And from the board of TNS to tell us more…

The Population.

The Respondent.

Sample design.

The Sampling Frame

Access to difficult areas

Data Forensics and Validation.

Data weighting.

The Result.

The population

115 communities in Urban areas across South Africa Sandton, George, Nelspruit, Rustenburg, Polokwane, Empangeni, Berea, Umhlanga, Hout Bay etc..…

The respondent

Purchase Decision Makers (PDM) in the household ….responsible for making major decisions on purchases in the home or for the family. ……. aged 16 years or older.

Sample Design

Complex multi-stage stratified sampling at the EA level.

The Sampling Frame – the set of source material

from which the sample is selected.

Prof. Stoker developed an EA sampling frame which Dr. Ariane Neethling has updated and adjusted annually based on the 2007 Community Survey, annual estimates and most recently Census 2011. It is regularly adjusted to make use of the most up to date and accurate information available such as GIS dwelling counts from GTI .

Access to Difficult areas

TNS prides itself on negotiating access to difficult areas. Outlined procedures have been approved by an independent external sampling expert.

EA based sampling More detailed level sampling, considered one of the most accurate approaches to obtain a true reflection of the population of interest due to the relative homogeneity within any given EA.

Data Forensics and Validation

The data must reflect the rigorous and robust

sampling – which allows us to generalise

the total population of households / PDM’s

per community with confidence.

Extensive checks backs on interviews - 33%

Area profiles checked against previous years and other available and comparable external data.

Weighting

Dr. Ariane Neethling has weighted and benchmarked the data, by community, against her sampling frame, which has been updated according to the 2011 Census municipal and provincial data.

The samples for Roots 2010 weredesigned and drawn similar to those ofRoots 2007. The weights, which werecalculated in the same way as in theprevious study, were within acceptablelimits. No abnormal or unusual skewswere found.

The samples for Roots 2013 weredesigned and drawn similar to those ofRoots 2010. The weights, which werecalculated in the same way as in theprevious study, were within acceptablelimits. No abnormal or unusual skewswere found.

Luckily, I can say the same thistime……

Dr. Ariane Neethling

The Questions 45 minute in home interview based on behaviour across numerous shopping categories.Objective – to “open” as many business categories as possible.

For retail

The economics of retail are very local. There are economies cross border in many areas… but if you want to be the best you have to be the best local retailer.

Terry Leahy – ex CEO Tesco when asked about Tesco going International

Roots gives you the intelligence to be the best..locally

Luckily most successful SA retailers know this…

This has implications for other businesses

Know The Local Potential

Geography=demography

shopper profiles closely match the area profile - not some idealised description of a brand profile!

advertising was simple but sexy

It was much easier

National media got the reach

It was easy to plan

It was more about being different

There was little pressure

Today that’s part of the imagination world

Coming home – rooted in reality

But Buffet says it best- on why Berkshire Hathaway invested $344 million into local press in 2013

“Newspapers continue to reign supreme in the delivery of local

news. If you want to know what’s going on in your town –whether the news is about the mayor or taxes or high school

football – there is no substitute for a local newspaper that is doing its job. A reader’s eyes

may glaze over after they take in a couple of paragraphs about [national or international news]; a story about the reader himself or his neighbours will be read to

the end.”

Roots is your view on reality
