The tool nearest to hand is NOT necessarily the best one.. Just the closest
n Stochastic (counting) tools are easy to write n It doesn’t mean they tell you very much

Totem talk from Rosie Campbell
n Start with shared meanings n Cultural discourses n Family stories n Telltale words used
n Only look at the component words when you understand the shared context
n Several totems in each market – demarcate each one THEN identify component words Source: Inside language - how to spot totem poles

Branding trains
John Griffiths, Planning Above and Beyond, UK NewMR “Listening is the new asking” – Text Analytics and Market Research, March 8, 2011
Attaching brands to trains..
n Can be artificial – imposed n Better to discover which train the brand fits with n And find the right time to make the brand
connection – in the right part of the train n Fill the train – don’t try to own it
John Griffiths, Planning Above and Beyond, UK NewMR “Listening is the new asking” – Text Analytics and Market Research, March 8, 2011
Tying this down..
n Using qualitative analysis or reanalysis of existing studies to identify different trains, the mix of carriages – analysis by hand
n THEN use analytic engines to track the train – analysis using automated processes

n Work TOP down – sort the trains before the carriages
n Sample – grade the data rather than increase the size of the dataset – to bring clarity – reduce noise increase signal
n Don’t use a tool just because its there or because its free..
