According to the recently conducted Nielsen Global Online Consumer Survey, in the UAE, 95% of Internet consumers trust recommendations from people they know, making word of mouth the most trusted medium. From over 25,000 Internet consumers surveyed from 50 countries, results showed that recommendations by personal acquaintances and opinions posted by consumers online have been voted as the most trusted forms of advertising globally. Nine in every 10 Internet consumers worldwide (90%) trust recommendations from people they know, whilst seven in every 10 (70%) trust consumer opinions posted online, the survey revealed.
“Earlier in the year, Breathe, the Dubai-based independent brand consultancy, were commissioned by the International Cricket Council (ICC), to develop a top-line strategy, naming and brand identity programme for THINK WISE – a global partnership initiative between the International Cricket Council (ICC), UNAIDS, UNICEF and the Global Media AIDS Initiative (GMAI).
Using the power of cricket to help tackle key issues around HIV and AIDS, THINK WISE has been designed to encourage and motivate safer behaviour and tackle stigma against people living with HIV throughout the world’s diverse network of cricket playing countries. The initiative utilises the role that sport plays in helping to bring people together to tackle key issues and encourage social change.
THINK WISE was launched at this year’s ICC World Twenty20 cricket tournament in London, with 2009 also marking ICC’s Centenary.”
