Dear colleagues,
                                             Although it’s been challenging, at the close of 2010 we can look back and say with
                                             confidence that it’s been a very strong year for Mindshare. Our business has
                                             progressed in so many ways and I’m very proud to be able to say that our offering
                                             now is far stronger than it was at the start of the year.
                                             Our approach has been to listen to our clients and to understand the pressures they
                                             are under and therefore exactly what they need from their media partner. This has
                                             meant moving far beyond our traditional remit of media planning and buying and
                                             expanding our offering to create a real 21st century media company.
                                             However, we must do this while still delivering excellence in our main business of
                                             media planning and buying. This is underpinned by exceptional client service and
                                             continued investment in this area whether through resource, systems or procedures is
                                             central to our success.
    Our approach to trading – The Exchange - within Mindshare is a key point of difference. We were the first agency to identify
    the trading similarities between TV and Digital and we remain the only agency who trades these two crucial media within the
    same team. We firmly believe this is the right solution as we move away from a TV only discussion and towards an Audio
    Visual approach where content is increasingly viewed on a number of different screens. Trading in this way also takes the
    disciplines and procedures on TV, which have been perfected over many years, and transfers them seamlessly to Digital
    making it a much more efficient medium for our clients to engage with.
    Consumer Insight has been at the heart of this. The central idea has been to get much deeper under the skin of consumers
    and find the insights that will really help our clients’ businesses gain competitive advantages. In particular, our partnership
    with Sponge It has helped deliver this and has really given us an edge versus our competitive set. Whether with existing clients
    or in winning new business, research, and the consumer insights that it brings, has been crucial to the success that we have
    had.
    The other key area of investment for Mindshare has been in Digital. Our key point of difference versus our competition in
    relation to Digital is that we passionately believe in and practice integration. Digital media is not consumed in a vacuum and
    therefore there is no justification for treating it differently to any other medium. This is the mistake that all of our competitors
    have made.
    The real learnings for us have not come from the way in which people consume digital media per se, but from the way in
    which digital media consumption is influenced and driven by traditional media and vice versa.
    We have made significant investments in people and systems in Digital but the fact that they sit at the heart of our business
    and that every planner is as well versed in Digital as they are in TV or Radio is the real key to our success.
    The real strength of Mindshare however is in our client list and that’s the thing that I am most proud of. It’s the strongest
    possible testament to the strength of our offering.
    Thank you very much for the business throughout 2010 and we look forward to a mutually prosperous 2011.

  • 3. Dear colleagues, Although it’s been challenging, at the close of 2010 we can look back and say with confidence that it’s been a very strong year for Mindshare. Our business has progressed in so many ways and I’m very proud to be able to say that our offering now is far stronger than it was at the start of the year. Our approach has been to listen to our clients and to understand the pressures they are under and therefore exactly what they need from their media partner. This has meant moving far beyond our traditional remit of media planning and buying and expanding our offering to create a real 21st century media company. However, we must do this while still delivering excellence in our main business of media planning and buying. This is underpinned by exceptional client service and continued investment in this area whether through resource, systems or procedures is central to our success. Our approach to trading – The Exchange - within Mindshare is a key point of difference. We were the first agency to identify the trading similarities between TV and Digital and we remain the only agency who trades these two crucial media within the same team. We firmly believe this is the right solution as we move away from a TV only discussion and towards an Audio Visual approach where content is increasingly viewed on a number of different screens. Trading in this way also takes the disciplines and procedures on TV, which have been perfected over many years, and transfers them seamlessly to Digital making it a much more efficient medium for our clients to engage with. Consumer Insight has been at the heart of this. The central idea has been to get much deeper under the skin of consumers and find the insights that will really help our clients’ businesses gain competitive advantages. In particular, our partnership with Sponge It has helped deliver this and has really given us an edge versus our competitive set. Whether with existing clients or in winning new business, research, and the consumer insights that it brings, has been crucial to the success that we have had. The other key area of investment for Mindshare has been in Digital. Our key point of difference versus our competition in relation to Digital is that we passionately believe in and practice integration. Digital media is not consumed in a vacuum and therefore there is no justification for treating it differently to any other medium. This is the mistake that all of our competitors have made. The real learnings for us have not come from the way in which people consume digital media per se, but from the way in which digital media consumption is influenced and driven by traditional media and vice versa. We have made significant investments in people and systems in Digital but the fact that they sit at the heart of our business and that every planner is as well versed in Digital as they are in TV or Radio is the real key to our success. The real strength of Mindshare however is in our client list and that’s the thing that I am most proud of. It’s the strongest possible testament to the strength of our offering. Thank you very much for the business throughout 2010 and we look forward to a mutually prosperous 2011. Bill Kinlay !
  • 4. M 10 x 10 CONSUMER AND BRAND RELATIONSHIP: It’s a cliché, but consumers are reacting by subjecting brands and organisations to the sort of scrutiny that they were never exposed to during the Celtic Tiger years. Whilst people are understandably gloomy about the future, they are now fully empowered to seek out bargains and reductions from everyone they deal with. One-fifth of the population used to be Bargain Hunters, however it’s now ubiquitous. On average, brands used to sell 20-30 percent on special deal – now we’re seeing a huge range of brands selling over 75 percent of product on special deal; everything is included, from beer to yoghurt to cereals. Not every brand is going to survive this environment, and even some of those that do may be unrecognisable from the original entity. Consumers will also continue to be attracted to brands that offer a value-infused quality experience. It’s not going to be just about chopping prices. Marks SURVIV OFTHEFITTEST AL & Spencer for one is having a great recession in Ireland. Yes, their prices are lower than they used to be, but they can still command a price premium as they offer reasonably priced indulgence.

