The Demand Distribution curve illustrates how a TV show’s popularity compares to the demand benchmark, which is a measure of the average demand across all titles. The curve is divided into performance buckets, ranging from “Below Average” to “Exceptional”. A show falls into one of these performance buckets depending on how many times more or less demand it has compared to the demand benchmark.
The show’s performance is market-specific, e.g. the same show can be in the “Average” range in the United States and in the “Good” range in France.
As an example, if a show has 9 times more demand than the demand benchmark, it falls in the “Outstanding” performance range; only 2.7% of all shows in the market reach this high level of demand.
As an entertainment executive, you are faced with numerous decision-making processes, including content creation, acquisition, distribution, and programming. The use of data-driven insights from demand data can provide you with valuable information to make informed decisions.
For example, let's examine the case of "Moon Knight," a TV show with a plot revolving around a former U.S. marine, struggling with dissociative identity disorder, who is granted the powers of an Egyptian moon god. By analyzing its demand data in Australia for March 2024, we can reveal insights to aid your decision-making process.
Firstly, content valuation can be used to determine how much this TV show is worth, and the dollar value contribution of "Moon Knight" to any platform in Australia can be calculated. In this case, "Moon Knight" demonstrates good demand, with 6.1 times the audience demand of the average TV show in Australia over the last 30 days. Therefore, investing in the production or acquisition of a TV series with higher demand levels may be more profitable, potentially making it worth more on the platform.
Demand data enables content creators, distributors, and network executives to make informed decisions about what to produce, acquire, or distribute. For instance, through audience analyses, entertainment executives can identify which content resonates with viewers, as the affinity analysis reveals which other TV shows fans of Moon Knight are watching, such as: "Loki," "House of the Dragon," and "The Mandalorian". Additionally, demand gives insight into the geographical spread of the show's popularity, which can aid in targeting audience-based campaigns. Furthermore, you can uncover audiences in underrepresented markets and focus on creating content that appeals to them.
Secondly, demand data can help programming executives with program scheduling decisions. Knowing that "Moon Knight" increased 276 spots in its rank in Australia during March indicates the effectiveness of the premiere marketing campaign, and the show's release can be optimized for success through information gleaned from data analysis. Additionally, understanding that Australia experienced a demand spike in late March 2024 provides the opportunity to capitalize on the trend, by exploring opportunities to re-promote or make episodes available to capitalize on subsequent demand.
Finally, understanding the reach of a show provides information on how effectively it is targeting new and existing subscribers, and offers insights on how to grow your platform's audience. Demand data also makes it possible to quantify the ROI for any specific title with the potential to drive subscriptions and lessen churn. As per the demand for "Moon Knight," it achieved the peak rank of #375 in Australia, further indicating its strength in the country.
In conclusion, the demand data for "Moon Knight" in Australia demonstrates it to be a valuable asset for any platform. The Parrot Analytics' content valuation system, powered by demand data, can assist in identifying the economic valuation of the show. By leveraging demand data, entertainment executives can make informed decisions regarding which content to produce, acquire, distribute, or program. Demand data can highlight audience preferences, platform fit, and engagement trends that executives can leverage to optimize content strategy, increase demand, and ultimately grow their business.
