Shopping habits are evolving and brands are quickly adapting their funnel to match how shoppers buy today.

They discover, compare, verify, revisit, and buy on their own timeline. Nearly a third are deliberately parking items in carts for months to track prices and weigh their options.

The latest Bazaarvoice Shopper Experience Index showed us why: Shoppers are adapting. They cycle through distinct, protective mindsets based on what they're buying and how much proof they need to commit. To win, brands need to know which mindset their shopper is in, and deliver the right proof, at the right moment, in the right form.

Join our insights expert, Alex Kirk, for a 30-minute live session as she breaks down the insights from the latest Shopper Experience Index report.
Stop fighting the new shopper journey. Start mapping your content journey to match it.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Help skeptical shoppers feel confident by auditing whether your customer content stands up to scrutiny
  • Map your content and messaging to fluid shopper mindsets instead of legacy demographic personas
  • Win over consumers who prefer supportive AI tools by optimizing your data for them

Quality is a perception that’s influenced by experience. If a customer isn’t happy with their experience, they won’t perceive a product or brand as being a high quality investment.
