		<description><![CDATA[Green and socially responsible marketing will continue to be a big part of the conversation in 2012.

		<description><![CDATA[This has been a peculiar winter in New England—on Saturday it was 59 degrees. Despite the unseasonably warm weather, all I wanted to do was stay close to home, make soup and look into what sort of marathon television opportunity Bravo had on offer. My own behavior in large part mirrors what Best Buy validated via an innovative research program in their Communispace community—seasonality in retail is largely about behavior and not about weather, location or calendar anchors. Customer behavior should then drive the retail calendar of marketing plans and offers.<a class="more_link" href="http://blog.communispace.com/align/retail-seasonality-about-consumer-behavior/">MORE&#8230;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In 2012, according to Greenbook Research Industry Trends’ Fall 2011 Report, Market Research Online Communities (or MROCs) will see “massive” adoption by research buyers. As traditional sources of insight (focus groups, consumer panels) suffer problems with recruiting, attrition, decreased relevance, and respondent fatigue, more brands are turning to market research online communities to build more intimate relationship with consumers.

		<description><![CDATA[It is predicted by IBIS World that revenue to Australian online retailers is expected to increase to $10 billion over the next 5 years. Currently, online retailing makes up about 5-6% of total sales in Australia, compared to about 12 percent in the US. This trend drove the <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/business/internet-drives-rise-in-parcel-volumes-at-australia-post-20111010-1lhke.html" target="_blank">recent news</a> that Australia Post is planning major changes to its service to support this growing demand including 24 hour pick-up lockers, international product tracking and an increased focus on small to medium businesses.<a class="more_link" href="http://blog.communispace.com/align/online-retail-growing-in-australia/">MORE&#8230;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In our latest webinar today I presented some examples of how consumer and shopper insights are driving growth for retailers and brands such as Walmart, GlaxoSmithKline and Kraft. These organizations are realizing the power of insights to build better relationships with retail partners, build new knowledge of the shopper’s mindset and attitudes, and improve in-store marketing communications.

You then go on to dutifully create banner points of that demographic information to analyze the results against… but never actually use it in a meaningful way.

		<description><![CDATA[I’m the first to admit that I have a texting problem. But it’s comforting to know that I’m not alone. According to the <a href="http://pewinternet.org/Reports/2011/Cell-Phone-Texting-2011/Main-Report/How-Americans-Use-Text-Messaging.aspx" target="_blank">Pew Research Center</a>, the typical texter sends or receives about 42 text messages per day, which is about 1,260 text messages per month. I wasn’t fully aware of my textual behavior until a recent visit with my not-so-cellphone-savvy grandmother. <a class="more_link" href="http://blog.communispace.com/connect/the-art-of-word-choice-in-our-digital-and-mobile-lives/">MORE&#8230;</a>]]></description>
