Touchpoints-ROI is a state-of-the-art communications tracking system.

It allows marketers to measure all contacts that occur between target consumers and their brands - not only via advertising such as TV, print, radio, outdoor but also touchpoints such as product usage, in-store experience, word of mouth, viral marketing, CRM, Internet and even observation of others using the product.

This approach provides real-time data with a 360-degree overview of brand touchpoints.

Touchpoints-ROI combines Internet surveys with mobile phone based tacking. During the tracking phase consumers can also provide pictures, movies and free comments about the touchpoints that they experience. The outputs are thus a combination of both quantitative hour-by-hour, day-by-day tracking and qualitative insight:

The method is ideal for:

  • Auditing media & promotional support and distribution channels to assess what activity is most effective and cost efficient in driving a brand's sales.
  • Gauging the performance of a brand versus its competitors in terms of its "Brand Energy" and benchmarking effectiveness all touch points including those such as word-of-mouth...
  • Tracking a campaign or new product launch, to ensure that the target market is receiving the intended message via the various channels being used. Real time feedback allows marketers to make quick corrections, if necessary.

In the words of the words of the official conference blogger at the 2007 World Advertising Research Council (WARC) conference in London, "a multi-channel campaign with a mix of metrics is becoming the accepted smart way to do marketing and in Touchpoints ROI I think we probably have the most exciting methodology of the future to achieve this..."

Touchpoints-ROI was developed by the UK-based communications research agency MESH Planning and is exclusively available in Japan from JMI.
