• Moving Forward with Recovery Planning and MobileScapes

   

  COVID-19 has disrupted virtually every aspect of the world’s social and economic fabric, including Canada’s. But as we edge toward the down-side of the curve, organizations of every kind have to plan for economic recovery. How do marketers and other decision-makers move forward in these uncharted waters? We believe the answer is threefold:  First, developing an understanding of consumers’ movement away from their homes – who are they, where they are going, for how long and how this is changing week-to-week (and importantly, how this compares relative to pre-pandemic patterns) Second, differentiating these consumers and citizens based on their demographics, motivations and attitudes Third, identifying the neighbourhoods where these varying populations live in order to effectively reach and engage them Successfully accomplishing the steps above means leveraging new and existing data sources (including mobile movement data), incorporating innovative technologies and applying analytical and industry sector expertise – all within a privacy-compliant framework. Learn more about the launch of new MobileScapes and other products that can help businesses, not-for-profits and government agencies on the road to recovery.
