5 Tactical tips to reach a millennial audience l Ep 91
Focus On Trials and Use
Millenials think that use is more important than ownership. A few decades ago, owning a car or a house was seen as a sort of social benchmark. These days, millennials are looking at their bank account and saying, “We can’t afford that!” If there’s a way to let millennials use your product without having to pay for full ownership of it, take advantage of that. Providing a cheaper alternative to buying a product will make millennials more willing to spend their money with you.
Mobile First
Millennials spend more time on their smartphones than any other generation. But if you’re a business owner, this statistic works in your favor. One of the most important things you can do when it comes to marketing to millennials is to meet them where they are. Make your ads mobile-friendly, and put them on social media platforms. Millennials aren’t going to pay a bit of attention to an ad in the newspaper or a magazine; they will notice one that shows up in their Facebook or Instagram feed.
Give Back
Millennials don’t have as much money as previous generations, so they spend a lot more time thinking about where it goes. Not just any company or product is worthy of getting some of their precious resources. So how does a company convince their millennial customers that they should spend their money with that company? One great way to attract millennial customers is to use part of your company’s proceeds to support a cause. Millennials want to see that their money is helping to make a difference in the world. Agreeing to donate a part of your proceeds to a charity or to help employ underprivileged populations can draw in your millennial audience.
Be Authentic
One of the most important things to remember about millennials is how inundated they have become with advertising. They grew up in the digital age, with advertising blaring at them everywhere from public restrooms to gas pumps. One of the best ways you can draw millennials in is to be authentic with your media outreach. You believe your product is a good one that’s worth spending money on, right? Let that genuine enthusiasm shine through in your marketing; that realness will get millennial customers’ attention.
Do More Video
It seems like every other post on social media is an auto play video. And it’s working; 64 percent of consumers make a purchase after watching a branded social video.
With video marketing being such a powerful tool, your company can’t afford to ignore it. Make video a central part of your marketing efforts. It’ll draw millennial's in, and then you have a chance to tell them why they should choose your company.
