Millennials – Gain their trust, earn their spending
We already know that Millennials, or “Gen Y,” are tech savvy, connected, self-centered but, socially-conscious, and educated. And they love to spend. This makes a lot of sense, given that they grew up during one of the most prosperous and stable economic periods in American history. This makes them resilient and optimistic about their futures. Despite facing a shaky job market and a diminished value in their education, they see their future bright and full of success.
With 80 million+ strong, a current $2.45 TRILLION purchasing power, and an anticipated growth from 44% to 75% of the workforce globally by 2025, it makes sense why so many brands are interested in marketing and selling to this generation.
