**The Signal: **The quarantine period turbocharged [e-commerce spend](https://techcrunch.com/2020/05/12/us-e-commerce-sales-jump-49-in-april-led-by-online-grocery/) over the past few months.

To get a view on which e-commerce product categories are currently looking attractive, the Trends team asked [ThoughtLeaders](https://www.thoughtleaders.io/) — a marketing intelligence tool — to provide us with data they’ve collected that will help you identify market opportunities.

ThoughLeaders tracks brand mentions across thousands of influencers on non-Facebook/Google ad channels, including YouTube, podcasts, newsletters, and blogs. 

To identify which DTC brands have been expanding their ad footprint, we looked at direct-response ad tests across the aforementioned channels in Q2 2020 vs. Q2 2019.
