People Data Center

Unilever’s People Data Center has the answer to changing consumer behaviors.

COVID-19 as a pandemic has shaken up the global economy and our way of life in an unimaginable way. It has also impacted the daily lives of consumers and has fundamentally changed their needs and expectations towards products and services. While immediate restrictions have triggered unforeseen new buying behaviors – including a massive switch to digital channels, consumers are also sharing their experiences, beliefs, and pain points increasingly across these platforms. Profound consciousness of the disruption may also result in permanent changes in the affinity to brands and/or products categories.

In such times, it is imperative for organizations to listen to consumers in real time, meet their immediate and evolving needs, tailor customer engagement and protect the brand.

Time to act

Organizations must act fast and must act now to not just keep up but also re-align their strategies to what could be expected next.
