Webinar On Demand | Customer First Engagement and COVID-19: Life After the Curve

Webinars

The "new normal" isn't really normal at all. Life amid COVID-19 has forced U.S. consumers to adopt new behaviors, dramatically impacting how they shop, work and go about their daily lives. Trips to the grocery store are now once weekly trips to buy essentials and stock the pantry for home cooking. And, vulnerable consumers now rely on online ordering and delivery services they were once reluctant to try.

On average, it takes 66 days for new behaviors to become automatic. The majority of U.S. consumers will cross that milestone under pandemic restrictions very soon. Retailers should prepare now to successfully serve their customers after the "COVID curve."


Join dunnhumby's Emily Turner, Head of Customer Engagement for North America, and John O'Reilly, Head of Customer Development for North America, as they discuss:

  • The future of loyalty and reward programs and what retailers should do now to better align with the emotional and functional needs of customers after the curve
  • Communications strategies and tactics that are improving the digital customer experience
  • The best practices likely to continue to drive and grow customer engagement post COVID-19

Want to improve your financial performance and deepen engagement with your customers? Improving your value perception is key.

With findings from 11,000 US households, the study sheds light on what's most important to customers, and highlights which marketing levers retailers must pull to influence value perception.
