2. THREE THINGS TO TAKE AWAY FROM TODAY

Understand the
seven ways
consumer behaviour
has changed
Identify the key
consumer needs for
today’s brand
experiences
Demonstrate how
other brands have
adapted &
innovated to this
new world
4. The PWC CEO 2015 report
states that
9/10
Australian CEOs listed
digital innovation and its impact on customer
behaviour as the
number one
disruptive trend they face.
6. WE HAVE IDENTIFIED SEVEN WAYS
THAT CUSTOMER BEHAVIOUR HAS CHANGED
1. CONSUMERS ARE NOW IN CONTROL
2. RESEARCHING DIFFERENTLY
3. CONSUMER TO CONSUMER
4. BUILDING THEIR OWN SOLUTIONS
5. EVALUATING ACROSS CATEGORY
6. THE REDEFINED NEGOTIATION
7. CONSUMERS ARE LESS LOYAL

13. AN INTUITIVE BOND
46%
of what we do everyday
is the same.
A brands goal should be to build
that intuitive bond.
(BrandHook Habit Study 2013)
There are two key ways to build an Intuitive Bond with your
customers.
Provide meaning through your brand purpose – it adds depth
to the relationship - and deliver an effortless experience so
there are no moments of friction to disrupt their bond to you.
14. REAL TIME INTERACTIONS
40%
of people abandon a
website that takes more than
3 seconds to load
(kissmetrics.com 2016)
A new type of convenience is expected from today’s consumer and
when our ’Uber’ can turn up in 4 minutes why can’t everything else.
The success of crowdsourcing delivery methods, new distribution
channels and utilising excess capacity are businesses that have
capitalised on this trend.
15. PERSONALISATION AND USE MY DATA PROPERLY
According to Econsultancy,
only
19%
use personalisation in their
marketing despite the fact
that 74% of marketers know it
improves customer
engagement.
With the gathering and manipulation of big data by business,
customers are demanding proper personalisation.
Wasting their time with irrelevant offers, products and not
tailoring the brand experience to the needs will alienate
them.
24. HOW TO ADAPT TO THIS CHANGING
CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR

Define what role
your brand
plays in your
consumers lives
Get intimate with
your consumers and
understand the
granularity of their
lives
Map your customer
experience and
innovate to solve
pain points
How Consumer Behaviour is Changing and What Brands can do to Capitalise on It
We all know that the digital revolution has completely transformed the way consumers are interacting with brands, yet the real problem is that most businesses are still struggling to keep up. In this session, Pip Stocks, founder of brand insights agency BrandHook, will:
Identify the seven changes in consumer behaviour, from how consumers are researching differently and negotiating a better deal, to how they’re building their own solutions

The success of subscription models, crowdsourcing delivery methods, new distribution channels are delivering convenience and a better experience for this tribe. They love the new and shiny especially if it makes their lives easier.
Customer experience mapping was de rigor in the late 90’s. In fact, you would see them plastered on the walls of any decent marketing department. It meant that the whole company had visibility to the customer journey which reduced silo thinking and encouraged collaboration.
Why has such an important process been dropped from marketing workflows?

Agreed, it is a much harder concept to map a customer journey as their behaviour is more complex. But with the customer wanting delivery of their products and services in real time, brands must work through the myriad of channels, to build a picture of how the consumer gets to choose your brand.
Only then can you unearth the unmet needs and interrogate the pain points to deliver an effortless customer experience.
