Gen Z and how you can reach them.
For Gen Z, the most Internet-dependent generation in history, the physical and digital worlds have begun to blend with one another in a way no generation before them has ever envisioned. This presents opportunities and challenges for today’s brands, but to reach Gen Z you must first understand their needs.
Being online.
Each generation views the Internet differently, but Gen Z is in a league of their own. Gen Z isn’t just dependent on the Internet, the Internet plays a vital role in their lives. Traditional means of accessing the Internet are not enough for them. They want new ways of interacting with the web, more devices to be connected, and predictive technologies to know them better than they know themselves. Don’t be afraid of using new channels to reach Gen Z. Refrain from entertaining Gen Z at your own peril, regardless of where or how you’re communicating with them.
Buying online.
Gen Z wants to experiment with new channels of communication, but not when it comes to purchasing—they prefer a blended model of digital and physical when it’s time to spend money. Authenticity is still important to Gen Z, and relevant content is still king.
Building online.
Gen Z believes in building their education, career, and personal brand online, and they have the highest aspiration to entrepreneurship of any generation. They will increasingly challenge the traditions rooted in the analog world. Gen Z’s preference for blending physical and online businesses is not an anomaly, and carries over to their own plans for starting a business. To them, every company is a technology company. Gen Z gravitates toward a unique mix of trends, which both embrace the future and respect certain aspects of the past. Communicating with this generation successfully requires taking the time to understand those nuances then acting accordingly.
