CUSTOM RESEARCH
American Way commissions custom research regularly to procure data that serves as a true content guide as well as to provide advertisers with valuable reader insights. American Way conducts this research to better understand the demographics, lifestyles and purchase behaviors and intents of its target reader, the most frequent customers of American Airlines.
WHAT WAS THE TIMING OF THIS RESEARCH?
October 2004
WHO CONDUCTED THE RESEARCH?
American Way worked in tandem with the Customer Research Division of American Airlines as well as AA.com and AAdvantage® to conduct a thorough and objective analysis.
WHAT METHODS WERE USED TO COLLECT THIS DATA?
American Way invited American Airlines customers to participate in the online survey at www.americanwaymag.com between October 1 and October 15, 2004. The October 1 issue Editor's Note mentioned the survey, and American Airlines E-mailed 236,000 top tier AAdvantage® members, encouraging them to weigh in about American Way magazine.
While American Airlines offered no incentive for participation in this exclusively online survey, 30,213 customers logged on and completed it. This represents a 13% rate of response. The results reported here reflect the 27,037 AA customers who indicated they read American Way.
