Given the significance that consumers place on buying entertainment and recreation products,
Unity Marketing conducted a consumer research study about the market for entertainment and recreational products. For the purpose of this study, we did not examine spending on entertainment services, such as tickets or admissions. The purpose of the research study is as follows:
- To conduct a national survey of Americans to discover what entertainment and
recreation products they buy;
- To benchmark their spending on entertainment products and services and track
spending trends;
- To understand the influences on their entertainment and recreation purchasing, what
they look for in what they buy, and how they shop;
- To discover why they buy entertainment and recreation products, what are the key
motivators and drivers for consumption across 11 entertainment and recreation
product categories;
- Finally, the findings will give insights, understandings and discoveries about the
entertainment and recreation market to develop actionable marketing and branding
recommendations for companies and retailers targeting this market.
