- Breakout C: How MSF used audience insight to develop digital channels This case study outlines how MSF used research with existing audiences, including supporters and site visitors, to develop its website and social media channels. With fantastic results including a 91% increase in online donations in the first 12 months, it’s unsurprising that this project, which started off in the digital team, has inspired change throughout the organisation. Ben will outline how he identified MSF's audiences, what research methods were used to better understand them and how this insight was applied to develop the charity's digital channels.

- Weakness: lots of donors, but fewer volunteers and not many fundraisers at all
- Heavily skewed by the email newsletter constituency About a third: news A third to donate 17% had never visited the site – remember that this was from the email newsletter Other: Prompted by email (5/12). Read son’s blog, find contact details : genuinely miscellaneous
- If we look at content popularity from the analytics we see a different story: work generally is the top content, with news content coming further down the list Top 500 pages looked at: 93% of all page views covered
- Very strongly perceived as dedicated, inspiring, selfless, brave, honest Optimistic organisation High profile is interesting: previous market research (The Works, 2005) said participants thought it lower profile. Similarly underground / edgy (see high profile) Exciting only edged into the agree section Romantic: somewhat disagreed with, contrary to the previous research. Broadly speaking it’s not seen as corporate or pushy – pushy is interesting, previous research suggested that this lack of pushiness was appreciated by participants And it’s clearly not thought of as Aloof, intimidating and Amateur Overall a really good set of ratings Partly this has been included as a benchmark for the emotional response testing we’re going to run later
- People who are self-described as current donors: previous table segmented These users are somewhat interested in lots of different types of content, but no single type stands out. Schools, volunteering in the UK and overseas all rank relatively low – no surprise: this audience is clearly different from the volunteers
- N=8! Not a great sample to be drawing conclusions from. Overall higher scored than with the Donors: fundraisers are more engaged generally Work done again top ranked – joint here with stories from the field (blogs etc.) Volunteering ranks highly: this group is more interested in how to get involved
- Visitor types were prioritised by stakeholders in the personas workshop
- Average is the important number here: this is an index of overall content importance. Higher is better.
- Last one in particular is interesting
- Overall performance on this task was satisfactory. Almost ¾ located the content – not far from the idiot factor free 87% (roughly), that would indicate total success.
- This is clearly successful. There’s some traffic going to How MSF acts, and some to the Research section: both understandable: this content should be cross-linked to from both of these areas where appropriate
- Use different phone numbers in different places so you now which channels are working for you Stay on top of Google Analytics and produce reports measuring the impact of activities Use tracking code in all email links, tweets etc Pay attention to FB and Twitter data to see what works, when it works best (e.g. Quotes on FB posts made a massive difference) Use tools to run A/B tests to see what works best. This way the data gathered from one campaign will refine the next campaign Ask supporters for feedback – spend the time and money on focus groups Spend the time to dissect the campaign once it is finished and be honest about what worked and what didn’t – don’t just repeat the same mistakes Aim for bigger and better next time, no matter how successful!
