Despite the economic downturn, more consumers are spending their money on brands that have reputations for social responsibility, according to the third annual Edelman Good purpose consumer study. Two out of three respondents (67%) said they would switch brands if a similar brand supported a good cause, and 57% said a company has earned their business because it's been doing its best to support good causes. Consumers want brands to go beyond the traditional limits of donating money to a cause or launching a CSR program: They want brands to be fully invested in social responsibility and to integrate these values into their day-to-day operations. Consumers are weary of greenwashing and want companies to exercise more transparency than before. Announcing that your company or client is green is not enough—communicators must show consumers that their companies are serious about being socially responsible.
