Our shopping habits have changed, there were already changing but the pandemic has fast-tracked this. With the rise of next day delivery, easy returns and the ability to shop as and when you like online shopping has become a convenience in our lives.

Social Media Shopping or Social Shopping is where social media and eCommerce come together. From a business point of view, you’ll be directly advertising to potential customers and from a customers point of view, you’ll be seeing products that you might otherwise not have seen.

Over the past 12 months, we’ve all had to change our shopping habits, from going to the local supermarket to booking delivery slots, from popping into the High Street to ordering online. But what will happen once the lockdown ends and more restrictions are lifted?

In under 2 weeks it is hoped that local businesses will be allowed to open. This includes non-essential retail, hairdressers, and pubs, restaurants can serve food and drink outside. This is hopefully the start of High Streets recovering and small businesses getting back on their feet.
