New data points enhance marketers understanding of their consumers

Spending is now provided at the product and retailer levels within each major category of luxury

Enhancing this year's Luxury Report 2011 are new data points that show exactly how the affluents' money is being spent and how it is changing from year to year.  It contains data about the average amount spent within a particular product category, such as Luxury Fashion Accessories, and within the category to the average amount spent on women's shoes or women's handbags, for example.  It enables marketers to identify what products are up and down within their product category. 

Further this report provides an estimate within product category of how the consumers' share of wallet is divided based upon type of store.  So you can tell when affluent shoppers are shifting their spending out of one retailing segment and into another.  For example, this year affluents spent less of their fashion accessories budgets in department stores and more in specialty fashion boutiques. 

This report doesn't stop with the data -- It pushes further to help marketers and retailers put the information to use

Translate the data into information that marketing executives can use to make critical strategic decisions 

This market research report helps make the research data and findings accessible and useable.  It provides marketers with three powerful perspectives:  "The What", "So What" and  "Now What."  This report is filled with advice and guidance for luxury marketers to take action on the research findings revealed. 

Special feature: Find out which of the five different types of luxury consumers are your best customers

A special feature in Unity Marketing's Luxury Report 2011 is a psychographic profile of five key types of luxury consumers. These include:

• X-Fluents (Extremely Affluent) who spend the most on luxury and are most highly invested in luxury living;
• Butterflies, the most highly evolved luxury consumers who have emerged from their luxury cocoons with a passion to reconnect with the outside world. Powered by a search for meaning and new experiences, the butterflies have the least materialistic orientation among the segments, yet they spend nearly as much as the X-Fluents on luxury;
• Luxury Cocooners who are focused on hearth and home. They spend most of their luxury budgets on home-related purchases;
• Aspirers, those luxury consumers who have not yet achieved the level of luxury to which they aspire. They are highly attuned to brands and believe luxury is best expressed in what they buy and what they own.
• Temperate Pragmatist a newly emerged luxury consumer who is not all that involved in the luxury lifestyle.  As their name implies, they are careful spenders and not given to luxury indulgence.

When a Report Won't Do:

Sometimes you don't have the time to do a great deal of analysis or you need to share complex information with other members of your team.  An in-depth research report, while cost effective, is not always the most efficient way for helping your colleagues and executive management understand current consumer trends that directly impact your business.

Unity Marketing offers a solution.  Pam Danziger can transform the written research report into a learning experience for you and your team.   She will extract the most pertinent pieces of data from the research report and prepare and present a custom presentation specifically to address your company's critical issues.  Not only will she extract and explains the data most relevant to your core business, she will highlight the trends most likely to affect you in the coming months and years.  In addition, after the presentation you can ask her those hard questions you really need answers to and get her expert perspective on the issues of most importance to you.

After just a few hours, you and your entire team will be fully informed and ready to put the research findings to work in creating new marketing or product strategies.

There are several presentation options including a webcast or an in-office presentation.  Call Pam at 717-336-1600 to discuss your needs further.
