Have you ever purchased a yogurt, drink, cereal bar, or a frozen TV dinner because of a pink ribbon? If you have, you are one of the nearly majority of the population who has done so. According to the 20-year research, 2013 Cone Communications Social Impact Study, tracked U.S. consumers and determined that 54% bought a specific product associated with a particular cause over the last 12 months. That is an increase of 170% since 1993! The study also noted that 89% of Americans are likely to switch brands to one associated with a cause even with comparable price and quality. Ninety-one percent want even more of the products and services they use to support causes; and 88% want to hear how companies are supporting social and environmental issues.
