It\u2019s not a secret that the world had changed since Covid-19. If we try to sum it all up, 3 key changes are leading to a big shift in consumer tastes and behaviors (aka crowd wisdom)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crowd wisdom is the sum of all data that is collected through call centers, reviews, feedbacks on any platform, forum, website, or social media. The information gathered from the reviews is then transformed into an opinion that reflects a group of people rather than a single voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When isolated at home the way to communicate, purchase, share is online. eCommerce is booming and with it the feedback data is piling up in the form of reviews, social media, as well as an array of corporate feedback channels such as call centers, chats, surveys, emails, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consumers, on the other hand, love to voice<\/a> their opinion <\/a>and now it\u2019s so easy \u2013 from mobiles, tablets, smart watches and even computers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These days literally anyone can start a new brand online. Costs are low and reach is high. Not to mention the great success stories like Dollar Shave Club or even apps like Uber. This is why brands must stay on top of what is going on online, covering the 3 \u2018T\u2019s:<\/p>\n\n\n\n At time of change brands need to pick up on trends quickly, and make decisions fast.
