Reaching a Fragmented Audience: A Needs-Based Approach
Jeff Seltzer, Managing Partner, Hypothesis
Megan Barbie, Executive Director of Research, ABC

ABC has traditionally targeted viewers based on demographics like age and gender. However, as the television landscape continues to evolve with more choices than ever, it became necessary to understand viewer preferences and needs on a more sophisticated level. ABC is not a “niche” network, so a traditional segmentation approach would not be adequate. Instead, we used segmentation to provide a holistic, needs-based view of the total content viewing audience including “cord cutters”. Our approach included a large-scale quantitative survey along with innovative video journaling. We considered not only content preferences, but viewing occasions, platform preferences, and lifestyle. Insights are used internally on multiple levels including programming/content scheduling, marketing, content development, pilot testing, ad sales, and multi-platform/TV Everywhere strategy.
