“IT’S NOT ABOUT THE RESEARCH, IT’S ABOUT THE REVOLUTION…
THE OVERTHROWING OF A “SOCIAL ORDER” IN FAVOUR OF A NEW SYSTEM…

GEARING UP FOR THE ES…
• As the ES sample, was based on new area
definitions, BRC TAMS was aligned in preparation for
the NEW ES UNIVERSE UPDATE
• In preparation…
– The IHS area definitions (METRO / URBAN /
RURAL)
– Nielsen coded the BRC TAM panel to match the
new area definitions, READY FOR WEIGHTING
– CLEAR NEW WEIGHTING MODEL

SEM TARGETING EXAMPLE…
• Suppose you wanted to advertise petrol, motor spares or used cars…
• The more precisely one defines the TM, the less the wastage and the better the ROI.
