O Mobile Citizen, where are thou?
By Caspar Hautvast, Vodafone
and Gerard Loosschilder, SKIM
In our market
research practice,
respondents are
migrating from
traditional
devices
(notebooks and
desktops) to
mobile devices
(smart phones
and tablets)
It is part of a transition
from being a Domestic
Citizen (digital life from
home) to a Mobile
Citizen (digital life
everywhere and 24/7)
We utilize this transition by making
our surveys context dependent:
not just based on who the respondent
is, but moreover, where he is, when
she is there, and what she is up to
In a world of fierce competition
Mobile
Broadband
Fixed
TV
OTT
Vodafone has 66 competitors in
the Netherlands; four real
networks and 62 virtual network
operators. Vodafone needs a
meaningful point of difference
Vodafone is
Vodafone’s meaningful point of difference is:
Easiest to choose for
Easiest to manage your digital life
Easiest at taking our surveys
She is mobile
We’re ready
Because we see great potential
But is mobile research valid?
Our research has shown
that we can take a
traditional conjoint choice
exercise down from 12
tasks with 5 options each
down to 3 choice tasks
with 3 options each, at the
same level of validity.
The respondent goes
from sitting a half hour
behind a computer …
…to
three
taps on
a mobile
phone
while on
the go
Because we have
fewer data points
per respondent, we
need to two things,
(1) we increase the
sample size to n>
600 at a low CPI
and (2) we user
smarter research
designs with better
D efficiency and M
efficiency levels
Interaction design
We have a research program in place
to prepare ourselves for the Digital Era
and to reach the Mobile Citizen
Who? The transition to mobile marks
a paradigm shift in the way
we do our studies.
Who? Before, we focused on the “who” only:
who do we want to understand and study?
Who do we select to participate in our studies?
Who? We assumed that who you were
was a constant across all situations and contexts.
Or we did not think about it at all.
Where & When? Now, we can select respondents
based on where they are,
at what moment, and what they are up to
Where & When? Assuming that people are impacted by their context;
something we should take into account.
Where & When? So we can take into account how the context
shapes the individual, or select them solely
on the basis of where they are, and when
We can use this to
better understand
customers in
Vodafone’s retail stores
We can do a exit poll of
customers in Vodafone
stores to gauge their
likelihood of churning to
and from the brand, as
an effect of the sales
pitch of shop floor
personnel and other
information.
Each store is described
in terms of the
coverage area of its
visitor base and the
likelihood of churning
away from the
Vodafone brand, based
on a mobile CBC study.
