Take-at-home tests are losing popularity
For years, take-at-home tests like Ancestry and 23andMe soaring in popularity. They’ve flown off the shelves and through the mail as presents for Christmas, Mother’s and Father’s Day, birthdays, and every holiday between. But Ancestry and 23andMe have seen a sales plummet this year.
Take-at-home tests boast heartwarming reunification stories with beaming newly-related families and fulfilled dreams. Carefully crafted television and social media ads intrigue us into scratching the itch of curiosity to find our forgotten ancestry. Some companies even promise to find the key to weight loss or determine the risk of a certain disease.
But take-at-home tests have recently seen a dark side. They potentially upheave families by unearthing buried family secrets. They’ve been the center of countless scams. Privacy concerns are continuing to rise over how genetic information is stored, who has access to such information, and how such information is used. Customers have rightly become wary.
Trying to keep up with their previous success, Ancestry and 23andMe are currently working to find new niches to lure in new or old customers.