  • 8. M 10 x 10 HOW TO APPROACH THE MARKET Whilst we won’t go into specific trading tactics here, as they are bespoke to every client, there are several truisms that will remain relevant in 2011. There is no more money; any media owner expecting organic growth is dreaming. There is more media available than ever before; digital growth has not seen budgets organically rise but rather a shift of budget from traditional media. There is more TV minutage from TV3 and more channels in general. The contraction in media budgets mean that in every media, supply outweighs demand. All media owners will be fighting for share of media channel and share of media owner within these channels. PLAYINGTHEMARKET Media trading in 2011 MEDIA LANDSCAPE In 2010 the doom mongers were proved largely right Nick Slaymaker, Head of the Exchange when the market contracted by around ten percent. outlines the key trading areas which Mindshare are prepared to manage in 2011 Within this, TV, display and search fared rather better being up 2%, 18%, and 50% respectively showing that all parts of the market do not move in the same direction. On top of this, the lack of live data by media channel and media owner makes it harder to take the pulse of the market in real-time. This makes scale even more important than ever before, not only does it provide greater leverage, as overall volume declines, it allows a greater sense of the true size of the market, due to the amount of data it provides. Mindshare, as the largest trader within GroupM (which accounts for 30% of the market), is uniquely positioned, to identify and exploit opportunities.

  • 10. M 10 x 10 impact everything from marketing to retail, from publishing to travel, from politics to finance. So, what will be the stories of 2011? We think there will be five that marketers in Ireland will need to be aware of, and prepared for. SEARCH Google is still the place where most people begin their web-journeys: whether it’s to type in a URL instead of using a browser, to find quickly a useless piece of trivia or the best deal for a mortgage, Google is the web as far as many people are concerned. This is unlikely to change in 2011, but it will continue to evolve: the launch of the Microsoft/Yahoo alliance may finally bring some much needed competition to a dangerously monopolised sector, whilst the continued rise of social media, in all its forms, means that brands will need to think about how they optimise a lot more than just the words on their IRELANDISCONNECTED homepage. SOCIAL: If 2010 belonged to anyone, it was Facebook. From Digital at the core of planning The year of mobile, hitting 600 million global users (a rise of 100% YOY) the year of social, to garnering Golden Globe nominations for the movie Our Head of Digital, Ciarán Norris takes a made about founder Mark Zuckerberg (they could the year of location, look at key areas which will have a major impact on digital marketing in 2011. probably have done without that), they were the year of Twitter everywhere. 2011 is likely to see them hit the magic one billion in terms of members, several times that in terms of advertising dollars earned, and also see It seems that digital marketers are never happier than them become as ubiquitous as Google.
