tuitele - one year of social tv in spain
DESCRIPTION
In May 2012 Tuitele introduced for the very first time in Spain the measurement of Social TV. A new way of watching and enjoying TV was emerging among Spanish viewers, whom are shifting gradually from being passive viewers to become active viewers, social viewers who watch TV with their smartphones and tablets in their hands, tweeting and posting about a TV show whilst watching it, looking for other viewers’ comments, visiting the show’s profile on a social network or an advertiser’s web site. TV ratings and Social TV analytics do not measure the same things; people meters measure how many viewers are watching a given show, whilst Social TV analytics measure what part of those viewers interact with the TV show through social networks, analysing their engagement, opinions and feelings about the TV show. Because of that, the relationship between TV ratings and Social TV analytics depends on the show, its genre, target, topics, etc. Through Social TV analytics, Tuitele brings to TV networks and producers, agencies and advertisers a new way to analyse TV audience. Since the birth of Tuitele, close to 4 million Spaniards have tweeted about a TV show while on air. Social TV in Spain has experienced an outstanding growth, from 600,000 social viewers in September 2012 to 1.5 million in June 2013. With this report, we aim to show the current picture of Social TV in Spain through the analysis of the first complete TV season with Social TV analytics available, both about TV shows and TV advertising.TRANSCRIPT

WHAT’S NEW ABOUT SOCIAL TV ANALYTICS?
In May 2012 Tuitele introduced for the very first time in Spain the measurement of Social TV. A new way of watching and enjoying TV was emerging among Spanish viewers, whom are shifting gradually from being passive viewers to become active viewers, social viewers who watch TV with their smartphones and tablets in their hands, tweeting and posting about a TV show whilst watching it, looking for other viewers’ comments, visiting the show’s profile on a social network or an advertiser’s web site.
TV ratings and Social TV analytics do not measure the same things; people meters measure how many viewers are watching a given show, whilst Social TV analytics measure what part of those viewers interact with the TV show through social networks, analysing their engagement, opinions and feelings about the TV show. Because of that, the relationship between TV ratings and Social TV analytics depends on the show, its genre, target, topics, etc.
Through Social TV analytics, Tuitele brings to TV networks and producers, agencies and advertisers a new way to analyse TV audience. Since the birth of Tuitele, close to 4 million Spaniards have tweeted about a TV show while on air. Social TV in Spain has experienced an outstanding growth, from 600,000 social viewers in September 2012 to 1.5 million in June 2013.
With this report, we aim to show the current picture of Social TV in Spain through the analysis of the first complete TV season with Social TV analytics available, both about TV shows and TV advertising.

The analysis of the content of thousands of comments about TV shows allows us to know instantly the interest, impact and level of satisfaction that TV contents generate among the TV audience. What hosts, contestants, guests, sections or topics like and dislike, provoke feelings, disappoint or bore. At Tuitele we have developed a proprietary algorithm that allows us to analyse in real time the sentiment within Social TV comments, beyond the classical positive, neutral and negative approach, unveiling feelings such as joy, disappointment, criticism or admiration that TV shows generate among viewers.

Sometimes, social viewers comment the show during the commercial break, while other times they don’t. The fact is that there might be a larger or lower volume of comments during commercial breaks depending on what happened on the show just before the break and, most of it, depending on the genre, format or contents of the TV show.
The finale of the first season of “La Voz” (December 19 2012) in Telecinco shows a clear pattern of conversation associated with the live broadcasting of the show. As it is seen in the image below, comments about the show increase at the start of the show and decrease during commercial breaks. TV viewers comment what’s going on the show while they are watching the show.
This TV show is a great example of how TV contents generate conversation far beyond contents and broadcasting. In this case (November 11 2012), comments about the show increase during the commercial break, being a time for opinions and debate around the topic treated on the show earlier. The TV audience is pushed to share their opinions about the content of the show and the topics it presents.

3.3. SOCIAL TV ANALYTICS TO MEASURE ADVERTISING EFFECTIVENESS
Social TV analytics, that is to say, comments posted by viewers in social networks about the TV shows they are watching also include the presence of advertisers. Spots, TV promotions or any other advertising action on TV lead viewers to share their comments.
In that context, Social TV analytics applied to TV advertising appears as a new approach to analyse advertising effectiveness, both in a quantitatively and qualitatively way.

