Strategies, best practices, and resources to navigate challenging times.

Did you know that brands that make cutbacks on marketing and advertising budgets during economic downturns (e.g., global pandemics, political changes, or recessions) see a significant loss once the economy recovers? How your brand responds to unforeseen circumstances matters.

Sure, it’s easy to panic when uncertain times arise, but cutting back on your advertising and marketing efforts isn’t going to help. It’s important to remember that consumers and the economy are resilient. Even during the worst times, there has always been a light at the end of the tunnel.

Best practices

It’s natural to find opportunities to make cutbacks during financial periods; however, according to Neilsen, when uncertainty arises, it becomes the perfect time to embrace a change in your media and advertising planning. The days of “set it and forget it” are over.

1. Plan throughout your year to mirror your consumer needs.

2. Identify the target audience and their media usage.

3. Review competitive spending and understand how competitors are spending their advertising dollars.

4. Use research to project reach and frequency.
