                              Chief Experience Officer – MESH
T-Mobile Milestones…from the early days of One2One first
for Picture Messaging & SMS, before becoming T-Mobile




                                       everything
                                         everywhere
Through to the launch of Data, Flext, Network
sharing with 3, Android and the JV with Orange…




                                    everything
                                      everywhere
Brand Tracking at T-Mobile followed a traditional
route pre 2010…


Objective:   Understand Brand Health and the impact from Comms


Pre 2009:    Brand & Ad Tracking combined


2009+:       Removed Ad Tracking,
             Track Brand Health only
             (But Ads still pre-tested)


But issues with linking the two:
•TV Over-claim
•The assumption that nothing else drives Brand Health


                                                    everything
                                                      everywhere
And every month felt like information overload…




                                       everything
                                         everywhere
Leaving us with tough decisions to make each month…




                                     everything
                                       everywhere
KPI setting & measurement = too many cooks…



  Which customers
   • New or Existing?


• Which market
   • PAYM or PAYG?


• Which Metric
   • & How often?




                                  everything
                                    everywhere
In 2010 we set Quarterly objectives…

 TWO lead measures ONLY
  • Brand Consideration
  • VFM


 Use relative position vs. the market
  • Challenger position means we
    need to keep track of the market
  • Accounts for Market Dynamics:
    Not ATL, you’re forgotten


 Business focussed on these
  • We needed to understand how
    best to monitor these and provide
    clear direction on performance


                                        everything
                                          everywhere
Hence a new approach was required for how we
bridge the gap between Brand Health & Comms

 Our Challenges:

 1. Equip us with richer insights to
    help us understand campaign
    impacts and actions to take
 2. Help us understand campaign
    cut-through & wear-out by
    media
 3. Provide a measure of emotional
    and functional performance for
    our communications
     • Demonstrate the impact on
        brand health

Over-arching:
Stop the reactive fire-fighting we’ve adopted when following traditional brand tracking


                                                               everything
                                                                 everywhere

At the end of 2009 and the start of 2010 we experienced a
decline in Consideration for Pay-Monthly…




And we very quickly needed to understand if this was going to worsen or
be turned around by the forthcoming campaign…

Media placement exacerbated wear-out as ad becomes
irritating and people switch off to message

                              “The 'geese' ad again! It’s not just that it is
                               a patronising ad in the first place but it is
                                on such heavy rotation that it rapidly
                                   becomes extremely irritating.”

     “A TV ad with geese going through
  streets of London. I have seen it far too
 often (in the ad breaks during ipl) and so
 haven't really listened to the message
              it's trying to tell.”
