Managing Partner Fullsix

Wednesday, October 13th - 4.00 -5.00 pm : SEMINAR #8

Topic: Digital natives, in the mind of the new consumer.

PRESENTATION OVERVIEW:

More than just changing channels, the digital age is changing consumer mindsets. Winning with consumers nowadays is about getting and finding the ‘consumer reality’. What does the consumer expect from me? Who is the consumer listening to on purchase decisions? How can I best influence the consumer? On what topics is the consumer open to hear from me? How is the consumer reacting to what I say?

Digital has most impacted our youth. Whatever their social or geographic origin, all youth are resolutely digital. New technologies impacting their lives permanently affect their choices and fundamentally change their behavior.

Better understanding of this generation is imperative on several levels: key target for many brands, youth are also relevant levers for all others, allowing to penetrate the inner circle (family and friends) but also anticipate the behavioral changes that will guide future consumers in all markets

We will examine the impact of new technologies on the expectations and behaviors of today’s youth. How their  personal and social identity, their relationship to space and time, and their relationship to society and brands is changing. The analysis provides marketing insight and operational ideas that brands can be used in planning.
