The pandemic of 2020 has taken the world by storm. People are
stuck inside their homes, waiting for the cure and hoping that the disease doesn’t
spread anymore. The sheer death and destruction this pandemic have brought us has
made our lives miserable.
Amidst the shock and awe, the consumer shopping and spending
trends have changed very dramatically. People are still only adjusting to this lockdown
life by taking up their hobbies like gardening, reading among other things. In
the start of the lockdown, the main concern for the people were the essentials
as there was a threat that general stores will be closed and we will have a
little Walking Dead situation on our hands. Fortunately, that wasn’t the case
and precautions were taken up to sustain the general essential businesses.
However, many businesses still physically closed and have
taken up the internet as their store. This is the high-time for businesses to
start investing in online marketing because the consumer trend is heavily
shifting towards it. It may also be the case that consumers may stick to the
online shopping trends post-coronavirus even more than pre-coronavirus.
Consumer trends formed in this pandemic has changed the
dynamic completely and may even have set the bar for online shopping in the future.
