Consumer Connections: The COVID-19 Chronicles
About This ebook
You have questions about how consumers have coped and continue to deal with the new normal amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
Here are resources and easy ways for you to hear directly from consumers.
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, C+R hosted live roundtable discussions with consumers.
We asked our clients to submit questions they were interested in learning about from the consumers, and these questions fueled the discussion.
Learn how your company/brand can support consumers in this current, evolving market, and economic climate. We’ve provided you with links to videos, podcasts, blogs, and infographics on what we learned from consumers.
