Where did all the paper go? Here is a simple infographic.

"As vaccination rates rise and consumers are more comfortable being outside of the home, we are likely to see increased spending on services, including restaurants and travel, while spending on goods will continue to hold steady,” said Daniel Bachman, Deloitte’s U.S. economic forecaster. “A steady decline in the savings rate to pre-pandemic levels will support consumer spending and keep retail sales elevated this season."

3. Reunited and it Feels So Good: CRMC 2021
NaviStone attended the first in-person industry conference this month, CRMC 2021. And while it was a little challenging navigating handshakes and talking through masks, it was great to interact and catch up with industry peers in person.
The temperature of the retailers who presented was upbeat and while struggles were consistent around supply chain, it was great to hear the focus of the importance of AI for building brand loyalty and the importance around the prioritization of first-party data. Did you know that 94% of consumers will accept cookies when they visit your website and expect to receive a positive experience? Also, QR codes are great on direct mail as 75% of the consumers that scan will provide their personal information and details. What a great way to start ramping up your first-party data set. If you don’t already subscribe to the CRMC newsletter, we recommend it!
