Generation Z Influencer-Marketing to Gen Z and Making Them Loyal Customers
4 Ways of Marketing to Gen Z and Making Them Loyal Customers
Generation Z or Gen Z, usually referred to those born between the mid 90’s and early 2010’s. And, they will account for 40% of all consumers for any business by the year 2020. This number does give one reason to pause and consider: Gen Z – potential as a target market well worth exploring...
The study conducted by MNI Targeted Media Inc. focused on gaining insight into Gen Z behaviour. MNI’s report identified certain chief traits of Gen Z – excessive reliance on social media, a high esteem for social impact, the expectation of conversation, FOMO or fear of missing out, and a high degree of tolerance.
Let’s talk about four ways of how to market to Gen Z and turn them into loyal customers.
Tailor your content according to a platform
Being born in the time when social media was gaining prominence, Gen Z is highly connected and extremely comfortable with social media platforms and related technology. Ask a question, and they’re prompt with Googling or asking Alexa/Siri for the answer. They’re quite at home with switching between Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or Snapchat. However, their use of each social media platform is fairly exact. Facebook is used to receive general updates while Twitter for staying on top of the latest news. And if Gen Z wants to share what’s happening in their life, they turn to Snapchat. Instagram is for those who wish to exhibit their aspirational selves or what they’re up to through Instagram Stories.
Beginners Guide to Blogging - Part Two Monetization
Key takeaway: To tap into Gen Z’s psyche, you need to tailor your message according to each platform. This Z’ generation wants that you understand their needs and can connect with them. Your message needs to reflect its beliefs and aspirations.
Be authentic
Gen Z is socio- conscious, standing up for issues close to their heart. Whether it’s about supporting the freedom to speech or raising voice against gender discrimination, this generation cares about making the world a better place. At the same time, Gen Z, make proactive buying choices and support brands that take a firm stance on social issues (given the brand's position aligns with their own beliefs, of course). It ultimately boils down to whether the brand cares for its customers and the society.
Key takeaway: To connect with Gen Z, brands you w...
