The first and fundamental question that demand data can answer for you is content valuation. With the Parrot Analytics content valuation system, you can have an economic valuation system for your content powered by global content demand and supply. Using demand data, you can quantify the platform-specific marginal revenue contribution and evaluate a title's ability to drive engagement across the rest of the catalog. Thus, Parrot Analytics' demand data will enable you to calculate the ROI for specific titles, assess a TV series' potential to acquire subscribers and mitigate churn. Similarly, demand quantifies taste clusters, uncovers under-monetized titles, and empowers discovery of niche markets, effectively supporting content acquisition and investing decisions.

In the case of "Doc McStuffins," applying content valuation strategies through demand data can help assess the popularity of the show in Canada, which is 3.1 times the audience demand of the average show, revealing its significant value to any platform.

Demand data can help you discover your audience, which is a valuable aspect of content acquisition, programming, and distribution decisions. For instance, by analyzing the show's audience profile and related fanbases, the Parrot Analytics platform generated a list of other shows most watched by viewers of "Doc McStuffins" such as "Tangled: The Series", "Vampirina", "Pokémon", among others. Identifying these related shows that attract the same viewers could inform decisions concerning content acquisition, programming, franchise development, promotion and distribution strategies.

Demand data can also help with distribution decisions. In terms of travelability, "Doc McStuffins" has good international demand, indicating opportunities for distribution expansion in other regions. Understanding the demand in the show's country of origin, the United States, provides a baseline to assess the show's performance in other countries, making distribution decisions based on audience preferences. Finally, the reach of "Doc McStuffins" in the leading countries can help identify best-performing regions, reinforcing efforts to expand distribution and to promote audience engagement.

To Sum it up, generating insights from demand data can help you make informed content decisions concerning content valuation, programming, acquisition, distribution, and marketing strategies, among others.
