Industry aspects of pricing, segmentation and competition in the Russian market of digital VoD services

DOI: 10.33917/mic-1.114.2024.55-67

This article examines the sectoral aspects of pricing, segmentation and competition in the Russian market of digital VoD services in modern socio-economic conditions. Various pricing models (video monetization) are considered in order to create a successful video business based on loyal viewers based on three main formats: SVoD, TVoD and AVoD. It is shown that the Russian streaming platform market has been gaining popularity in recent years and grew by 44% in 2023 compared to 2022 year.

The Russian online platforms that produce or plan to produce their own video content and those who have not yet started filming, but have expressed a desire to produce their own content, are analyzed. The partnerships of online cinemas with ecosystems, telecom operators and other service companies are considered.

It is shown that over the past year and a half, Russia has demonstrated a serious breakthrough in creating an alternative to the most popular Western video hosting.  Rutube has already begun to support a load of 50 million people and has successfully survived a number of digital platform upgrades.

Type data consideration in market objects analysis. Part 2. Building images based on factors of numeric types

DOI: 10.33917/mic-6.113.2023.29-47

The issues of the correct application of mathematical statistics in the processing of marketing research results, taking into account the type of data obtained, are considered. The indicators of the trend and the spread of data in the analysis of consumer preferences and perception of market objects (goods/ trademarks/firms) in relation to numeric data (interval-type and stronger) are discussed. Examples of constructing images of market objects based on interval type data are given. The advantages of analyzing interval-type factors constructed in an optimal way in solving the tasks are shown.

Analysis of consumer perception in the space of image-forming factors. Part 2: Positions in comparison with competitors

DOI: 10.33917/mic-5.106.2022.26-49

This study considers the analytical principles of market object perception (goods, trademarks, firms) by consumer in the image-forming space, with an emphasis on the correctness of the application of methods and interpretation of results (in terms of comparing perceived positions with competitors’ positions against the consumer ideals). The proposed approach to analysis is based on the identification of factors that determine market processes and the construction of images of real goods / brands / firms in the perception of representatives of the target group. The issues of product / brand / company promotion are discussed based on the analysis of consumer perception. The presented approach is applied to solve some practical problems, such as identifying factors of perception of goods / brands / firms, building their images in the space of consumer attitudes, analyzing the configuration of images in comparison with the competitors and ideals, developing a strategy and essential details of promotion.
