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.
TV executives have to make informed content decisions that will ultimately generate revenue and achieve growth goals. Thanks to demand data, executive actions can be data-driven instead of based on hunches or assumptions. Demand data can offer insights on topics such as content valuation, subscriber acquisition, and retention, as well as help inform programming, distribution, and acquisition decisions.
Taking the show "Ahsoka" as an example, its demand data can be leveraged for decision-making. With 24.5 times the audience demand of the average TV show in the UK over the past 30 days, it's clear that the popularity of this show has increased significantly. The demand has spiked in late August, 2023. The performance of "Ahsoka" shows that it outperforms the average TV show in Canada, Australia, Germany, Hungary, France, Sweden, New Zealand, and the United States.
Demand data can also offer insights into the typical audience behaviour for a show, such as the other shows that fans of "Ahsoka" also like, including "The Mandalorian," or "The Witcher." Insights like this will help executives understand viewers’ behavioural patterns and preferences, which can inform programming decisions, including what to commission, what to buy, or what to produce.
Another use of demand data is in assessing the value of content for a particular platform or region. With the Parrot Analytics content valuation, executives can understand how much a series is worth, its ability to drive subscriptions, and how the title affects customer churn rates. In this way, content valuation can help the executives decide if a series adds enough value to justify its production or acquisition.
Finally, demand data is critical to understanding the trends in the industry and comparing the performance of a particular show against its peers. Using a rolling average analysis, it's possible to see how a program is performing such as the case of "Ahsoka," which has seen a 5.6% increase in popularity over 30 days. Executives can then leverage this data to identify industry trends and adjust their programming and acquisition strategies accordingly to stay competitive.
In conclusion, content decision-makers ought to leverage demand data to make informed decisions when it comes to programming, acquisition and distribution, and content valuation. By understanding the factors driving viewer preferences and decisions, executives can guide and optimise their content investment decisions, leading to better business outcomes.
