Let’s face it: People everywhere on the planet are emotionally drained or financially strained – or both. The pandemic’s perfect storm of market and mental conditions turns up the pressure on companies to rethink customer segmentation and reshape their messaging.
As marketers, before we even sit down at the desk to implement our strategies, we need to map the customer journey. But optimizing that journey to encourage your users to move from stage to stage, traveling smoothly through the funnel, is the Holy Grail.
eCommerce apps and digital marketplaces are seeing record shopping activity but the pandemic has also exposed severe shortcomings in the supply chain (think about the toilet paper shortage in the U.S.). So the question is, what can marketers do to adapt? How can they change the shopping habits of their users and when should they pivot?
A single-digit increase in retention can mean a double – or even triple-digit increase in profits. Returning customers are more likely to spend – and to spend more. But in order to get there, you have to keep customers coming back.
Normally, this month would mark the end of school for the summer for many. But the COVID-19 pandemic, which has interrupted education globally, may have changed the routine forever.
Let’s face it, in 2020, retention isn’t just the goal, it’s the game changer. Focusing on retention is simply a more efficient path to growth than constantly hustling to acquire new users.

Self-isolation is causing stress, creating big problems for relationships, and huge opportunities for apps that help people improve their relationships. LifeCouple, a relationship empowerment platform, combines a compelling product (a “democratized therapy solution”) and individualized marketing to help couples address, monitor, and improve their relationships.

Shopping apps are soaring in popularity, but the influx of organics may be too much of a good thing. The opportunity: Costs and conversions are in a rare balance, with install-to-purchase rates rising through the roof. The challenge: Marketers need to make tough choices about the new users they should retarget and retain, and the ones they should let lapse.

Rattled by unemployment numbers and wracked by the economic fallout of Covid-19, people everywhere are forced to re-evaluate how they will make and save money. Keenly aware of where their paycheck is going and eager to improve financial wellness, record numbers of consumers are looking to mobile finance apps for advice and answers.
Brand management has never been easy. Finding ways to communicate effectively and appropriately in the COVID-19 era, when consumers are deeply anxious about their families and their future, poses an even greater challenge.
Effective marketing and messaging demand a personal touch–but during a pandemic, it’s table stakes. However, showing empathy at scale requires marketers to strike a balance between automation and customization.
These are trying times for marketing. Ad budgets are imploding and companies are cash-strapped. It’s natural for brands and agencies to want to dial back spend and hunker down until skies are clear again.
