on business and the economy, with

week-on-week growth across UVs (+4%),

Visits (+7%) and Page Views (+6%).

In this week's Consumer Pulse sentiment

report, Australians are continuing to feel

a sense of caution with the return to

normal. Also diverse content is in

demand from finance to footy, with the

Telstra NRL premiership returning to

Nine.

Audiences continue to turn to Nine Radio

can share their opinions. The second GfK

Familiar sights

Australia is beginning to consider life ‘on the other

side’, with occasional glimpses of familiarity.

Brand implication

During this transition phase brands need to

communicate in a transparent manner, supporting

consumers to return to familiar purchasing behaviours

with greater flexibility.

The ninth instalment of Nine’s Consumer

Pulse sees consumers looking to the

return of a sense of normality, with

familiar sights emerging. A renewed focus on health and well-being, and

bigger-picture issues are returning to the

agenda.

This week Consumer Pulse shifts focus to

take a deeper look at key categories

from finance to footy. Sport content was

a hot topic for audiences with the NRL

Telstra Premiership set to return to Nine’s

screens from May 28.

Furthermore, a deeper look at the

finance category identifies an increased

demand for finance content, at higher

levels than pre-COVID, with age and

gender impacting the type of banking

and finance content consumed.

The bigger picture

As the immediacy of Australia’s

crisis starts to fade, attention

is turning back to pre-COVID

concerns of climate change and

sustainability.

Brand implication

Corporate social responsibility will

continue to be under the

spotlight as consumers further

question the actions of business

in creating a more positive future

post-covid.

Well beings

Increased movement brings a renewed focus on

wellbeing, as physical and mental health come into

focus.

Brand implication

Brands must look to how they as a good corporate

citizen can help support their customers during this

time.

Mood and concern tracker

After a minor wobble last week the mood has steadied: hope and optimism are again ascendant, levels of concern have plateaued. The easing of restrictions is bringing some relief and the mood tracker sees ‘isolation’ and ‘boredom’ in sharp decline.

However there is also an underlying current of

uncertainty with marked increases in those feeling ‘hesitant’ and ‘unsure’. Audience concerns are shifting towards the mental health impacts of preceding weeks and in times ahead.

Engage Men 45-55 with Australia’s newest easy listening stationsDid you know that Men 45-55 years old are 3.8 times more likely to have a personal

income of over $200K, are highly influential when it comes to household purchases and spend more than one hour a day listening to the radio? Yet despite this, there has been a gap in the market when it comes to giving them a station dedicated to their generation.

One of Australia’s favourite radio personalities, Stevie Jacobs, returns to lead Nine Radio’s new music stations and to give our audiences the best music and more of it, from the 70's, 80's, 90's and 00's.