TV AND TWITTER INTEGRATIONVOLKSWAGEN GOLF GTI
22
In this case study, Tuitele analysed the TV campaign of the new Volkswagen Golf GTI. In addition to the spots aired on TV, which included the hashtag #mitoGTI on screen to spread conversation, the brand also bought several promoted tweets during the broadcasting of different TV shows.
In the first place, it is seen how those spots aired within shows with high social audience, such as Roland Garros, Formula 1 or “Cuarto Milenio”, maximize the number of conversations about the ad and also about the brand.
Infographic “Spots Integration / Hour Analysis June 9 2013”
In the second place, considering the average number of comments per hour about Volkswagen Golf as a measure of effectiveness, it is seen that without ads aired on TV the result is an average of 4.7 comments per hour. This figure doubles when the spot is aired on a low social audience show. Airing spots on medium social audience shows multiplies conversations by 4.4 and with the case of high social audience shows gets 5 times more comments.
With the integration of TV spots and promoted tweets, conversations about the brand multiply by 41 in the case of integration with medium social audience and high affinity shows (which is the case of Motorbikes Championship), or by 29 in the case of airing ad on a high social audience show.
Infographic “ VW Golf Buzz / Average per Hour June 8 to 24 2013”
En general, por cada Grp se obtienen tres comentarios sobre la publicidad de Volkswagen Golf y seis sobre Volkswagen Golf sin discriminar si son o no publicitarias.
Generally speaking, for each GRP, 3 tweets about VW Golf’s ad and 6 about VW Golf are obtained. The highest performance is obtained in the case of spot’s airings on shows with high social audience and high affinity, when ad’s conversations multiplied by 14.

THE IMPACT OF ADVERTISINGOVER THE BRANDS SENTIMENT SPONSORSHIPS AT THE CONFEDERATIONS CUP 2013
24
During the second half of June 2013, some of the Spanish football national team and the Confederations Cup 2013 sponsors focused part of their commercial communication on this event through different actions. These advertisers linked their brands to football, the Spanish national team or the championship, and as it is seen in our analysis this association generated a direct and significant impact over the sentiment and perception that consumers had on these brands.
In the first place, comments about the sponsors and football obtained their highest volume during Spain’s matches. Besides the final, the Spain vs. Tahiti match, in which Hyundai held a communication action, was the match with the highest volume of conversations around sponsors. However, Cruzcampo was the brand with the best performance during the whole championship thanks to its communication strategy that combined TV and Twitter.
Infographic “Comments about Sponsors Associated with Football / June 15 to 30 2013”
In terms of impact over the brands sentiment, Twitter users positively rated communication actions associated with the event, as in almost all cases the ratio of positive comments for every negative one was clearly higher compared to non-advertising brand conversations. Adidas and Sony’s cases are remarkable, but in the case of Movistar, its #nosolojugamosbienalfutbol campaign almost multiplied by five this indicator.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR SOCIAL TV IN SPAIN?

26
There is no doubt that in the last 12 months we have witnessed the great irruption of Social TV in Spain. Real-time social conversations by TV viewers are now part of live TV contents, especially for talent and reality shows. Networks are not just fighting for ratings but for social share, which has become the key variable to show engagement between TV audience and contents. TV viewers love to take part into their entertainment creation process, that is why TV networks make this participation easier and fight for social share through the spread of hashtags and the design of second screen apps, which allows viewers to obtain additional information and contents.
It is now clear that TV networks take the highest benefit from this new way of watching and producing television, but we must not forget that in a commercial TV environment, advertisers play a key role, sustaining this environment with their investment. In this context, we might think that a highly engaged TV audience might pay less attention to advertising, but this is not the case. Beyond branded content and sponsorships in highly engaged TV shows where brands take advantage of this engagement, conventional spots get viewers attention if same recipe is applied, that is to say, advertisers give consumers an easy way to say what they think about a brand and its advertising. Today this way is the use of hashtags in TV communication, integrating the TV strategy with actions in social networks, especially in Twitter.

This is how, in the upcoming months, we will see a massive use of hashtags in brands communication. Currently, agencies and advertisers are increasingly using Social TV real-time data to make decisions and measure the effectiveness of their commercial communication.
Also, the year 2014 is likely to witness Facebook becoming the relevant player that is meant to be in the Social TV environment, capturing some of the advertising business that Twitter is starting to generate. Last but not least, we should not forget connected TV, which is already here. Smart TVs are growing in number at Spanish households and TV networks are already launching their services, such is the case of RTVE’s “Botón Rojo”, which with no doubt will be followed by many other.
