fortune through shipping But he had a bit of a hobby He devoted almost 20 years of his spare time to a study of poverty At a personal cost of about £1.3 million in today’s money Where did segmentation begin?
regularly discussed the social problems of the day Perhaps the most pressing in the rapidly growing Victorian cities was that of poverty This was often sensationally reported in the contemporary press to provoke fear amongst its readers Booth recognised the importance of a true description in facts and figures of the social landscape. In 1884 he undertook to assist in the allocation of the Lord Mayor of London's Relief Fund, by analysing census returns
that the census, at that time, was not fit for purpose A report was published in 1885 that stated up to 25% of the population of London lived in extreme poverty Booth disagreed and told the author that "in his opinion he had grossly overstated the case“ And that he would himself be undertaking an inquiry into the condition of workers in London
work was published under the title Life and Labour of the People in 1889 A second volume, entitled Labour and Life of the People, covering the rest of London, appeared in 1891 This was later expanded between 1892-1897 A third volume was published as Life and Labour of the People in London in 1902-1903
of researchers recorded a huge amount of data over the years of study The survey methodology was complex and original Booth attempted to understand the lives of Londoners through an investigation of 1. their places of work and working conditions 2.their homes and the urban environments in which they lived 3. through the religious life of the city
Board visitors, and policemen on their beats They interviewed factory owners, workers and trade union representatives at their places of work or in their homes They visited ministers of religion and their congregations The data they gathered was then used to generate statistical evidence of the living and working conditions of Londoners
collect data for every family in London He began in Tower Hamlets and worked his way through Hackney Soon realised that this goal was unachievable They collected information for the rest of London on a street by street basis
of a “Poverty Line” He set this line at 10 to 20 shillings Which he considered to be the minimum amount necessary for a family of 4 or 5 people to subsist Through his work Booth finally identified that 35% of Londoners lived in poverty
the start of the modern movement In 1966 Richard Webber was working at the Centre for Environmental Studies investigating measures of social deprivation in Liverpool He used data from the 1966 Census to build a ward level classification that identified deprived areas with different needs
to work for CACI where he built Modern Geodemographics was born This was immediately overlaid onto TGI to allow the segmentation to be cross tabulated with the UK’s largest market research sample
to join CCN - which later became known as Experian The largest business services company in the world In 1986 they launched Since then Mosaic has taken over the world
multi billion dollar market worldwide And it was all started by a ship owner from Liverpool who wanted a better view of the scale of poverty in Victorian London [email protected]
