FALSE.
In the last two years a generation of teenagers
has emerged, and it grows dynamically :
• 300 000 osób people up to 14 years of age
• 900 000 osób people up to 24 years of age
3. THE Z GENERATION?
Born after 1995.
They live in the UE.
They live in the world of smartphones and Internet since they were born.
They are not a rebellious generation – they didn’t experience any war.
CD means ‘vinyl’ for them – that’s what parents had used.
Their sensitivity has been shaped by the Harry Poter.
The invention of the first hybrid car – Toyota Prius ‘97.
Ipod (introduced in 2001) was the most common gift for the first Holy Communion,
of course Ipad was also an option.

Digital in Their DNA
Twitter users divde their lives into two parallel worlds
– tt and real one (on/ off).
What matters is the on-line life – they often see the rela-
tions made as more true and more sincere than relations
in the real world.
They find friends online and share same passions and
interests with them. They want to meet different people
on TT than in real life.
6. powered by:
Twitter users communicate directly with their idols –
requests for concerts in Poland, requests for Following
the idol (6 degrees of separation -> one click).
They communicate in the Polish / English manner –
fluently moving between languages in the content
of their tweets. They have friends outside of Polish TT.
They resonate with the global trends and react quickly
to global hashtags.
World without limits
7. powered by:
They are present on Twitter from morning till night.
They tweet about everything that happens during
the day (stream of consciousness).
Simultaneously they watch tv, comment on the TT
and lead a conversation about #mycrush.
‘Instant’ activities – everything happens at once.
They comment on all that is here and now.
Multitasking
8. powered by:
Future
They are concerned about the future: finding a job,
finding themselves in adulthood. Their attitude to life is
dominated by pessimism.
Terrorism. War???
They’re socially engaged. Open to helping others.
Completely selflessly.
There is no consumerism on TT –
very few conversations revolve around brands.

some a special event or express admiration for the the idol)

Why is there no brands?
Brands are not active on TT in communication to this segment.
Brands are arrogant – they do not fit into the GenZ communication tone.
This land is waiting to be discovered.
27. Find their own communication tone
using significant/ viral ##
Follow twitter users – expressing recognition
Contests and giving out
Using influencers
