5. What is the MCA®?
A unique approach
• MCA stands for Market Contact Audit.
• MCA is a unique research methodology that has surveyed more than 2 million consumers
in 40 languages, in more than 500 categories around the world
• It is category and market specific.
• It’s a consumer-based approach, relying on a quantitative survey of a representative sample (circa 1000) of
buyers / consumers of every audited category.
• It measures the impact (what consumers perceive) NOT the “emission” (what consumers receive): it’s an
outcome indicator vs. an input measure.
• It’s the only tool capable of embracing all possible touch points.
• MCA provides the “metrics” platform to introduce accountability in marketing communications (marcoms)
by measuring through a universal metric - a common currency called the Brand Experience Point (BEP)- the
effectiveness of a brand’s diverse marcoms initiatives from the consumers’ perspective.

7. How does MCA work
June 2016
Contact Clout
Factor
(CCF)
Contact
Association
Brand Experience
Point
(BEP)
Category Influence indicator Brand Performance
Each contact is evaluated on how it
performs along a persuasion process
that typically includes three stages:
• Rational stage (informative
value)
• Emotional stage (attractive
value)
• Deal closing stage (power value)
Measures how much consumers
have experienced brands through
the various contacts.
A brand specific metric influenced
by:
• Spend
• Execution (content, media plan)
• Targeting
• Carry-over effect
The single currency
If, for example, I want to compare
the performance of Brand A on TV
vs. in-store sampling, I need to
know:
• If TV is more or less influential
than in-store sampling (at
category level)
• If Brand A has been
experienced more or on TV
than on in-store sampling
Outcome of communication activity
8. The MCA® provides a single currency, the Brand Experience Point (BEP)

to influence consumer attitudes towards brands in a given category
“Brand Experience Points”

• Source:
• MCA studies between 2010 and 2015

• Total = 431 studies
• Remarks about OOH contact classification:
• OOH (cumulative) includes: big billboard formats, small billboard formats, public transportation,
shopping malls, sports stadium, airports, etc.
• OOH (main) refers mostly to the usual “street” format in the country where the study was conducted.
