Half a Dozen Consumer Trends for 2009

Link: http://www.trendwatching.com/trends/halfdozentrends2009/

December 2008 | Yup, it’s that time of the year again: time for endless predictions of what’s going to happen in 2009, most of which are rather dark and gloomy with economies around the world going downhill. Fortunately, there are still plenty of trends out there that are begging to be applied profitably, both now and long-term.

and they consist of...
1. "Nichetributes" (low cost, practical tributes to the zeitgeist)
2. "Luxyoury" (in 2009, YOU define what constitutes luxury)
3. "Feedback 3.0" (think we've reached full transparency?)
4. "Econcierge" (savings are the new green)
5. "Mapmania" (why maps are the new interface)
6. "Happy Ending" (the silver lining of every downturn)

Well worth the continued read...Enjoy!
I suspect it will be worth bearing these in mind when pondering the 2009 strategy, and beyond...
