Understanding key consumer
associations to a topic

1. Toyota is only
brand mentioned.

2. Many consumers
describe the different
ways one can lead an
eco-friendly lifestyle,
such as buying
organic or driving a
hybrid car.

3. Consumers
explain the features
of buildings/homes
that use eco-friendly
construction.

Brand Association Map™


Threat Tracker: Toyota Reaches Out to Support Sales
Problem: Potentially critical issue on best-
selling car, post-delivery.
Solution: NBZM identifies affected Camry
Owners “complaining” online, analyzes
commentary.
Action: Proactive online communication and
transparent customer service response.
Result: “We’ve saved customers, we’ve
improved products and we’ve strengthened
loyalty because of this effort.”
- Bruce C. Ertman, Corporate Manager,
Toyota Motor Sales


Buzz Audit: Counter-Culture Company Success

Situation: Niche car manufacturer worries
that its products have become too
mainstream.
Solution: NBZM analyzes consumer
sentiment toward the company‟s new car
designs and media campaign.
Action: Research concludes that the brand
positioning and campaign resonate well with
the target demographic
Result: Company remains confident in this
niche space.


Influencer Audit: Luxury Cruise Company Enlists Fans

Situation: A luxury cruise line company is
launching a new ship and needs help getting
the word out.
Solution: NBZM identifies the most vocal
cruise line enthusiasts in online communities.
Action: Cruise line company invites these
enthusiasts to be the first passengers on this
ship‟s maiden voyage.
Result: Vocal enthusiasts return to their
online communities and give firsthand
accounts of the ship‟s features, qualities.


Efficiency: Financial Institution Mines for Insights
Situation: A national financial institution uses
a staff of 13 to manually categorize 6 million
inbound customer feedback emails per year,
but only 15% are actually bucketed and
analyzed. The financial institution does not
feel it has a clear picture of their customers‟
needs and concerns.
Solution: NBZM applies a data mining and
natural language processing solution to
categorize the client‟s 6 million inbound
emails into nearly 100 distinct buckets.
Result: The client is now able to analyze
100% of inbound customer feedback emails
and can do so with a staff of two. The client
is now confident in its ability to analyze a full
complement of consumer feedback.

Consumer Insights: Pfizer
Situation: Pfizer was concerned that press coverage could
have seriously undermined public confidence in one of
their leading brands. They knew CGM was a potentially
rich source of unprompted patient insight, but thought that
online research would be off-limits to the pharmaceutical
industry because of regulatory guidelines.
Solution: Nielsen worked in partnership with Pfizer and
DSG to develop a novel methodology that didn‟t
compromise European healthcare laws or research quality.

Results: 1) Immediate ROI by demonstrating that a potentially expensive marketing program
wasn‟t necessary
2) Broke down a company barrier to the use of such research – by simple means of creating a
flexible and sympathetic research process – now used across other brands & countries
3) Pfizer was so happy with the work that they submitted the collaboration to the British
Healthcare Business Intelligence Association‟s BOBI awards, where Nielsen was granted first
prize for „Most Innovative Approach‟ for “a smart, innovative, cost effective piece of research,
which demonstrated the business impact and could be used elsewhere in the business.”
4) One major website identified that attracted a lot of chat but wasn‟t previously on Pfizer‟s
media plan for branded patient support advertising
5) Bringing new light to the ongoing understanding of ALL areas of drug products and uses


Shameless plug about listening…

―Nielsen BuzzMetrics delivers a market leading listening platform that includes
sophisticated sentiment analysis capabilities, strong international coverage and
multilingual support…the re-write of the reporting and user interface —
My BuzzMetrics — extends its market leadership.”
The Forrester Wave™ Listening Platform, Q1 2009 Report
