Healthy living means different things to different consumers

The importance of good health has shifted. No longer just a priority for individuals wanting a long and healthy life, it’s become a foundational necessity of society and our economies—to manage spiraling health budgets, ensure optimal workplace productivity, and ensure a healthier environment as we go about our daily lives.

Some consumers have made the concerted effort to fully invest in their well-being journey, embracing preventative measures and making active decisions to consistently support their health. Others take a more reactive approach, looking for guidance only in times of need. There are also those who uphold a squarely passive approach to managing their health, not specifically prioritizing their wellbeing. Understanding the specific disposition and path that your consumers are on and aligning the correct messaging to reach them is key.
