Audience Profiling

Audience Identification and Profiling research paints a detailed picture of a core market―their demographics, basic category behaviors and attitudes, psychographics underlying those behaviors and attitudes, and opinions of the marketplace.

This method is a critical step when introducing a new brand or product and can be a cost-efficient alternative to a segmentation.

Beyond basic statistical profiling, W5 explores the relationship of consumers’ lifestyles, life stages, beliefs, and habits to define their potential engagement with the brand and/or product.  Audience Identification and Profiling is best used to identify a target audience for a product, service, or message.

“If you want to understand how a lion hunts, don’t go to the zoo. Go to the jungle.”
