Abstract:

For more than two decades, Strategy Analytics has been working with clients across industries to measure what drives consumers to make purchase choices of products and services ranging from smartphones and service plans, cars to restaurants, food, and beverages. 

The path-to-purchase has typically been driven by a combination of rational (e.g., price or features) and emotional factors which are often positive (e.g., pride or prestige) until COVID-19.  A new choice factor, FEAR, has altered the dynamics of everyday choices that consumers routinely make? fear of contracting the virus and getting sick or even dying, fear of the unknown.  While there is growing optimism that things will get better, the reality is consumers? mindset has changed.

Join Strategy Analytics as we share with you how consumers? purchase criteria are evolving, the increasing impact of emotions, and how companies and marketers need to adapt to these changing dynamics.
