KEYS - Why context really matters: Find out more

People aren’t robots, they don’t make carefully-balanced purchase decisions, based only on relative price and utility. Context matters: our Ipsos Global Trends survey shows rising proportions saying they want to buy brands which share their values. Overall, up to 50% of brand choice can be driven by societal or behavioural factors. We all need to stay tuned to this broader environment, as people around the world continue to deal with an array of global and local uncertainties.
At the next episode in our KEYS webinar series, we’ll be reflecting on how a better understanding of cultures, countries and communities can help us make more informed decisions.
