Coronavirus (Covid-19): China

Twenty-twenty; the year that marked the beginning of a new decade ultimately resulted in a re-evaluation of our lives, our futures and the world we live in. At the center of this reset stood the global COVID-19 pandemic, but it was by no means the only causal factor. The pandemic has acted as a catalyst for behavioral change, accelerating slow-moving macro trends as well as creating entirely new ones. While the impact on human behavior can easily be exaggerated, it is undeniable that we are going through a dramatic alteration that will be looked back on as culturally pivotal. We could label 2020 as the new apocalypse. Yet, in the face of disaster, we also witnessed a revelation. The confinement of life in lockdown opened the door to new attitudes, behavior and values. 2020 not only forced us to stay inside, it also fundamentally changed how we seek and attain happiness. Leading to a fundamental ‘happiness reset’. So, what defines this post-2020 consumer, and what is the role for brands? This report uses a unique Human Drivers framework to capture how people are now seeking happiness and wellbeing, and how this is driving new behavior and expectations towards brands.

The FutureBrand Country Index 2020 includes a swathe of questions relating to coronavirus, including qualitative and quantitative data on the domestic handling of the virus in respondents’ country of residence. For example, in the U.K., a small majority of respondents (28%) felt the government had handled the crisis “reasonably well”. Just 15% of respondents felt it had been handled “extremely well”, mirrored closely by the number who felt it had been dealt with “very badly” (17%).

As a data analytics company, we wanted to analyse consumer confidence across the globe regarding the impact and implications of the Coronavirus pandemic. Our objective was to see how the crisis will affect the way that consumers make choices in the future. We surveyed a nationally representative sample of 4,500 consumers across nine countries in various stages of the pandemic. Here are our insights into consumer confidence and optimism for the future. By identifying consumers' mindset, attitude and purchasing habits, we enable businesses to understand better economic and social changes.

The prevalence of the pandemic has changed the value that healthcare workers have in society and the importance of their needs for almost every human being. In order to move forward, everyone must work together (governments, pharmaceutical companies, employers and individuals) to respond to the crisis and put the health and safety of consumers, HCPs, patients and employees first. The rubric for reputational and brand success has changed where Empathy, Patience, Support and Cooperation may be the new characteristics of success.

In just a few short months, this pandemic has changed our perceptions of the world to a degree typically seen only over years and decades. Our findings reveal changes in priorities, values and relationships driven by the role we all must play to mitigate the pandemic and its effects on society. As consumers and employees, this means a renewed focus on organizations as employers and places of public life. For brands and employers, this means the choices they make now will reverberate in consumers’ purchase decisions and workers’ employment decisions for years beyond the pandemic.

The global community has been stunned by the rapid evolution of COVID-19 as it has spread from east to west and grown in its impact since the start of the year. China suffered most dramatically in January and February 2020, Europe and North America continue to deal with lockdowns, unemployment and closures. As some countries and states are starting to re-open, companies are gearing up for the “new normal”.
