Charcteristics of the 7 Usage Occasions
None of the 7 usage occasion types was dominant in the study
- 44% of users appeared in all 7 categories- 67% of users appeared in 5 or more categories

What does this really mean?
* Depending on usage occasion- some people open to a range of messages- some people will pay attention only to highly targeted messages- some people will ignore anything not directly related to their session
* It’s not about saying - if I know the consumer- I can create the ad- and run it anytime the consumer is likely to be on the internet

* Quickies, Single Mission, Just the Facts, Do It Again- shorter sessions overall but page views lengthy- less likely to buy- will click through to related information
