Methodology
All Global TGI studies follow standardised guidelines and formats, but with the flexibility to fully reflect local market needs and characteristics. Accordingly some of the methodologies differ slightly to accommodate local requirements.
-
In most countries some information is collected face-to-face, with a self-completion questionnaire subsequently left with respondents. However increasingly online is being offered as an option for respondents.
-
Most surveys have an annual release with many providing options for either quarterly or 6 monthly updates.
-
Many countries sample individuals from age 15+, however some countries provide information on 10+ or 12+
-
Sample sizes vary across countries with the largest being 93,000 in China through to 1,400 in Bahrain. The mean average sample size is almost 12,000 across the Global TGI surveys. For individual country samples please select the country from our network. All TGI data are weighted to match known demographic profiles, and our media measures either constitute national media currency themselves, or are reweighted to match the accepted currency.
-
Generally, fieldwork is either continuous or conducted in a couple of waves across the year.
For further information on specific country methodologies please contact us.

Survey Coverage
Coverage of products and services, demographics, media and attitudes
Each country's TGI survey can provide you with information on all the following aspects of people's lives:
Consumption of products and services
The typical TGI survey covers 18 broad product / service areas taking in the full range of consumer products and services and providing data on some 4000 brands in over 500 product fields. The sectors covered include:
-
Food
-
Sweet & Salty Snacks
-
Alcoholic Drinks
-
Non-Alcoholic Drinks
-
Household Products
-
Toiletries & Cosmetics
-
Pharmaceutical & Chemists Products
-
Tobacco Products
-
Pets & Pet Food

-
Electronics & Other Personal Items
-
Communications & Internet
-
Financial Services
-
Holidays & Travel
-
Sports & Leisure
-
Motoring
Demographics
Any variable or combination of variables measured by TGI can be analysed and profiled in terms of demographics. This includes full information on age, sex, income, working status, marital status, education, household characteristics and much more.
Because TGI is a single-source planning tool, any of the product, brand, demographic and attitudinal information can be directly analysed against the extensive media consumption data collected from the same respondents, allowing subscribers to identify media and marketing opportunities. Media usage information is detailed and includes:
-
Press
-
TV (including Satellite, Cable & Digital)
-
Radio
-
Cinema
-
Outdoor
-
Internet
Attitudes and beliefs
Beyond standard demographics, there is a further, and arguably much more powerful dimension that conditions an individual's responses and behavioural patterns. Information on attitudes can be an immensely powerful market segmentation tool.
You can access a wide range of attitudinal data on TGI. The questionnaire typically carries around 250 statements which are specifically designed to measure the values and opinions held by respondents. These statements cover attitudes to health, holidays, the environment, drink, finance and many other areas. The list of statements measured is reviewed regularly to ensure the statements are still relevant, appropriate and effective for segmentation purposes.
The resulting information provides a unique, qualitative perspective to quantitative research data. Correctly used, attitudinal information can discriminate far more powerfully between target audiences than demographic definitions alone. TGI offers you the chance to:
-
Break away from standard market definitions
-
Combine product and brand usage data with attitudinal information, to achieve new definitions of your audiences
-
Match attitudinal types with media consumption for new perspectives on planning and buying

How is TGI Used?
TGI was first started in Great Britain in 1969 to provide the advertising and media industries with a means of describing target groups for the broad spectrum of consumer goods and services. Importantly it also allows the identification of potential strategies for communicating with these audiences. Today, TGI is used more widely than ever to assist the understanding of target markets and to aid marketing and advertising decisions. Users are then able to optimise their marketing and advertising receipts and expenditures. And all this in more than 60 countries around the world.
By accessing TGI data, our clients have extremely valuable information at their fingertips for all their marketing analysis and planning, whenever they need it. Whatever the priority: whether it is consumer profiling, market segmentation, targeting, re-positioning, market entry, product development, brand insight, cross- promotions, media planning... TGI can provide you with the full 360 degree view of consumers.
Research from Kantar Media’s Global TGI Net reveals how attitudes to user-generated content differ around the world
The apparent ubiquity of social networking raises questions about the relevance of traditional news providers. Even the most nimble publisher struggles to keep up with ‘citizen journalists’ on the ground, who can Tweet updates as they happen.
As newspaper publishers enter a new era, Kantar Media’s Global TGI believes newspapers have a key role to play in this changing landscape, but recognises that business models need to change to incorporate direct audience interaction. Recent research
Posted on April 23rd 2012
Kantar Media is delighted to announce a further expansion in its Global TGI network of syndicated single-source studies with TNS Media, Belgium and their Brand Media Monitor (BMM) study. This brings the number of studies now included in the Global TGI network worldwide to 68.
The TGI studies measure consumers’ product and brand consumption, attitudes and media usage. They are used worldwide by brand owners, agencies and media for a range of strategic and tactical purposes. These include consumer profiling, brand positioning, the development of marketing plans, the identification of target audiences, and media planning and buying.
