With COVID-19 case counts declining and vaccination efforts underway, eager consumers and retailers are both looking hopefully toward a future return to normal.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past year (and I know that is sometimes how it has felt!) you will have noticed that consumer and shopper behavior has changed significantly over the last twelve months. One of the challenges we face is to understand which new behaviors will stick, and which will change again, perhaps reverting to the way things were before.

Like creating a recipe or writing a song, sculpting an effective pricing strategy for your business takes a lot of trial and error. You want your customers to like it and you want it to work well for your business model. But, there’s no cookie-cutter way to create a great strategy. Every customer would love ridiculously low prices every day, but that comes at a major cost to your brand.

Today, most CPG brands or grocery retailers would consider the retailer’s own website the single most important digital touch point for online grocery shopping. Throughout the last five to 10 years of grocery ecommerce evolution, the industry has been hyper-focused on how it could bring the brick-and-mortar format online. This led to a narrow focus on the retailers’ owned digital properties and traditional methods of user tracking and communication, like the loyalty card.

Cyberthreats evolve constantly, but one rule endures: hackers will never break down your front door if they can get in through an open window. Most retailers are keenly aware that the credit card and customer data on their networks is a prime target for hackers, and so they barricade access points to their websites and ecommerce systems to ward off intrusion.

For a shopper, not much thought is given to walking into a brick-and-mortar store, finding the right product quickly and easily, and checking out with no hassle. Behind the scenes, however, is a completely different story. For brands and retailers, especially in the consumer packaged goods space, the exact opposite is true. A lot of thought goes into the shopper experience, and how they can find exactly what they’re looking for (or what you want them to look for).
