Identifying Millennials’ Attitudes and BehaviorsGen Re
Millennials are all around you, and they’re important to your business. However, it’s clear that this group - which numbers 2.5 billion globally - possesses specific attitudes and behaviors that call for a fresh approach to marketing financial services, especially when it comes to insurance products.
Read more from our series "Millennials in Insurance" at: www.genre.com/millennials
Ever wondered why the two hottest words in marketing today are “Millennial” and “Multicultural”?
Well the short answer is that the Millennial Generation (18-34) rules category after category and Multiculturals are their heart and source of vitality and growth.
Andy Halley-Wright, VP Planning and Research at Y&R/Bravo Miami, looks at how despite millennials coming of age in dire economic times, they are optimistic, open minded and brave. And in the home of the brave, the American Dream burns brightest in multicultural millennial hearts. Naturally various life stages and different mindsets fall between the ages of 18 and 34. In fear of over simplification, the younger cohort (18-24) are “Explorers” (4Cs) driven by the mega need of discovery while the older segment (25-34) are “Aspirers” (4Cs) motivated to make a mark and to show the world that they are making it.
"Born in a digital world, eight in 10 Millennials in America own a smartphone. They are always on, always connected – like 1 in 2 are tweeting, liking, emailing, you-tubing or whatever; while on the toilet! No generation has ever spread the word about themselves and help build or break brands like this generation. And again, Hispanics are at the bleeding edge, especially when it comes to mobile," he writes.
If “Millennial” and “Multicultural” are the two hottest words in marketing today, the two most important commandments they impart are that the marketer should “Embrace Diversity” and “Be Participatory.” Of course, that’s easier said than done.
In the fifth annual Millennial Survey, Deloitte uncovers what tomorrow’s leaders think of business today. With two-thirds of Millennials expressing a desire to leave their organization by 2020, businesses must adjust how they nurture loyalty among these young leaders. http://www2.deloitte.com/global/en/pages/about-deloitte/articles/millennialsurvey.html

CloudMade is a b2b software company. Our solutions do for in-car personalization what Nuance do for speech or what Mobileye do for assisted driving.
Drivers expect their cars to deliver the same delightful user experiences they have come to expect from silicon valley giants like Google, Apple and Uber. But as CloudMade's research shows, drivers are disenchanted by today's in-car user experiences, with Millennials in particular flocking to car sharing services today and aspiring to self driving cars tomorrow. But car manufacturers have uniquely privileged access to the drivers. They surround them with screens and dials for hours each day and their brands carry huge equity with drivers young and old. CloudMade's connected car solutions let OEMs create experiences that are smart, self-learning and designed to captivate drivers, their passengers, friends and families, fortifying the OEM's brand and helping them make the transition into the digital world

The 5 Immutable Laws of Attracting MillennialsBrent Kelly
By 2025, 75% of the global workforce will be made up of Millennials. Is the term Millennial overused? Yes, but that doesn't underscore the importance of understanding how to attract and sell to the most important generation since the baby boomers.
46% of 18-24 drivers would choose internet access over their car (NYT 2012). Wait, how is that a choice? And what does the internet have to do with car ownership anyway?
Adapted from a presentation at Kain Automotive (kaintraining.com), I explore why exactly millennials aren't enamored with the ideal of cars--and how car dealerships and brands can change their mind. Feel free to tweet me with questions (@LindseyKirchoff) or email HowToMarketToMe@gmail.com. Enjoy!

The Autolabs members work with car manufacturers (OEMs) to help them create experiences that Millennials will love.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.
