If you had asked anyone last year what they would expect in 2020, no one could have imagined a devastating worldwide #pandemic. In our latest #covid19 report, we see that in many ways U.S. consumers are continuing to slowly adjust to life as we know it. From being concerned with their own personal health and safety, respondents now seem to worry more about the #economicimpact and trying to #supportlocalbusinesses. We hope you are all safe and healthy! Please let us know if th...ere is any way we can support you or if you have any questions. Additionally, if you are interested in insights like these, remember to follow us here and on LinkedIn to stay in the know. Thank you once again to #MaryCooper and #CarrieShea for your collaboration! https://medium.com//2020-is-not-what-i-imagined-93783127b2

Supporting #localbusinesses is more important now than ever! In our latest #covid19 pulse check, we asked respondents who said that they still order takeout or delivery why they do so. We found that the number 1 response was to support local businesses (85% support strength). As a startup ourselves, this sentiment means a lot. It's amazing to know that those who are able to do so are wanting to keep small businesses alive. Want more insights? Follow us here and on LinkedIn! O...ur fifth report will be released soon. #supportlocalbusinesses

We may be reaching equilibrium in fear of #covid19, but anxiety about the long-term #economicimpact and the lethality rate is on the rise. In our latest study, we see that people are starting to accept our current situation as the #newnormal. For instance, it seems like people are starting to feel more comfortable in ordering take-out and delivery than they have over the past few weeks. This perhaps is a glimpse of people adjusting to the major changes in our lives. Instead, ...what is worrisome to many is the uncertainty of how life will be like once this #pandemic is over. We appreciate your interest in our pulse checks so far! We hope that this report can help you make sense of some of what is going on in the world. Keep following us to stay informed.

Excited for results from our fourth pulse check? We certainly are!! We are wrapping up analysis from our most recent #covid19 study. Make sure you are following us here and on LinkedIn to keep up to date! Previews of the data will be released, and then we will share the full report in a few days. Until then, we wanted to share a glimpse into how consumers' are feeling this week. It comes to no surprise that level of concern towards #coronavirus is continuously increasing. As you can see, almost 40% of respondents reported that they are "extremely concerned". How are you all feeling? #stayhomestaysafe

Yesterday, we shared an interesting breakdown of respondents' thoughts on whether news coverage about #covid19 is over-exaggerated or not. We were still intrigued in what U.S. shoppers were feeling, so we decided to break it down even more: #foxnews viewers vs. #cnn viewers. As you can see, there are quite a few differences depending on where people are primarily getting their news from. Do you think this trend will continue, or will we all end up thinking similarly as this #pandemic progresses? On another note, we are working on our fourth pulse check, so keep following us to see what we release during these next few days!

Remember when many people would argue that the #covid_19 news and media coverage was over-exaggerated? We remember that too. Some of that mindset seems to have evolved, however... Last week during our third pulse check, we noticed two major changes from the first round. Before, only 14% strongly disagreed that news coverage was over-exaggerated. Now it has increased to 22%. Additionally, 32% of people used to somewhat agree that coverage was over-exaggerated. That number has ...since dropped to 24%. It's interesting to see how attitudes have shifted as this #pandemic progresses.

The #covid19 nightmare is far from over. We have been working hard to provide you all with rich and insightful data about U.S. consumer's behaviors and attitudes towards this #pandemic. The past few reports we noticed that many were taking strong action, but a lot were still living their usual lives. However, it is now that people are realizing that this situation is unfortunately far from over. When will this end? Once again, we'd like to thank #CarrieShea and... #MaryCooper from IRI for their help in this report! We will continue to bring you glimpses into how this issue is evolving. Make sure you are following us here and on our LinkedIn page to keep up to date. We look forward to sharing data from our next pulse check soon. As always, please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or feedback. Until then, #staysafe. https://medium.com/@rastisl/when-will-this-end-78736bb94a8d

I originally wrote this article just as COVID-19 started to change our lives. It was meant to be a helpful advice for #B2B #startups like ours, who look for cre...ative ways to access growth capital. As investment flows continue to seize up, this approach may now be valuable even to those startups who hail from traditionally well-capitalized tech hubs. These are stressful times for startups, but let's remember that times like these ultimately lead to new opportunities for innovative companies. Just hold on tight, do what you need to do, and get through it!

It's finally here! The moment you've been waiting for... We hope you are all doing well amidst everything going on in the world. Over the past few days, we have been sharing glimpses of interesting findings from our second #covid_19 study. Today, we'd like to share with you the full report. We'd like to thank #CarrieShea and #MaryCooper from IRI for their help in this report. We are confident that you will find these results as fascinating as we do!... Make sure you are following us here and on our LinkedIn page to keep up to date on the latest reports. We look forward to sharing data from our next pulse-check soon. Until then, #staysafe. https://medium.com/@rastislav.ivanic/sinking-in-54e37204c161

People have been panicking over food due to #covid19, so we were intrigued as to how people's eating habits have changed (or not). We found that most people are eating at home, eating healthy, and are even rationing their meals, among other things. There are, of course, those who are not doing anything differently. Perhaps this will change soon? Given that there are many areas in the U.S. that are going on #lockdown, we imagine that people's behaviors may change even more drastically in our next study. Stay tuned for the full report coming to you within the next few days! Until then, don't forget to like us here on Facebook and follow us on LinkedIn.

Something that we were interested in finding out during the second wave of the #covid19 study was people's eating habits. One question we asked were their take-out/delivery behaviors pre and post #coronavirusoutbreak. We saw that previously, only about 20% of our respondents would never order take-out or delivery. However, due to the issue at hand, that number has increased to 50%. We suspect that it could be due to people being scared of ordering food that is prepared by an unknown person.

Our team has been extremely concerned with #covid19. We have been diligent in practicing social distancing and following guidelines from officials. We were curious to see if others were doing the same, and it looks like most people are being just as cautious as we are. About 90% of our respondents said they practice #stayinghome , #socialdistancing and #washinghands. Almost as many of our survey respondents said they are trying to keep clean environment and observe other heal...thy habits. About 70% reported they are stocking up and practicing #selfquarantine. Interestingly, about 50% respondents report that their eating habits are more healthy. If you are wondering how many people carry on as usual, about 1/3 of respondents consider living their lives more-less as normal. Only about 5% said that they have not changed a single thing as a response to #coronavirus. It appears that in general terms, people are engaged and trying to do the right thing. The real question is how much endurance we have to do the right thing for a prolonged amount of time... We will track our endurance and will report back soon! #staysafe
