Readers Digest Trusted Brands Survey 2011 An overview

About the survey


Readers Digest European Trusted Brands is now in its 11th year, it was first published in 2001. Fieldwork for this study, one of Europes broadest consumer surveys, is conducted annually and the results are available (free of charge) @ www.rdtrustedbrands.com In order to allow for tracking over time every effort is made to retain consistency in methodology, content and presentation of data. Research was conducted in 14 languages across 16 European countries. Croatia and Slovenia joined the ETB group this year previously they had conducted the survey independently. UK and Spain did not participate this time. The primary focus of the study is to find out which brands Europeans trust the most. 20 brand specific categories are common to every country. In addition to the 20 common categories each country had the option to include categories of their own choice (known as Local Categories). All brand questions are open ended giving the opportunity for any brand, however small or local, an equal chance of being nominated. This year 8 countries conducted their fieldwork on-line (see below). The remaining 8 distributed their questionnaires by post. In total 33,005 responses were analysed across the 16 countries. Sample selection and results were weighted with the aim of reflecting the broad population profile of each country where the survey was undertaken. Response from those aged <19yrs was low. We therefore excluded this group from our analysis to avoid over weighting and misrepresentation of brand preference.

33,000 participants across Europe

Each country had a target maximum number of responses, this varied according their needs. Germany had an especially high target to enable detailed analysis and comparison between East & West. Respondents in Germany represent 22% of the total sample. So, to fairly reflect the personalities and opinions of all respondents, each country was given an equal weight. Hence Average all countries for trust in institutions, professions etc. reflect the average of the average across all 16 countries. Data processing and tabulation for all countries (postal and on-line) was conducted by Wyman Dillon Ltd. who are based in the U.K. Across Europe over 126,000 different names were nominated by respondents as their most Trusted Brands. Within each category names were excluded if they were not true brand names. This applied especially to categories such as vitamins (e.g. apple) and breakfast cereal (e.g. muesli). Sometimes brands not applicable to the category were nominated e.g. Vodafone within the category of mobile phone. Where it was felt appropriate these have been included but would not be awarded winning brand status.

On-line:
Countries: Belgium, Czech, Finland, France, Hungary, Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Timing: October 2010 The sample selection criteria were identical to those employed for the postal survey. Given the large number of brand categories to be assessed (maximum 38); two matched parallel samples were drawn in each country, with each set of respondents being asked to consider just half of the categories. Only the brand categories were split between the 2 respondent bases. All other questions were common to both sample bases. Response rate by country varied massively from 17% in Hungary to 1% in France. Prize draw incentives were offered in every on-line country. In every country a pilot was undertaken before launching to the full sample. After the initial e-mail invitation to the full survey, only 2 countries required a reminder to be sent. The on-line questionnaire was designed and created centrally but translated locally. Fieldwork for 6 of the on-line countries was managed centrally by Framework Ltd. who also created the electronic questionnaire.

Readers Digest Trusted Brands Survey 2011 An overview

About the questions - postal


To begin, respondents were asked to indicate their degree of trust in 14 institutions including the euro and banks. They also indicated their level of trust in 20 professions ranging from football players to lawyers. A new section focussing on opinions about the European Union was added this year not all countries included this. Also new to the 2011 survey is a section on brand affinity. Respondents highlighted different adjectives which theyd most likely use to describe their own brand preferences. The 20 common product categories have remained the same for the past 6 years (since 2006). After nominating their most trusted brand in each category, respondents rated that brand in terms of Quality, Excellent Value, Strong Image and Understands customer needs. They also indicated if they were a customer/buyer of the brand theyd nominated and if they would recommend the brand to others.

18,000 on-line respondents

The on-line questionnaire:


Although the content of the on-line questionnaire was the same as for the postal survey the nature of the medium allows for more interaction. Categories were rotated and interspersed with questions about trust in professions, institutions and brand affinities.

European Trusted Brands 2011 How we award Trusted Brand status

In each country/category the Trusted Brand is the one receiving the highest number of nominations. It is a simple and transparent approach that is easy for everyone to understand and communicate. To be included in the published list of nominated brands a brand must achieve 10+ votes. Last year (2010) this was increased from 20 to allow for more brands to be identified and thus evaluated.

The qualitative data/attributes


After a respondent names their most Trusted Brand in each category, theyre asked to rate that brand on 4 criteria quality, excellent value, strong image, understand customer needs. Each has a maximum score of 5. The data reported for each brand consists of only the opinions of those respondents who voted for that brand not the sample as a whole. Attribute scores have only been calculated for brands with 20+ votes.

Attribute Awards
Its possible to be top scoring against any of the attributes but not be the No1 Trusted Brand in a category. This is because respondents who vote for a brand may recognise a particular area of strength in just one or two areas.

