Yard Butler: Branding for Millennial Gardeners
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) May 09, 2017 -- Lewis Tools, a multinational leader in developing lawn and garden tools under the Yard Butler™ brand, showcases new packaging and branding aimed at millennial consumers today at the National Hardware Show. Millennials are now America’s largest and most racially diverse generation representing over $1 trillion in direct buying power and, with their use of social media, have become a huge influence on older generations as well. They are the biggest consumer demographic and their spending ability is just beginning to grow. Building on 60 years of developing and manufacturing innovative, quality tools for lawn care and gardening, Yard Butler’s focus is showing retailers how to capitalize on this next generation of consumers.
“Young consumers are socially aware and health conscious. They are looking for experiences and gardening offers off-line experiences that can be shared online,” explains Scott Salter, Yard Butler’s director of sales and marketing. “Now the concept of ‘farm-to-table’ can go from ‘patio or yard to table’ and home growers get the satisfaction of being more connected to their environment.”
User experience has consistently come up at the top of many surveys regarding millennial attitudes towards shopping with Eventbrite reporting that 78% of millennials would rather spend money on an experience than things. Retailers can cash in on this by showcasing how various products come together to help shoppers build the life they want through specific projects that fit their lifestyles.
“Millennials place a strong value on personalization and gardening is very personal, turning the outdoors into a unique oasis of color, life, and sustenance. Growing connects us to nature and showing shoppers how to be successful is one of many ways retailers can add value to their stores,” advises Dan Wright, President of Lewis Tools.
Yard Butler is located in booth #12014, listed in the show program under Lewis Lifetime Tools. See the new branding at yardbutler.com
