to market measurement. It does this by breaking the measurement into 2 parts – the first part is conducted at recruitment and measures opinion, attitude and some context via online. The second part via mobile app collecting purchase and usage across a 1 week period.

SOLUTION

Andrew wins the business and off the back of that builds some case studies which wins even more. Andrew gets offered jobs with other companies but stays with his pioneering employer and is delighted when they win Best Agency award at the local awards – voted for by Clients!

RESULT

Cara is the Product Director at a panel agency. She is tasked with sourcing and productising new initiatives that help secure her business’s leadership position. She has been wanting to do something with mobile for some time.

BACKGROUND

Instant Shopping Rewards| Cara, the panel company

The vast amount of work her agency does is regular supply of panel and full-service survey project management. Her agency is now known for pioneering research methodologies – they are known more for low-cost, no-nonsense delivery. Mobile seems like it will be expensive and it ideally needs to leverage their panel assets and positioning.

PROBLEM

Cara has decided to combine a ‘shopper diary’ approach to data collection with instant incentives – provided by retailers. This works by geo-triggering a survey based on location proximity to target stores and then rewarding panelists / participants with an instant discount voucher when they have completed their survey / diary. This allows Cara to keep her costs low (the incentive is paid by the store) and to leverage their panel assets.

SOLUTION

Cara’s company is extending the use of their panelists, growing a new product stream and providing greater reward to panelists while keeping her costs low.

RESULT

Clive is the head of research at the local financial services company. They don’t have the budgets of the large, global players but nonetheless have managed to keep themselves relevant and performing well because of their local roots and clear market positioning.

BACKGROUND

Richer Insights| Clint, the medium client

Clive wants to repeat his bi-annual U&A study, but his budget is even less than the last time and he is under pressure to deliver a presentation that (according to the new CEO) “confirms our strategic direction is right”. Clive is not personally sure that the direction is completely right so he is anxious that with low budgets the company might be sleepwalking to disaster.

PROBLEM

Clive spoke with Lumi. He is happy that Lumi will be able to source cost-competitive panels of customers and non-customers and for the same price point and let people decide whether they want to complete the research using mobile, tablet or PC.

SOLUTION

Clive is personally thanked by the CEO for stopping a potential train crash and helping clarify the strategy before they spent too much money moving away from the heart of the banks positioning. Clive’s work is mentioned in the Annual report, he got an Employee of the Year award and he is now a little bit of a celebrity within the business.

RESULT

Bill is the Account Director for a large research agency. They have been challenged to get beneath the skin of promotional spend effectiveness. The client wants to know whether it is worth putting the money into its on bar promotions – something that’s really difficult to measure.

BACKGROUND

Beer Insights | Bill, the excitable researcher

The hunch is that nobody really can explain why they choose the beers they do. The research undertaken shows that promotions (price, giveaways, brand) are really effective at the bar but this has never been borne out through sales figures. How can Bill and his team solve this?

PROBLEM

Bill conducts a research study where people are asked to record what prompted them to choose any drink they had over a 2 week period – in pubs, restaurants, bars and other environments. This allows them to isolate the data which considers promotional effectiveness. As it turns out, brand and advertising are significantly more impactful than price promotions, special offers, giveaways – than people would claim in the sober light of day.

SOLUTION

Bill’s client is delighted that he can rationalise his promotion spend, focusing on the promotional criteria most likely to have an impact – and reducing his overall spend. Bill’s company start winning awards – internally and externally - and new business off the back of it. The results back up intuition and measure and explain behaviors in a way which was impossible without mobile In the moment.

RESULT

Henry is a head of research for a large convenience retailer. They make a huge amount of money on convenience shopping in developed markets and are looking to expand their footprint. Their target for this year is Africa.

BACKGROUND

Mapping the Unknown | Henry, the expanding retailer

The retail landscape in Africa isn’t well understood by Henry’s company and it seems there is no reliable, consistent retail audit data available. Henry’s company needs to make decisions on where their locations ought to be, what the opportunity is and how best to make it work.

PROBLEM

Henry has armed local field agents, employed by a subcontractor and supervised by Henry’s company, to physically explore a number of territories and record their findings using Lumi. It automatically takes accurate GPS reads and then overlaid with photo, video and pre-designed forms to be completed, Henry’s company builds a very quick, real-time market mapping of the retail landscape, planned to their specific objectives.

SOLUTION

This is actually better than buying retail audit data because it is specc’ed out according to Henry’s needs, not to a broad syndicated service. Henry's company able to make sound, strategic data-in formed decisions about what’s best for the business and the route to market.

Violet’s company are sponsoring a massive, global event which attracts millions of visitors for a single day in one of the World’s largest cities. Violet’s company are spending several million dollars on this event and they would like to understand whether it achieves what they want.

BACKGROUND

Measuring Event Impact | Violet, the sponsorship client

Where do we start? Awareness? Measuring impact on brand without revealing who the brand is? Bringing findings to life from a muilti-sensorial event? Coping with mobile network overload with millions of people within a few metres of one another? Encouraging research participation when a once-in-a-lifetime event is happening before their eyes? All within a tight time and budget!

PROBLEM

Violet is using Lumi both as a self-complete diary and an interviewer-administered survey. The interview lasts an absolute maximum of 2 minutes and the self-complete diary lasts between 2 seconds and as long as the participants wants it to. Rewards, prizes, leaderboards, feedback, ideas and suggestions are all embedded within the standard diary format so participants can get involved however they like – video, audio, text, pictures – with incentives integrated throughout the event.

SOLUTION

Overall, Violet is delighted. The research does exactly what they hoped – provide a measure of success and a rallying call for internal alignment. This also provides Violet with a template for a new unique methodology, combining the best of research objectivity with the beauty and opportunity available from In The Moment research.
