This 94 page PowerPoint report examines the LSM 10 segment of South Africa and provides a comprehensive profile of the LSM 10 wealthy segment. In 2011, 6.4% of all South African adults lived in households classified as LSM 10, representing just over 2 million adults (16+ years) living in the most materially affluent households.

LSM (the Living Standards Measure) has become the most widely used marketing research tool in South Africa by measuring the material affluence of households (rather than individuals) and dividing the population into 10 groups, 10 (highest) to 1 (lowest). The consumer analysis is based on an annual consumer survey among a nationally representative sample of 25,000 people - All Media and Products Survey conducted by the South African Advertising Research Foundation.

Some of the key questions the report will help you to answer are:
  • What are the geo-demographic trends (2009-2011) for LSM 10? e.g. age, gender, lifestage 
  • Who are LSM 10? e.g. age, gender, affluence, life-stage, geographics
  • How do you engage with them? e.g. lifestyle, cellphone, Internet, sports, music interests
  • What media do you use to communicate to them? e.g. Online media, TV, radio, newspapers, magazines
  • What are the important consumer trends that should be included in your business strategy?
It provides a comprehensive profile of the entire LSM 10 segment, as well as a detailed segmentation according to gender and age (15-24, 25-34, 35-49, 50+) making it the perfect reference report for anyone who wants to understand this segment of the market.
