The 2019 Crisis Impact Report: How Customers React To A Brand Crisis
90%
90% of consumers say they are likely to shop with a brand that responds well to crises.
Consumer expectations for how brands respond during a crisis are high. This is further complicated by the increasing weaponization of communications on social media, and “bad actors” who use social to spread misinformation and disinformation about these brands - to the point where sometimes brands don’t even know what’s true or false.
When a crisis strikes, brands need to be the first to know, so that they can be the first to act. And, when they do, it is critical for brands to have the right actionable intelligence to make an informed decision.
In the 2019 Crisis Impact Report, we surveyed 2,000 U.S. and U.K. consumers to understand the effect of a crisis on brand value and the importance of a strategic response to maintain customer loyalty.
