Meet The “Connected Consumer”

In August 2009 Razorfish surveyed 1,000 U.S. “connected consumers”*:

•  Broadband access

•  Spent $150 online in the past six months (travel, Netflix, tickets, Amazon, etc.)

•  Visited a community site (MySpace, YouTube, Facebook, Yelp, etc.)

•  Consumed or created some form of digital media such as photos, videos, music or news

WHAT IS YOUR AGE?

Yes, You Can Build A Brand Online. You Have No Choice

•  65% of consumers have had a digital experience change their opinion about a brand

•  97% of them report that experience influencing whether or not they purchased a product or service from that brand

HAS AN EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE HAD ONLINE EVER CHANGED YOUR OPINION (EITHER POSITIVELY OR NEGATIVELY) ABOUT A BRAND OR THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES IT OFFERS?

HAS THAT EXPERIENCE INFLUENCED WHETHER OR NOT YOU PURCHASED A PRODUCT OR SERVICE FROM THE BRAND?

Brand Culture Or Fan Culture?

•  76% of consumers welcomed brand advertising on social networks (FEED, 2008)

•  40% of consumers “friended” a brand on Facebook and/or MySpace

•  26% of consumers have “followed” a brand on Twitter

The Outlet Malls Of Tomorrow? Facebook, MySpace & Twitter Marketers shouldn’t assume that consumers are as passionate about their brands as they are: Consumers don’t want a conversation with brands – they want deals.

14 

•  44% of consumers who follow a brand on Twitter do so for deals

•  37% of consumers who “friended” a brand on Facebook and/or MySpace do so for deals

WHAT IS THE PRIMARY REASON YOU FOLLOW A BRAND ON TWITTER?

Facebook And Twitter Creating Fan Culture For Brands

After deals, the main reason consumers “friend” a brand? Because they *really* are a fan (or a customer, at least). Social media platforms are proving to be customer service platforms.

•  33% friend a brand on Facebook/ MySpace because they are a customer

•  24% follow a brand on Twitter because they are a current customer

•  23% follow a brand on Twitter for “interesting or engaging” content, which shows promise for a new type of relationship

Fans And The Future Of The Marketing Funnel

Brand culture and fan culture are dramatically reshaping the traditional funnel as consumers leap from experience to advocacy (or the inverse) almost instantly.

•  26% have attended a brand sponsored event, such as Nike’s Human Race

Experiences Not Only Build Brands, They Make Or Break Them

Amazon, Google, Facebook, Apple and Nike are all experiential brands that know consumer preference isn’t formed in reaction to a message, but to a series of experiences over time. There’s good reason. Of consumers who interact:

•  97% report increased brand awareness

•  98% show increased consideration

•  97% will more likely purchase a product

•  96% may recommend the brand to their friends

Getting To The Bottom Of Brand Engagement

Everyone is chasing after a metric to define brand engagement. Millward Brown says “digital consumers” have 15% stronger relationships with brands. The Altimeter Group attempts to correlate social media activity to financial performance, citing Dell, Starbucks and eBay as leaders.

We at Razorfish took a different tack: we simply wanted to know if there was any direct correlation between a consumer’s digital interaction with a brand and their likelihood to purchase a specific product or service.

26 

Page 27: Razorfish Digital Brand Experience

Digital Experience Create Customers The answer was a resounding “yes”. Experiences have a much greater influence over brand affinity and consumer purchasing than even we anticipated:

•  65% of consumers have had a digital experience change their opinion about a brand.

•  97% of those report that experience influencing whether or not they purchased a product or service from that brand.

•  64% of consumer report making a first purchase from a brand because of digital experience (e.g. website, banner, etc.)

HAS AN EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE HAD ONLINE EVER CHANGED YOUR OPINION (EITHER POSITIVELY OR NEGATIVELY) ABOUT A BRAND OR THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES IT OFFERS

HAS THAT EXPERIENCE INFLUENCED WHETHER OR NOT YOU PURCHASED A PRODUCT OR SERVICE FROM THE BRAND?

HAVE YOU EVER MADE YOUR FIRST PURCHASE FROM A BRAND BECAUSE OF A DIGITAL EXPERIENCE (E.G., A WEB SITE, MICROSITE, MOBILE COUPON, EMAIL)?
