Youth Marketing Concepts!

•  Two key drivers: the need to belong and the need to be significant

•  Content vs. Context:

The king is dead: content | product | technology

Long live the king: context | social | packaging | mobility

The Ptolemaic Center of the Universe

•  The new consumer (youth) don’t buy things, they buy what things can do for them. Apply this same concept to your marketing.

ME! (and my friends)

Making Brand Marketing Relevant to Youth!

•  You can’t fake cool. Don’t be the “awkward dad trying to be hip”. Don’t look desperate in your social & new media efforts. Be real, “act your age” and play to your strengths.

•  Brands need to think creatively and artistically, youth are attracted to quality communication that is smart and creative.

•  Offer real innovation. They relate to and see themselves as innovators, and aspire in life to do great things. They relate to innovative brands and marketing (Apple/Google).

•  Ease off pushing the brand logo. It’s not about you—it’s about them, and who they relate with (see Naomi Klein’s No Logo). Your brand is your context, not your content.

•  There’s zero tolerance for BS. It’s a brand death sentence for the youth market. Be honest, transparent, authentic and respectful of their intelligence.

•  Don’t be a greedy pig (or be perceived as one). Give back, and when you give back don’t pay lip service to your efforts to be green, support charities etc. If you present yourself as a “white hat”, live the altruism and make it a real part of your company/brand culture.

More than ever, perception is reality. BUT ALSO, REALITY IS REALITY.

In youth parlance, keep it real.
