We released the 2015 Temkin Well-Being Index, which shows that U.S. consumers feel less financially secure this year than they did last year. You can see the data below.
This month's journal also includes highlights from two recent reports:
-
Data Snapshot: Media Use Benchmark, 2015. This annual study examines the amount of time consumers spend on activities such as watching television, browsing the Internet, reading books (both print and electronic), listening to the radio, reading a print magazine, and using a mobile phone.
-
There's still room to register for our upcoming workshop in San Diego on June 2nd & 3rd: Driving Customer Experience Transformation. It's an opportunity to gain the knowledge and tools to make your organization more customer-centric.

In Case You Missed It...
Here are some reports we discussed in recent journals:

2015 Temkin Forgiveness Ratings
Every organization makes mistakes, so forgiveness is an important element of loyalty. That's why we just published the 5th annual Temkin Forgiveness Ratings. It uses feedback from 10,000 U.S. consumers to rate the level of forgiveness earned by 293 organizations across 20 industries. Here are the top and bottom rated firms:

2015 Temkin Well-Being Index
To gauge the overall quality of life for the U.S. population, we created the Temkin Well-Being Index (TWI), which measures the degree to which consumers feel happy, healthy, and financially secure. As you can see below, the TWI dropped slightly due to a decline in consumers' feelings about their financial security. You can also see the TWI by age and gender in a recent blog post.

Media Use Benchmark, 2015
Our annual Media Use Benchmark examines the amount of time consumers spend every day watching television, browsing the Internet (for both work and leisure), reading books (both print and electronic), reading newspapers (both print and electronic), listening to the radio, reading a print magazine, and using a mobile phone.
Here's one of the key graphics that shows the decline in TV watching and the rise of Internet and mobile usage.

Social Media Benchmark, 2015
Our annual Social Media Benchmark examines the frequency with which consumers in different age groups use computers and mobile phones to access Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest, Tumblr, and third-party rating sites.
Here are some of the findings:
- Daily Facebook use stayed the same on computers, but grew 13 %-points over the previous year.
- For many of the social media sites, young adults cut back their daily usage while 35- to 44-year-olds increased the most.
- For many of the social media sites, young adults are more active on mobile phones than on computers, especially on LinkedIn.
- 25- to 34-year-olds are the most active on Twitter, Google+, Pinterest, and ratings sites.
- iPhone users are the most active on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest, while Blackberry users are the most active on LinkedIn, Tumblr, and ratings sites.
