According to the Marketing to Gen Z Conference producer, Nan McCann, “The impact of Gen Z on consumer spending can’t be overstated. In addition to being the largest generation ever … surpassing even boomers … Z’s already control over $600 Billion in US family spending. Plus, they’re very different in attitudes and outlook from the generation that immediately precedes them, Millennials. They communicate differently and they respond to different purchasing cues. The Marketing to Gen Z Conference is designed to help marketers in almost every category understand these differences and to start now to adjust their outreach to successfully connect and grow sales and share with this cohort.”
