When a crisis unfolds and upends the world your customers live in, the marketing playbook that worked yesterday stops working today. Consumer priorities shift overnight, budgets tighten, and every campaign you had planned suddenly needs a second look. Brands that respond with sincerity earn lasting trust; those that misread the moment get blacklisted long after the crisis ends.
