There’s no such thing as the average mom

The "Digital Mums with Young Children Executive Summary" reveals pan-European insights from the 2010 Mediascope Europe study commissioned by the European Interactive Advertising Association. The study looked at the impact having a young family has on the media lifestyles of European women.

Key highlights from the report:



  • Mums with young children are embracing the internet and the internet is playing a crucial role in helping mums enrich and keep in control of their busy everyday lives
  • These digital mums with young children are developing a deeper engagement with online content. In addition to task-based activities they are now using the internet for relaxation and entertainment and to engage with other people online
  • Digital mums with young children are participating and personalising their web experience. They are connecting via social networking sites and contributing to forums and blogs
  • The online activities and shopping habits of digital mums with young children varies significantly compared to those without young children. Advertisers should be aware of these differences in order to outreach to their target market

Virtual friends and fat wallets

Today, more women work outside of the home than ever before. And, those who work at home would rather connect with real friends on Facebook and Twitter instead of virtual friends on television.

From Adweek's Zynga Kills Soaps Audience shifts as viewers become gamers:

While the soap audience has been shrinking for decades, driven by more women in the workplace and a 200-channel universe, the genre's decline appears to have accelerated over the past few years with the meteoric rise of social gaming.

From Newsweek's The Richer Sex - Companies had better cater to women:


Even before the financial crisis, the spending power of women was increasing in both rich and poor countries. The downturn has accelerated the trend, particularly in the United States. American men lost more jobs (they worked in the hardest-hit areas like financial services and manufacturing), whereas women started more companies. The pay gap has also continued to decrease. In 35 percent of double-income households in the United States, wives now make more than their husbands, up from 28 percent five years ago. Assuming the trend continues, the average woman will make more than the average man by 2024.

A few examples of companies who do cater this growing group of women with wallets:

  • “It’s no accident that Apple is the only company in the technology arena making any money,” says Michael J. Silverstein, a partner at Boston Consulting Group. “They make things that are beautiful, and you can charge a lot more for them.”
  • Nintendo is doing a brisk business selling fitness-oriented Wii games to women.
  • Best Buy has added a concierge service (à la Apple) to appeal to female shoppers.
  • In Britain, one of the top players in financial services is also a grocery store—Tesco—which women trust with their food shopping, then later their savings accounts and car insurance.

Magazines are sales tools: Flair pumps case

Flair pumps


One of the main complaints of advertisers is "the effect of magazines on sales can't be measured". Together with: "Magazines are slow in building traffic". Well, thanks to the Dutch Flair readers and shoe retailer Torfs, I have recent proof that these statements are not true. If done in a good way (Knowing your audience).

Women, Facebook and photo sharing

A recently published study claims that women who base their self worth on their appearance, tend to share more photos online and maintain larger networks on online social networking sites.
The study was performed by University at Buffalo researcher Michael A. Stefanone and was published in the journal Cyberpsychology, Behavior and Social Networking.

Stefanone says the results suggest that females identify more strongly with their image and appearance, and use Facebook as a platform to compete for attention. What's more, the women in this study who base their self worth on appearance were also are the most prolific photo sharers. His remarks on these findings:

"[I]t is disappointing to me that in the year 2011 so many young women continue to assert their self worth via their physical appearance -- in this case, by posting photos of themselves on Facebook as a form of advertisement. Perhaps this reflects the distorted value pegged to women's looks throughout the popular culture and in reality programming from 'The Bachelor' to 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians'."

Women and their social media habits: connections, entertainment, buying decisions?

From Online Communities Are a Winner for Women @ emarketer.com

On social media sites, women like to
  • keep up with friends and family
  • get entertained
  • share information
  • give advice

Women appear to be compartmentalizing their social media habits on different types of sites.

Compared to social media, the respondents of a 2010 BlogHer and IVillage study shows that women see niche online communities as more trustworthy. Hence the bigger role of niche online communities in finding and sharing information about products/services and in the buying decision process.
