WHAT’S A CONSCIOUS CONSUMER?
A consumer that uses the power of their purchase to effect positive social change. They are now far more than just conscious – they’re warriors and their weapons are their amplified voice and their wallet.
They’re demanding that corporates partner with non-profits to solve societal problems, and they’re voting at the checkout by buying those brands doing good, and boycotting those that are not.
ABOUT THE CONSCIOUS CONSUMER REPORT
The research report, conducted in September 2020 by Di Marzio Research, reveals a substantial increase in conscious consumerism. This manifests in changed behaviour including preferencing brands that have a good reputation for social responsibility and on the flipside, boycotting those that don’t. It shows beyond doubt that Australians do not expect government to fix societal problems – they want corporates to step up and do more.
The research exposes a deep sense of disappointment and distrust in corporates regarding their obligation to - and investment in – society. It signals to corporates that if they do not embrace their responsibility, consumers will walk away.
Why is this good news for non-profits? Corporates will need to partner with you, to effect swift and demonstrable social change.
We knew this information was too important not to share, so we gathered our closest allies who share our philosophy of empowering non-profits to Do More and Be More through the power of collaboration. Because of their support, we’re able to make this report freely available to all changemakers.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
We took to the streets to gain further insight into why this movement has grown so rapidly. They were of course empty, so we gathered on zoom. Watch what Baby Boomers, Gen X and Gen Y say about their conscious consumerism, the research results and the effect of COVID-19.
The Generations
Understanding research requires knowledge of the different generational groups and the events that shaped their attitudes and behaviour.

We hope this research arms you with the compelling statistics you need to confidently approach corporates for partnership & sponsorship collaborations in 2021. However, statistics alone won’t guarantee success, you need to be equipped to partner.
We know, from 20+ years of matchmaking over $40m in partnerships, that there are two levels of readiness. The first is organisational readiness and the second is partner readiness. If you’re wondering where your organisation sits, give our Readiness Q&A a try (no cost, no strings, no spam). A green score means you’re primed, amber means you have work to do and red means stop!
We’re available to chat through your results so you’re not left stuck at the traffic lights.
