How To
What are some examples?
Trends indicate shifts in consumption patterns.
While there may be an element of unpredictability to them, they tend to follow a pattern. There are two types of trends; cyclical and secular.
It is common for cycles to repeat itself over time. Three decades of economic growth has resulted in consumers spending more every year. These cycles are often short-lived. For example, the recession caused a drop in spending over the past decade.
Secular trends are long-term changes that occur over longer periods. The internet and mobile phones are two examples. These trends are frequently driven by changes in tastes and lifestyles, so they do not necessarily correlate to economic activity.
Online shopping is the most prominent trend. Consumers are increasingly turning away from traditional brick-and-mortar stores and purchasing goods online. The rise of eCommerce is another major trend. eCommerce has seen an increase in popularity and sales than physical retailing over the past few years.
Another important trend is the increase in social media usage. Millions of people use social media worldwide. People use online platforms like Facebook, Twitter Instagram, Pinterest, Snapchat and Instagram to share information, express their opinions, and communicate with loved ones.
A third trend is the growing use of wearable technology. Smartwatches are becoming increasingly popular, as well as smart clothing and fitness trackers. Wearable tech devices enable us to measure our health and well-being, monitor our environment, and interact with the world.
