My Belief In Generational Marketing
Why Generational Marketing
At the core of marketing lies a straightforward principle: portray a compelling dream that instills confidence in consumers, motivating them to invest in your brand or product.
However, the effectiveness of this approach depends on the age of your target audience. It's not merely about presenting the dream; it's about forging an emotional connection to that dream. The starting point for establishing this emotional tie varies based on the specific generation you are engaging with.
How - Generational marketing mindset
I’m a firm believe of strategizing around a generational marketing mindset. Which includes customizing and adjusting an approach to align with the distinct characteristics, preferences, and behaviors exhibited by diverse age groups.
Consider a well-established soda brand that has endured for decades. For one generation, it invokes a sense of nostalgia, while for another, it represents a novel experience. By deconstructing how the nostalgic generation responds to messages and simultaneously understanding the information needs of the new group, you can strategically position yourself for success, potentially resonating with both audiences.
This is when you can begin a strategic campaign tied together with one message: An Adventure Awaits – Embrace the Classic, Discover the New
