What habits should brands expect from consumers this festive period?🎁 Our Head of Retail Experience Strategy at VCCP, Stephen Renou, speaks to Creative Salon Worldwide. 💲Stephen explained that shoppers are not only expected to proceed with caution but some are also downtrading to cheaper gifts, setting spend limits and utilising credit. However, he suggests how this can be seen as an opportunity for brands, especially for more affordable gift categories like chocolate. 🍫 Renou uses our latest Cadbury campaigns, Secret Santa and Advent to show how brands can make the most of this year’s retail landscape. The campaigns tap into the “fundamental human truth” that is important at Christmas time: generosity, yet they also provide more affordable gifting for consumers who are feeling the pinch. 💜 By using “well-known gifting occasions like Secret Santa and Advent calendars” combined with “interactive, personalisable and digital-first assets”, consumers can not only connect with the brand both emotionally and digitally but also make the most of affordable and well-known gifting solutions.
