trendwatching.com Presents 10 Crucial Consumer Trends for 2010

Amsterdam (ots/PRNewswire)

trendwatching.com, one of
the world's leading trend firms, has just released its '10 Consumer
Trends for 2010'. From 'urban pride' to 'forced sustainability', next
year will bring a bonanza of opportunities, as even cautious
consumers crave pragmatic or exciting innovations.
The full, free briefing can be found at
http://www.trendwatching.com/ 2010/. A summary:
1. BUSINESS AS UNUSUAL | Forget the recession: the societal
changes that will dominate 2010 were set in motion long before we
temporarily stared into the abyss. And even when the downturn ends,
there won't be a return to 'business as usual'.
2. URBANY | Extreme urbanization will lead to more sophisticated
and demanding consumers around the world. Urban culture is THE
culture.
3. REAL-TIME REVIEWS | Whatever new product or service gets
launched in 2010, it will be reviewed in real time. Transparency
tyranny (or triumph) is upon us.
4. (F)LUXURY | With status symbols becoming more fragmented,
luxury is whatever consumers want it to be in 2010.
5. MASS MINGLING | Online lifestyles are actually fueling real
world meet-ups, shattering all predictions about a virtual and
socially isolated future.
6. ECO-EASY | In 2010, corporations and governments will force
consumers to be more green by restricting the alternatives. Say
goodbye to consumer choice.
7. TRACKING & ALERTING | Tracking and alerting are the new
search. Next year, consumers will further expand their sphere of
control.
8. EMBEDDED GENEROSITY | Generosity as a trend will further adapt
to the zeitgeist, leading to more pragmatic and collaborative
charity.
9. PROFILE MYNING | With hundreds of millions of people now
nurturing their online profiles, 2010 will be about consumers making
money from these profiles, from intention-based models to digital
afterlife services.
10. MATURIALISM | 2010 will be even more opinionated, outspoken
and raw than 2009; thank the anything-goes online world for that.
Which brands will be equally daring?
