With the coming together of our three companies, Quaestor, AIA and Buckingham Research. We wanted to celebrate in style with an official launch party to mark this important occasion in history.

So on a delightful sunny evening on June 3rd, we were joined by clients old and new, for a relaxed and informal evening of cocktails, gourmet BBQ and charming warm weather to celebrate the dawn of Optimisa Research.

The evening went like a dream, with a fantastic turn-out and plenty of purple cocktails being consumed! We want to thank everyone who attended and for making it a night to remember (even if there were a few sore heads the next morning).

We look forward to working with you all in the future and hope to see you at one of our client events soon.

Qmedia’s research has been a key element in Dave’s phenomenal success and has been recognised as such by being shortlisted for a 2008 MRS award for Application of Research and a 2008 Research Magazine Award for Business Transformation.

The research programme conducted by Qmedia had three distinct stages, stage one identified opportunities to increase UKTV G2’s audience share and brand ‘stickiness’ amongst target audiences, stage two determined the most impactful and appropriate name for a potential re-brand of UKTV G2 (Dave) and stage three defined the most effective creative route for the re-brand.

A key component of the research at each stage were the UKTV G2 (Stages 1 and 2) and Dave (Stage 3) branded online forums, run after the face-to-face group sessions with target and core viewers. This allowed us to re-visit respondents after initial analysis and discussion with the UKTV Team to further explore key themes through a series of daily questions.

Within one month of launch, Dave’s audience share increased by 35%; in three months the channel had attracted an additional eight million viewers to the UKTV network and in six months it had delivered £4.5m profit. Dubbed “the shock hit channel of the year” by the Guardian, the evidence of success of the re-brand is overwhelming.

The clarity of Qmedia’s story regarding UKTV G2’s identity crisis prompted us into action and kick-started the UKTV G2 re-branding process.
Luke Hales, Strategic Research & Planning Manager, UKTV

Qmedia and the research they undertook was fundamental to the development of the ‘Dave’ concept. Their research led to the channel’s positioning and ultimately helped us realise our creative routes full potential. Having Qmedia work across the research’s three stages ensured we worked with a company who fully understood where we were going and what we were trying to achieve. This bore out in the success of the channels launch and the strength of the brand that has been created.
Steve North, Dave Channel Head, UKTV

We determined the success of adverts placed in Video on Demand formats in terms of heightening awareness and improving brand metrics such as propensity to purchase, message take out, brand associations.

Channel 4 has presented these ground-breaking results at MRG Lisbon 2008, and to most major media agencies. The pioneering work has been recognised by the Market Research Society with their 2009 award for Advertising and Media Research.

A combined study with initial in-home qualitative fieldwork at the first stage, which revealed behaviours & added depth to the later quantitative, whilst also providing vox pop evidence for eventual debrief.

The quantitative consisted of three projects from June to November 2008, all using 20-30 minute online surveys and checking respondents’ exposure to the 4 On Demand services via a list of programmes viewed. Test vs control comparisons were achieved by sampling users and non users of the 4 On Demand service, weighted to typical nationally representative profiles and matched where appropriate.

We looked at over 20 campaigns in total, with data analysed at both campaign and aggregated level. Respondents were recruited from a consumer access panel (online), from client’s own website and also subscriber databases.

The qualitative research featured engagement diaries and in-home observation of how people use and engage with TV and online in a natural context: a ‘quasi-ethnographic’ approach. Detailed family interviews and controlled visits to prescribed websites / TV channels provided the opportunity to probe and understand behaviour and attitudes. In-home sessions were video-taped, to add impact and richness to the results presentations.

The quantitative stage employed a 25 minute online survey, conducted among a demographically representative sample of 3,011 respondents. These were ‘digital consumers’: with digital TV and broadband internet in the household and using each medium to at least an average extent: the ‘tech-savvy’. In this way, the approach ensured the research was future-facing and indicative of trends to be expected among the mainstream population over the next few years. The research included six example campaigns, two from each of three market categories: FMCG, cars and financial services. Hence, we were able to provide feedback on the mechanics of each individual campaign, consistent themes within each category and similarities or differences across the categories.

The study provides guidance for planners and creative teams in terms of maximising this opportunity, confirming that using TV and online ads together is significantly more powerful than using either of these media in isolation. It provides the first robust proof of this principle and demonstrates quantitatively how much more powerful combined campaigns can be. Improvements in brand metrics of over 50% were seen for many campaigns. Qmedia and the clients between them have delivered 50+ presentations of the results since launch, whilst also achieving considerable levels of press coverage. In total, around 200 organisations are now believed to have seen these results presented.

This important study delivers clear evidence of just how powerful and effective the TV and online combination is. Advertisers have been clamouring for more research about TV and online and, going forward, I’m certain these results will be highly influential to media planning.
Guy Philipson, CEO IAB

We’ve never had such demand for one of our research studies to be presented.
Dave Brennan, Research & Strategy Director Thinkbox

This research shows that TV and online are perfect partners and I would urge advertisers to recognise the greater impact they can have if they use both together. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts. TV benefits from the way online offers a means of expressing and exploring the desires and motivation TV creates. Online usage is not displacing TV viewing and it is time to celebrate the complementarity of these two most powerful digital media.
Tess Alps, CEO Thinkbox
