Dear Marketers, How Badly Do You Know Me!

The conversation on data privacy, opt-in and

loyalty consumers and marketeers should

urgently have.

Dear Marketers, how badly do you know me.

US = 1,180 consumers

YOU = 310 marketers

according to the 10th Marketing Gap study by fast.MAPwww.fastmap.com

Do you understand just how little we trust you with our contact and other information?

As it comes to data privacy and opt in to receiving marketing communications, marketers underestimate by up to 100% all consumer's areas of concern.

This is how concerned you believe we are if you did any of the following after we have given you our contact details and permission to send us communications.

if you passed our contact

details to another

Did you know next year’s changes to EU opt-in requirements for data gathering mean you’ll have to ask us if we’d actually like to hear from you?

* blank stare *

Now imagine all the organisations that current send us ‘information’ contacting us and asking us if we are happy to stay on their mailing list. How do you believe we are most likely to respond?
