“US teenagers and young adults spend almost
17 hours a week on the Internet, six times the
national average, yet advertisers continue to
allocate a disproportionate share of teen-
related ad spending to traditional media.”
McKinsey Quarterly, “Marketing to Teens Online”
A Very Different Generation
• Teens spend 60% less time
watching TV and 600% more time
on the Internet than their parents
• They watch an average of 40
YouTube videos a month
• They text over 50 messages a
week
• 85% have Facebook profiles
Upbeat But Nervous
• Nearly half of Millennials say their stress level is “very
high” or “high.” They feel the world is getting more
complicated.
• But they’re optimistic; 71 percent believe they can
personally achieve the American Dream
• Half define the American Dream as “Simply being
happy, no matter what I do.”
• 30% expect to own a business one day.
• They name their computer as the #1 product they
cannot live without.
Connected
• 97% of college students own a computer
• 94% own a cell phone
• 60% own a portable music device
• They use three to five technology items at the
same time
• In 1965, 80% of people 18 to 49 could be
reached with three 60-second TV spots
• In 2002, 117 prime-time ads were needed to
achieve the same result

A Language of Their Own
Phail
Extraordinary lack of ability: “Did you hear about the guy in Japan who
got demoted for looking at porn at work? That's pure phail, dude.”
Brosef/Broseph
Generic nickname for friends: “Whazzup, brosef?”
Schnasty
So nasty you don’t know how else to describe it: “Damn! That garbage
disposal smells schnasty.”
Online Always

do you stay in contact with in your

Notas do Editor

  1. Our friend networks are evolving to become increasingly digitised. WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? Globally we now maintain as many contacts digitally as we do face to face. Digital channels of communication mean that we maintain much larger friend networks, not only by meeting new people but by retaining contacts with people that in a world before the web and mobile we would have lost touch with. Social networks and blogs are talking this on further connecting us with people we have never even met before. This means we can share influence and opinion with a wider circle of people than ever before. Digital connections make it easier to influence than face to face, both in actually doing it and the frequency that we can: text, links to content, frequency of contact, no need to physically meet etc
  2. Great slide capture of some of the key players so far
  3. This revolution is emphasised in the number of channels consumers now have to share and publish opinions. Social Media has provided consumers with the opportunity to contribute and publish opinions like never before. This has moved billions of thoughts online
  4. Consumer demand is certainly there. In a late 2007 report, Forrester Research said that user ratings or reviews are the most desired website functionality by US Internet users, with 64 percent requesting the function. Special offers and coupons were second at 61 percent, followed by product or price comparison. Interestingly, games and user-generated content were lowest on consumers’ wish list, which indicates that marketers’ fascination with these engagement tactics has relatively little customer value. Avenue A | Razorfish identified user reviews as the resource that was most frequently used by US online shoppers. And a 2008 survey by the e-tailing group said that 65% of US online buyers read customer reviews before making a purchase decision.
  5. EVERY category is influenced by consumers content and opinions online Entertainment is top. Then technology. Then travel. All categories we experience all the time, are subjective, personal to us and do not need expert knowledge HOWEVER – even expert, low interest categories such as property, utilities and financial services have seen a massive quantity of reviews moving online. What it shows is that all companies and brands regardless of product category are impacted by the Influence economy and all need to be transparent, open and actively present on the web and in social environments.
  6. Lots of new companies each day
