Zeta’s Big Digital Trends Takeaway

Consumer confidence is coming back, and people are starting to patronize brick-and-mortar businesses once again. This is very positive news for small businesses as well as shopping malls. Therefore, marketers in retail (as well as the travel, and hospitality sectors) should capitalize on low CPMs to re-engage consumer audiences sidelined for the last two-months due to coronavirus. 

In conclusion, Zeta hopes the following insights can help guide you to make wiser decisions over the weeks and months ahead. In the meantime, stay safe, stay healthy, and be well.
