Reach Your Customers in a Post-COVID-19 World
May 27, 2020
While staying at home during quarantine, you might have taken up a new hobby like painting, binged favorite (and new) movies or TV shows, and caught up with old friends via video chat. It’s okay if you didn’t live your best #QuarantineLife – just trying to get through this challenging time is stressful enough.
In a post-COVID-19 world, consumer behavior is going to continue to shift and we want our audiences to reflect the world we live in. As lockdown restrictions are eased and social distancing guidelines continue to be enforced, it’ll be vital for companies to continue to adapt and adjust their strategies to stay connected with their audiences. Staying connected with your customers and getting information out to them is more important than ever during this time. To support the effort of staying connected, our latest audience releases are focused on consumer behavior related to the coronavirus pandemic.
How can you/marketers/advertisers use these audiences? It depends on the overall goal of your business and strategy. We outline some of the use cases for these audiences below.
- Distribution Centers during COVID quarantine: This audience can be used by warehouse solutions companies to reach workers with special offers related to warehouse supplies and safety equipment.
- Wholesale Shoppers during COVID quarantine: Wholesalers can promote offers to shoppers and keep them informed about changes in operating hours. Other grocery chains, who compete with wholesalers, can target their ads to customers who have been frequently shopping at wholesalers.
- Gas station visitors during COVID quarantine: Gas companies can target advertising campaigns to consumers who frequently visit their gas stations and encourage them to visit the gas station store with special promotions.
- Essential Workers: This audience can be used to send brand communications to employees who work in home improvement, grocery, restaurant, pharmacy, internet service providers, warehouses, and medical supplies business. This allows brands to communicate their products and services that can help these workers.
As the U.S. moves towards reopening, these audiences are going to continue to evolve as consumer behavior shifts nationwide. Check out a full list of our COVID-19 related audiences below.
