27. LET’S SEE MY GENERATION ON GOOGLE
• IMAGE SEARCH: MILLENNIAL
28. IN MY SHOES…
To be a millennial is to constantly hear about how awful your generation is.
And to feel the need to agree, kind of politely.
Because you want that person to like you.
31. MILLENNIALS AT WORK
• Want to do something that is challenging
• Many millennials don’t think their skills are utilized
• Want to work for a purpose/cause
• 6 in 10 millennials said a cause is the reason they choose their job
• Want to contribute to the greater good
39. TECH BOOM
• Heavy researchers—want to look something up and prove the truth
• Natural skeptics—like to find it out ourselves, because we usually can
in seconds (even on the go from our phone)
• Most educated generation– formally and with current resources
44. OUTBOUND MARKETING IS OUT
• Each person absorbs around 2000 outbound marketingmessages per
day. What’s our response?
• Creative ways to block: caller ID, spam filtering, TiVo/DVR, satellite
radio, NetFlix, Spotify, etc.
• Millennials are most likely to follow these trends
48. INBOUND MARKETING IS IN
Millennials are most loyal to businesses that improve their customers’
lives with informative content.
• “How to” information, especially with live video
• Industry buff-thought & leadership expertise
• Brand Ambassadors/User Generated Content
50. TACO BELL
• Started millennial “Word of the Day” campaign, to speak
millennials language
• IDEA: People ages 18 to 34 will perk up when hearing or reading
words that could have come from the mouths of their peers, as these
messages warrant comfort and trust.
