Not so long ago, from Monday to Friday, many consumers went to offices where they engaged in their “work life” activities. Then they went home, where they spent time immersed in their “personal life” activities. On weekends, they did chores and went shopping. Advertisers could count on this as the status quo, until the pandemic hit.

This change triggered a fundamental, and now permanent shift in how we spend time online – and created the Workday Consumer.
