COMPLEXITY OF NUMBERS
Journalists should understand that their audiences’ high-minded desires don’t
always align with the choices they make - in part because those choices are
nudged by algorithms and popularityJames G. Webster

REFLECTION
NEWS NEEDS OF THE AUDIENCE
It’s not just about being digital-first, it’s about being
audience firstRenee Kaplan, Financial Times
This was then
This is now
What does the audience need?
Not people, but needs
Time and place determine
Selection is needed
Talk with friends, family and colleagues
Relevance
Trustworthiness
Habits and comfort
Serve by selection
Individual focus
Tailor made
Practical
Control and personal choice
Use, not possess
Short, factual information
Serve with service (ADAPAT)
Think for yourself: what’s true?
Critical towards classic institutions
Search and compare multiple sources
UGC is also a source
Co creation and wisdom of the crowd
Appreciation for / interest in the process
Transparancy
Serve by guiding
An involved experience
Storytelling
New forms for old ideas
Beautification
Interaction for involvement
Positive and constructive
Experience together
Looking for authenticity
Serve by telling stories
Individual needs and choices

PEOPLE COME FIRST!
(RE-)DEFINE YOUR OBJECTIVES
What do you want to know?
Ask the right questions
Define the essence of your being
Metrics should reflect what a company cares about
Buzzfeed
Define what you NEED
Series that 80% of people like are less valuable than
ones that 30% of people loveNetflix
A cross-platform, global network for news and entertainment that
generates 6 billion views per month. BuzzFeed creates and distributes content for a global audience and utilizes proprietary technology to
continuously test, learn and optimize
Wants to show the deeper structures and developments behind news. Our articles will help the audience obtain
new insights in how the world works. We want to redefine the definition of news: from that what obtains most attention
to that what brings most insights.
Is a different kind of place to read and write on the internet. A place where the
measure of success isn’t views, but viewpoints. Where the quality of the idea matters, not the author’s qualifications.
A place where conversations pushes ideas forward and words still matter.
EXERCISE
Define possible objectives for a news organization or
news format - be as specific as possible (KPI’s)

When unique browsers met real people - combining
quantitative & qualitative audience insight in service
design Riikka Lätti for EBU Masterclass on audiences, 21.3.2016
What we aimed forWe wanted to learn more from our user (and non-user) segments:
How are our audiences
consuming online news?
How would the ideal news service look like for them?
Could we be able to build it for them?
How could we maintain an even closer relationship with
our audiences in service design – and make it as fuss-
free as possible?

What we did in 2015

Live testing
Collaborative design/test days
Flash interviews & iterative development process
Flash interviews
Presenting the results: comments on a print-out of the site
Making necessary changes to the layout

Ethnography
Why are they using our site the way they
are?
All online audiences 3 segments 5 user personas
Who are “they”?How do they actually use our site?

3 user segments were a finding from our on-site survey
Lena (48), consultant/family mum
Eetu (22), student, living alone
Seppo (59), engineer
Jenni (35), social worker, on maternity leave
Joonas (29), service manager, athlete
5 user personas were created to represent the user segments of the news frontpage
5 different usage patterns and user needs5 different lifestages and user contexts
User personas
Life-size cardboard figures àpersonas are physically present and reminding who the news service is designed for
Based on the findings from the ethnography, each persona has a lifestory that tells about his/her news use preferences, media day and relationship to Yle.
Collaborative design/test days4 hour-long, intensive test days with 2 people from the same audience segment.
How would the news frontpage look like if it was customized for those very specific users?
Different projective tasks, live sketching of the frontpage with printouts, evaluation of different layouts & fully customized news frontpage layout for the user
Examples of frontpage layouts
Main ingredients for success
1. Make sure the whole team is involved in the process!
2. Combine quantitative & qualitative know-how!
3. Make sure the results translate into concrete actions!
4. Always aim for lean service development & fast testing phase!

THE ROLE OF RESEARCH
Meet real people
Better understanding of the WHY behind data
Greater awareness of your presumptions
We give knowledge about reach and appreciation of the NOS
& we deliver insights to make sure the NOS still exists in 5 or
10 years
Actions
What I need & what I want
PSB
CULTURE
Good analytics is at least as much about organization and culture as it is about
tools and technologyReuters
What one person can do
If journalists do not engage, the development of data, metrics and
analytics will continue to be entirely shaped by advertising, commercial
and technological priorities, with little consideration of editorial priorities
Reuters
REPORTING
TO SUM UP….
Ask the right questions Choose the right method
Tell your story
EXERCISE
Describe the most perfect research department ever
(resources: unlimited)
DEVELOP THE FORMULA
There is not one best way to do analytics, just as there is no one ‘god metric’ for journalism
