Three ways rising consumer fear affects data and insights
New research on consumer fear and anxiety, conducted both before and during the global pandemic, reveals the tremendous impact of current events on the American psyche. We already knew that consumers are operating from a place of insecurity, driven by long-running trends and emerging concerns, but how will rising fear affect the data we collect and the insights we share? Organizations - from market research agencies to brands - must adapt to this reality to maintain authentic, trusting and engaged relations with consumers.
- Examine original research that compares data on fear-based behaviors both pre- and post-pandemic
- Explore how our current reality is impacting consumer sentiment and behaviors, and what we can all do to keep up
- Uncover the specific factors that are influencing fear and anxiety among certain groups
- Understand the breakdown of traditional demographic divides to a more nuanced audience
