Hulu’s new user interface allows subscribers to scroll vertically to look at different content groupings and then explore those categories via a horizontal row, compared to its current vertical scrolling that shows one entry at a time. It's much more in-line with competitors in the space and makes discovering shows significantly easier. Additionally, the platform now looks more like the other offerings in Disney’s streaming portfolio, a move that coincides with Disney's first major marketing push around its bundle grouping Disney+, ESPN+ and Hulu’s ad-supported tier together.

How can workers and managers support one another and maintain morale when everyone's remote? Laura Stude, co-founder of agency surefoot, shared a few tips in a thought leadership piece today:

• "Send a message to teammates or ask if they’re available for a five-minute call, even when it isn’t on the calendar. No agenda is needed; simply telling people you’re thinking about them and appreciate them can really brighten their days."
• "We also have teammates share their Amazon wishlist links and will often randomly send them something from it or tell them to use the company credit card to purchase a product from one of our clients while they’re testing the site."

A survey from PepsiCo checked in with consumers just before the lockdown began, and then in May about what they’re looking for in brand behavior during the pandemic. It found that 94% of Americans find empathy important in today’s society, with 56% saying brands should express it by focusing messaging on the crisis and conveying a hopeful, comforting and supportive tone (versus a humorous or emotional tone). "The key is striking that balance of tone and being authentic to what your brand stands for,” says PepsiCo CMO Greg Lyons.

Recommendation: When making business decisions on an accelerated timeline, be sure to think about what consumers need now and in the future.

Sometimes, timing can help a brand just as much as marketing. Founded four years ago by entrepreneur Samira Far, No. 2 is a toilet tissue made from bamboo, whose durable pulp eliminates the need to cut down forests. (Plus, No. 2 has a tasteful look and solves the problem of "butt crumble.") The pandemic ended up being a big opportunity for the brand: Once freaked-out consumers could no longer find their usual brand on shelves, they took to the internet—where Far’s brand was waiting. Far began seeing a dramatic sales rise on March 9, then a surge two days later. Within 10 days, every last roll had sold out.
