  4. The results shown are relative and directional in nature. For reasons of confidentiality, we show tendencies rather than give exact figures, but overall these provide an adequate diagnosis. In general, the KPIs are percentages (base 100), which are always compared to norms (in the present case, those of CRM Metrix). These norms allow one to orient the results and put them into perspective compared to other tests carried out in the same context, the same product category, and the same type of brand.

This paper from MetrixLab outlines a research study dedicated to understanding why and how an ad goes viral. It involved MetrixLab setting up a YouTube channel and combining users’ behavioural data with their attitudinal data, derived from a survey that evaluated their attention, memory, ad response, and view of the brand. The results showed that it is vital that the video is watched in full for it to go viral. The study also found that the first seconds and last seconds are the most relevant in encouraging users to share a video.
