For Immediate Release:
Los Angeles, CA, March 17, 02004—Free weekly online news stories and trend information about the global youth culture marketplace is now available online at www.labelnetworks.com, hosted by Label Networks, Inc., the youth culture marketing intelligence and research company known for obtaining authentic research from hard-to-reach markets. This latest online publishing move by Label Networks is part of their on-going development of a global youth culture think tank and research laboratory, called The Label Lab.
“The Label Lab gives us space to run some of the core news stories, research, and street photos from our writers, photographers, and artists who have access to various subcultures around the world,” says Label Networks’ Vice President, Kathleen Gasperini. “It’s also an area of incubation where you can see the threads between so-called errant details, such as stenciled graffiti art on a T-shirt or sneakers and facts about the iPod generation, or how the birth of snowboarding in China is shaping youth identity. These things are causing a ripple effect in the larger picture. Some people will get that and act on it--however, not always as a way to simply sell more products to young people, but to create something new of their own, inspired by other people’s genius.”
As part of their expanding online publishing model, Label Networks is also offering subscriptions online to their 02004 youth culture studies, including North America , Europe , Japan , and introducing China (starting with Beijing and Shanghai ). Online access will make it easier for subscribers to navigate through specific quantitative results and charts and qualitative editorial summaries, plus call-up related stories and photos about various subjects, including access to historical Label Networks’ newsletters, articles, and presentations. The online format also responds to clients’ needs for deeper analysis based on additional segmentation and charts (i.e., cross-tabulations by age and gender), historical comparisons, new personality profiles, and access to Label’s photo and fashion ethnography library with thousands of categorized images that capture attitude, style, and expression.
Online subscriptions to Label Networks marketing intelligence and research benefits global brands that need to compare information across cultures, as well as smaller companies who need to work within limited budgets. Custom online subscriptions allow different levels of access to specific topics based need and budget.
