The Consumer Trend Canvas

Consumer Trend Canvas intro Consumer Trend Canvas intro

What is the Consumer Trend Canvas?

The Consumer Trend Canvas (CTC) is an easy-to-follow framework developed by TrendWatching that will help you unpack and understand any consumer trend*, and then apply it to launch successful, consumer-facing innovations of your own.
We’ve seen this tool generate everything from sustainability-focused savings accounts to patent-worthy plant-based seafood.
It’s as versatile as you are.

👉In case you first need some consumer trends to work with, and you have access to TrendWatching Premium, then scan the Trend Framework and its 15 Key Consumer Trends. If you're not a Premium client yet, then dive into our free MakeShift publication.