European Trusted Brands 2011 Guidelines for usage of Trusted Brands logo

1. Permission in principle is given for winning brands to use the Trusted Brand logo across their full range of marketing and advertising materials, including but not limited to: advertising campaigns promotional literature (flyers, brochures, point-ofpurchase materials, company newsletters, annual reports etc.) press releases websites product (labels, stickers, shipping cartons) 2. Winners may only use the logo in promotional materials within the countries where they were awarded Trusted Brand status. 3. Winners must use the logo only in relation to the relevant category of their award. 4. Winners may only use the logo for the year in which it was awarded, unless the award has been won in multiple years, in which case reference may be made to the multiple years for which the award was granted. The year is from 01 January to 31 December. 5. No alteration of the logo design or wording is permitted without specific permission. Ideally, the logo should be in either the specified blue, black, or white out of a background colour but where the colours used by a Trusted Brand in, for example advertising, or packaging do not allow use of Trusted Brands blue logo, the logo may be used in other colours to tie-in with the corporate colours of the Trusted Brand. Only the whole logo can be used. There should also be space around the logo, as a guide this should be no less than the width of two stars from the logo edge. 6. Winners may not use the logo in conjunction with specific reference to any competitor or competitive product. 7. Winners desiring to use the logo must submit relevant copy and/or materials to Readers Digest for authorisation in advance of use. Readers Digest agrees to respond promptly to all such requests, and reserves the right to deny any use at any time at our sole discretion. It is further understood that Readers Digest may not be held responsible in any way for any claims arising out of the use of the logo by winners. 8. No endorsement of the winning brand(s) by Readers Digest or its editors is given or may be implied.

Results - the Trusted Brands 20 common categories

20 brand categories are common to every country. Theyve remained unchanged for the past 6 years, with only minor amendments in the years prior to that. In addition to the common categories, each country had the option to include a range of categories of their own choice (known as Local Categories). The winning brand (in each country) is the one that receives the highest number of nominations in that country. There is no award for an overall winner across the 16 countries. The category questions are open ended giving respondents the freedom to nominate any brand of their choice in answer to the question: Tell us the brand you believe most deserves to be called your most trusted brand. This method gives all brands an equal chance of being nominated, regardless of whether or not they are locally or internationally known. The following table summarises the number of countries where a brand won the Trusted Brand award. Although the number of countries in 2011 is the same as in 2010 the actual countries are different. UK and Spain were replaced by Croatia and Slovenia. The summary for 2010 has therefore been recalculated to take account of this.

Most nominated brands across the common categories

Nivea and Nokia continue to dominate as Trusted Brand across most countries (15 out of 16) For the first time Yves Rocher has achieved most Trusted Brand status in Russia, overtaking Nivea as most Trusted Brand of skin care Only in France has a brand other than Nokia (Samsung) achieved Trusted Brand status in the mobile phone category In all countries apart from Croatia and Slovenia Visa is the most Trusted Brand of credit card. For the first time in 6 years Visa is No1 in Hungary HP has increased to 10 the number of countries where it is most trusted PC Nestl has increased from 4 to 7 the countries where its No1, due primarily to the inclusion of Slovenia and Croatia. In the Czech Republic it took over from Opavia

Nivea has increased the number of countries where it is the most Trusted Brand of hair care (from 1 to 5) No single brand dominates the category of mobile phone service provider. Orange and T-Mobile are No1 in 4 countries each Categories with the greatest number of different winners across participating countries are ISP, banks, holiday companies and petrol retailers. The majority of winners are local brands

Appendix vi Weighting factors applied in each country

Background
With the intention that the survey results will have maximum relevance to marketers, every attempt has been made to ensure that, as far as possible, they represent the views of the population in general rather than purely "Readers Digest readers". Not only will brand preferences vary but so will levels of trust in different professions and institutions. For these reasons weightings were applied to the respondents to bring them in line with the population by age + sex. STAGE 1: local identification of respondent names. Prior to mailing and e-mailing, each edition was advised to identify a sample of subscribers who, as far as possible, might represent the population profile by age and sex. STAGE 2: Respondents were classified according to their age and sex prior to comparison with the population profile. Weightings were then applied to each respondent according to whether their sex/age group was "over" or "under" represented v the population profile. As with ETB10 most countries had a significant under representation of younger people (15 19yrs) we therefore excluded them from analysis in all countries. With the aim of producing a weight of no more than 2 in every cell, age groups were collapsed" (grouped) together as far as was meaningful. The following tables show country by country the weights that were applied and the final age breaks that were achieved prior to analysing the results. The 8 on-line countries had a split sample (half the sample was asked to respond to 50% of the brand categories and the remaining half the other 50%). In every case the 2 samples were weighted independently e.g. Belgium 1 and Belgium 2. Some countries were unable to provide precise population profiles matching the needs of the survey. This is why, even though they may have received a high response within certain age groups, its not possible to weight them back to the population.
