How Does "Trust" Affect Loyalty: A Cross-Category Examination of How "Trust" Affects Customer Behavior and What Marketers Can Do About It

Wednesday, November 13, 2019 - 2:10 PM - 2:50 PM
Customer expectations for the value of “trust” have increased – an average of 250+ percent since 2018 – across 110 categories tracked in the Brand Keys Customer Loyalty Engagement Index. Normally in the 2 percent to 25 percent range, this year has shown an unprecedented spike, the first time where basic tenets of loyalty and engagement have been turned upside-down. The root of this change are currents and marketplace predispositions being affected by values outside traditional category and brand attribute, benefit, and value components that shape the manner in which consumers will “trust” brands.
 
Key Takeaways:

- What – and how much – has changed in your category as regards trust
- How this has affected loyalty
- How your company can prepare to address “trust’s” new normal
- How to translate “trust” into actual strategies and loyalty programs
- How you can leverage “trust” to fuel earnings and corporate growth
