DESCRIPTION
eet the Joneses! Any clue how they spend their daily life? Do you know what makes them tick? Mary Jones starts every day with a glass of orange juice, before waking up the kids. Ricky Jones spends 2 hours in front of the computer every day, checking his Facebook, connecting with his school friends. His sister Tracey Jones likes shopping, but does not get why her friends would eat at McDonald\'s – she is convinced that running and being a vegetarian is the key to a healthy life. Daddy, Jack Jones, is a news freak but he is pretty sceptical about the things he reads in the newspaper. The Joneses, the Smiths… They are all consumers living their everyday life. What do you really know about “the Joneses” in your target audience? Are you really connected with your consumer? Actually, the Joneses no longer exist. The consumer today has become smarter, sees through marketing actions, has a mix of different opinions and meanings and changes his mind very quickly. While the everyday life of the Joneses used to be predictable and easy to understand, the consumer today has become difficult to grasp. This new consumer calls for new ways of marketing.
