How are COVID-conscious consumers adapting to a world that is starting to get back to normal? Senior Content Marketing Manager Heather Bien recently wrote in marketing publication Street Fight about How to Cater to the Covid-Conscious Consumer.

So how have their expectations changed during the pandemic? How can you ease their anxieties and encourage them to shop in person again?
To feel comfortable returning to shopping in-store, 53% of shoppers want to see staff and customers wearing masks, and 46% expect enforced social distancing to be in place.
