E-commerce Insights: How the pandemic changed the way consumers make major purchases
Manage episode 355447809 series 3443498
Consumers are placing more emphasis on the online portion of the buying process than ever before. This was a key takeaway in Synchrony’s most recent Major Purchase Journey Study, which surveyed more than 3,800 consumers who spent $500 or more on purchases in mid-2021, including power equipment and automotive. Two things are driving permanent changes in the consumer journey. One, people want to have confidence in their purchases—they want to know they’re making the right choice with the right retailer. Two, they want the process to be easy. They want to get in and get out with their desired product. All of this adds up to more time spent online researching options, prices and financing terms before they ever set foot in a powersports dealership. Dealers who are cognizant of these changes and embrace them will discover new opportunities to connect with their customers in the current environment and build a strong foundation for future adventures.
