PRIZMCE links your customer data with neighbourhood demographics, syndicated survey data and marketing research. It reveals what types of consumers are most likely to use your product or service, and it highlights which similar segments will form a target group to produce the greatest marketing efficiency and reach. Any customer file, list or survey can be coded with PRIZMCE data. If you don’t have a customer database, Environics Analytics can create a surrogate customer profile for you from our storehouse of syndicated consumer surveys and marketing data. WHAT are they like? Once you have identified and defined your consumer targets, you can use PRIZMCE to generate a thorough profile that describes their predominant lifestyle, hobbies, product and usage patterns, attitudes and beliefs. You can also find out how your targets don’t spend their time and money so you can avoid making costly and ineffective marketing decisions. WHAT do they buy? PRIZMCE provides important insight on sales potential within your markets through its ability to predict purchasing preferences across all types of industries. You can zero in on the usage patterns for any type of product, service, brand or category – from the local market to the national level. PRIZMCE can also provide valuable insights into your competitors’ market share. WHERE can I find them? PRIZMCE works at all levels of geography, which means that you can discover where your current customers or prospects live and locate more people like them – anywhere in Canada and, through a partnership with San Diego-based Claritas, anywhere in North America. Accurate geographic information is essential to effective site selection, product distribution, media planning, resource allocation and many more marketing applications. As shown in this map, PRIZMCE was created at the neighbourhood (i.e., Dissemination Area) level. PRIZM CE Marketer’s Handbook Page 2 HOW can I reach them? Once you understand your targets, you can use PRIZMCE to evaluate the best ways to reach them. For media planning, you can learn which magazines and newspapers they read, and which cable or radio shows they prefer. For direct marketing, you can define selection criteria for mailing lists. With PRIZMCE, you can also analyze site potential and optimize in-store promotions and merchandise mix. The links to Environics Social Values even let you tailor your products, offers and messages to the mindset of your PRIZMCE target group.

The light green bar shows the percentage of Canadian households in each region across the country. The dark green bar shows the percentage of that cluster’s households in the same region. PRIZMCE Marketer’s Handbook - 2008 Page 3 U1 - Urban Elite The most affluent of Canadian neighbourhood types belong to Urban Elite, the social group that ranks at the top of many demographic measures: income, home value and educational achievement. With their university degrees and positions as executives and professionals, these middle-aged and older residents tend to live in fashionable homes and condos in big-city neighbourhoods and close-in suburbs. Befitting their lofty incomes, Urban Elite members are big consumers of expensive clothes, luxury cars, financial products and travel services. They’re also involved in their communities, politically active and philanthropic supporters of the arts.

Concentrated in a handful of established neighbourhoods--like Montreal’s Westmount, Toronto’s Forest Hill and Rosedale, Calgary’s Mount Royal and West Vancouver--it is home to super-rich, middle-aged families and older couples who live in elegant homes, drive luxury imports and send their kids to private schools. No cluster has a higher index for participating in yoga, owning a private cottage and supporting the arts. When they’re not tracking their investments on the web, the Cosmopolitan Elite are active in the community. Members take an interest in social issues and community projects, and they donate to cultural, educational and environmental groups--often as a way to give back to the community. Representing only 0.2 percent of the nation’s households, Cosmopolitan Elite is the smallest Canadian cluster. But what it lacks in size it more than makes up for in the affluence of its residents. These highly educated professionals and executives are wise and wealthy--the average household income is $388,000--and they frequent stores that sell gourmet foods, designer clothes and the latest in consumer electronics. The cluster features some diversity: nearly a quarter of residents immigrated to Canada years ago and 18 percent are Jewish. But most of the members of Cosmopolitan Elite are Canadian-born families who take getaways to private cottages and vacation abroad--especially to cultured settings across Europe and for winter getaways to Florida. WHERE THEY LIVE Westmount, Toronto, West Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa HOW THEY THINK Residents of Cosmopolitan Elite are strongest on the values that so often define the most successful members of society: Rejection of Authority and Need for Autonomy. They register a strong Need for Personal Achievement and wish to exercise their Personal Creativity. These Canadians see themselves as citizens not only of their local communities (they are strong on Community Involvement), but of the world: they have a sense of Belonging to the Global Village and Global Ecological Consciousness, no doubt bolstered by their travel experiences. They use technology to keep in touch both with professional contacts and with family and friends. With Awareness of Mortality, they are conscious of the Legacy they will leave behind. But on the whole, members of this cluster embrace the lives they have chosen and the rewards that have accrued to them. Cosmopolitan Elite residents appreciate marketing efforts that appeal to their open-minded, sophisticated outlook on the world. © 2008 Environics Analytics Group Ltd.

The nation’s second wealthiest cluster, it’s characterized by married couples with university degrees and university-aged children, and it includes a significant percentage of European and Asian immigrants. With their hefty salaries-- average household incomes top $201,000--Urbane Villagers members enjoy the trappings of wealth: designer clothes, vacation cottages and frequent trips abroad. But these Canadians also tend to be involved in their communities, as active and philanthropic members of cultural, political and environmental groups. Slightly younger and less affluent than Canada’s top-ranked citizens, Urbane Villagers residents are among the top contributors to RRSPs. They are also a bit more style-conscious and less formal in their consumption patterns. They’re more likely to shop at stores like Banana Republic and Club Monaco, the men more likely to wear cologne, the women more likely to wear less expensive jewellery. Although they’re able to afford flying business and first class, they’re not above flying economy as well. They rank near the top for buying books, personal computers and Australian wine, and also are heavily involved in the arts, as both benefactors and patrons of museums, art galleries and orchestras. WHERE THEY LIVE Mont-Royal, West Vancouver, King, Aurora, Oakville, Caledon, Mississauga, Toronto HOW THEY THINK Urbane Villagers is an affluent but not insular cluster. Residents are most distinguished by their openness to new ideas and people as well as their feeling of responsibility for their local environments and neighbourhoods. This connectedness to place and people gives rise to a number of progressive values, including Global Ecological Consciousness, Cultural Fusion, a belief in Equal Relationship with Youth and a sense of Vitality. Urbane Villagers residents believe that diversity gives life richness: they reject Ethnic Intolerance, and their Importance of Aesthetics and Adaptability to Complexity in Life suggests that they are seeking rich new experiences. The threads of diversity, aesthetics and community connectedness weave together strongly; Urbane Villagers residents love the idea of vibrant street life championed by urban theorist Jane Jacobs. And these Canadians are attracted to green products and local business. © 2008 Environics Analytics Group Ltd.
