  10. So How was AMPS used for Attitude Segmentation? Cluster Analysis Statements Grouping Statements Battery Correlation and normalisation of factors • I am more likely to buy brands that I have seen or heard advertised (applicable) • Advertising is a useful source of information about where products can be bought (truth) • People who try new brands they see or hear advertised (are similar or not to me) • Being part of a community is important to me (applicable) • A person should have lots of friends (agree) Education Community Crime Health Ubuntu Religion Materialism Entertainment Loneliness Branding Shopping Innovation Information Family ? ? ? ? 26+ 5 100 6 Source: Saarf AMPS (All Media Products Survey)

  11. Attitude Segmentation Sizing and Mean Attributes

  12. Using attitude statements as a starting point, six distinct segments have been identified within the South African Adult population The SABC Attitudinal Segmentation Four dimensions of segments in order of priority • Nation Builders: • Community • Ubuntu • Culture • Information • Global Citizens: • Innovation • Sport • Information • Entertainment 4.7m 6.5m 5.3m • Now Generation: • Materialism • Shopping • Status • Education • The Rooted: • Crime • Poverty • Environment • Education 6.2m 5.8m • The Survivors*: • Fin Indiscretion • Gender Roles • Xenophobia • Loneliness • The Established*: • Fin Indiscretion • Gender Roles • Loneliness • Xenophobia 5.9m *: The characteristics of the Established (LSM6-10) and Survivors (LSM 1-5) are identical, but there is a distinct separation due to the Living Standard Measure Index (IGraph represents current distribution as at AMPS Jan-Dec 2011

  13. Sizing the Segments: 2007 to 2011The Impact of External Stimuli Source: AMPS Jan-Dec Surveys (Current Adult Pop 15plus = 35m. *Some Notes: Dec 2008 survey required further Ward Analysis to re-model segments.

  15. Nation Builders Nation Builders are the cheerleaders of South Africa. They are defined by their cultural customs and traditions. Community, culture and family are very important to them.

  16. Now Generation The Now Generation is the young fibre of South Africa. They are highly materialistic and full of aspiration. Fashion and entertainment is high on their priority list. They are fast paced and greatly influenced by advertising. They do not believe that old ways are always the best, they are often first to try out new things. They love variety and choice.

  17. Survivors The Survivors represent those people who are marginalised because of their very limited resources. They feel isolated and alienated by the general South African society. They have learnt to survive on their own as a result they are closer to their immediate community and environment. This segment strongly feels that efforts to alleviate poverty have not been successful. Their isolation makes them anxious about the present & long for the past.

  18. Established The Established wilfully isolate themselves from the broader society and often feel lonely as a result. The environment is important to the majority of this segment and they believe that not enough is being done to look after it. They are not easy adopters of modern technology. They are not particularly patriotic but committed to living in South Africa. They prefer ‘outdoor lifestyle’ and this comes from their standard of living. Defining Demographics & Attributes • More older than younger • Mostly White, coloured and Indian • Predominantly English and Afrikaans • Predominantly in Urban and Small Urban areas • Withdraw themselves from immediate society • Earthy people • Conscious of environmental issues • Prefer the “old way” of doing things • Less hope for a shared future Media Value Vision The SABC will serve the Established by providing differentiated content on TV, Radio and New Media that recognises and addresses perceptions of alienation and embraces their need to part of a broader South African society.

  19. Global Citizens Global Citizens represent innovation, wealth and technology. They live busy lives and seem to thrive at the next challenge. They do not like to be restricted by tradition and believe in equal opportunities for both men and women. This group of people is well travelled and therefore has a broad outlook in life.

  20. Rooted With mounting socio-economic pressures “The Rooted” have become increasingly concerned about crime, poverty and education. As a result they have become pragmatic about women also providing for their families. They continue however to have low expectations for the mutual benefits of community involvement. Defining Demographics & Attributes • Fairly spread across all demographics with high representation of Indians, Coloureds and Whites • Not social activists • Stability is important to them • Like keeping it simple • Literacy and education are linked to personal development • Indoor types • Jobs are for earning money and NOT for satisfaction • Not at ease with technology but not afraid to use it • Financially prudent & plan for the future Media Value Vision The SABC will serve the Rooted through programmes on TV and radio that recognise the cultural richness and diversity of the South African audience while encouraging a sense of belonging
