Segmentation Study Objectives! 15
! Explore perceptions of Israel among all key demographic groups.!! Identify barriers that prevent them from relating to Israel.!! Ascertain which strategic communications approaches can help overcome
these barriers.!

Segmentation Study: Overview of Findings! 16
! Firm, but small and well-defined, base.!! While theres general good will across segments, it is fragile and lacking in depth.!! Large segments are at risk. They represent a significant portion of the population, reflect
the demographic future of the country and include key sources of influence. !! For the at risk groups, this is not about being pro-Israel or pro-Palestinian. This is about
their relationship to Israel, and we risk losing them -- to indifference, to alienation or tobeing negatively branded.!
! At-risk groups are fundamentally different in outlook, values and style of engagement fromcore supporters.!
! Many of the things that our core group likes to hear and say actually alienate the at riskgroups. We need to say something different and say it in a very different style to expandour reach.!
! Fortunately there is an approach that resonates with these groups, and the themes thatconnect are consistent across all groups, including our base.!

70%!Summary!
The majority of the country is now in the middle.!
At-risk groups are disengaging from Israel, not adopting a pro-Palestinian position.! This isnt an election Americans can choose neither side. And if they do, Israel
loses.!
Goal of Communications! Cannot solely be support, as a significant percentage of our target audience does
not care about the conflict.! Should be to elevate perceptions of Israel/Israelis.!
Measure of Success! Effectiveness in reversing neutrality.!

In-Market Impact! 72
"Last year when the BDS movement hosted their international conference at the
University of Pennsylvania, Hillel turned to the groundbreaking research done by
Brand Israel Group for guidance. Their findings laid the foundation for creating thenational response and helped us focus on issues that matter most to collegestudents.!Their work also inspired us to move beyond an advocacy approach that wouldhave been filled with facts and figures intended to counter the BDS message.Instead, we created a curriculum for students that transcended the crisisnarrative and focused on humanizing Israelis.!The approach has been widely recognized as successful and we continue to use it as
the template for connecting college students to Israel.

The work of Brand Israel Group (BIG) has significantly informed our efforts at
countering the assault on Israels legitimacy. Their Segmentation Study identified thecommunications gap between core supporters of Israel and the at-risk middle -those who are vulnerable to the messages of delegitimization. It demonstrated themost effective way of reaching the at-risk audiences and insulating them from the
delegitimizers.
In dealing with incidents across the country in communities, on campuses or in othervenues their approach works.
