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 entertainment executives, analyzing demand data can aid you in making more informed acquisition, distribution, programming, and content decisions. You can do this in a variety of ways, for example, by leveraging Parrot Analytics demand data, you can answer questions like:
- Content valuation: How can you determine how much to spend on content? Parrot Analytics content valuation system is based on demand data and reveals the dollar value contribution of any title, to any platform, in any region. The demand data can be used to assess a TV series' ability to drive subscriptions and mitigate churn - for example, "The Crowded Room" in Canada achieved 12.5 times the audience demand of the average show in Canada over the last 30 days. Content valuation helps in determining the ROI of a specific title for any given platform.
- Acquiring or Producing Content: With data insights, entertainment executives can tell which type(s) of content exhibit opportunities to acquire or produce. Parrot Analytics’ demand data helps executives target the right audience and make decisions. For example, "The Crowded Room" managed to spike demand in late August 2023 in Canada, and with an outstanding demand in the country, it could be a good fit for an acquisition or even a production for Canada.
- Competitive Benchmarking & Travelability: Parrot Analytics’ demand data can be used to benchmark against other titles available on the market and to determine how well it would suit other countries or markets. For instance, "The Crowded Room" outperforms the demand of the average TV show in the top ten global markets where it’s most in-demand. The show has exceptional global demand, along with exceptional travelability, making it a good fit for many other markets outside its region.
- Subscriber Retention and Acquisition: Entertainment executives can analyze the demand data to determine which titles would retain or attract new subscribers. By finding out what genres are resonating with the audience better, you could optimize a marketing campaign, measure its effectiveness, and determine whether it is part of the cultural zeitgeist - "The Crowded Room" has exceptional momentum, so it would be useful to keep an eye on how it sustains its demand.
- Programming decision-making: Another way to use demand data is to inform scalable concept testing and value content by determining what’s the baseline cost of a title - "The Crowded Room" has higher demand than 99.8% of all biography titles in Canada, making it useful for decision-making for biography-focused programming. You can also leverage demand data to make programming decisions such as choosing what type of content to produce or acquire which resonates well with audiences - "The Crowded Room" fans also like "Justified: City Primeval", "Warrior", and "The Witcher," which could provide ideas for complementary programming.
Overall, using Parrot Analytics' demand data, entertainment executives can base their decision-making process on key factors such as content valuation, franchiseability, momentum, reach, as well as regional-specific audience demand data, which increases their chances of making successful decisions. By analyzing shows like "The Crowded Room," with outstanding audience demand, exceptional travelability, and momentum, entertainment executives can pinpoint how it fares against competitors, audience demographics, or even what time frame would be best to release new content for optimal viewership.
