4. Here we are, the Screenagers ++. Our screen-centric devices have become appendages we cannot live without, as
hyper-accelerated growth has amplified our dependency on real-time consumption, constant connectivity and an
ever-expanding universe of expectations. Our digital maturity has reached a new and higher level.
From sprint to full stride, screenagers have multiplied faster than imagined. Today, not only are there more digital
consumers, but more consumers own multiple smart devices. This is creating an array of new digital services and
experiences, and more significantly, a “multiplier effect” that is generating more business opportunities at scale
across every industry, age group and facet of human life.
While adoption of smart devices has risen, the pace has slowed as consumers become more discerning about the
quality of content, dependability of technology, ease of service and data privacy. As intelligent devices are delivering
new experiences, consumers are more selective and willing to wait for innovation - especially when providers or
usability don’t measure up to expectations.
Screenagers are now power players in a multi-billion-dollar game. The stakes are rising as communications, media
and technology companies scramble to deliver the next ‘big thing’ to keep their customers engaged. To avoid being
left in the digital dust, enterprises need both a profound understanding of what their customers want and the
expertise to deliver a safe and unique brand experience, a clear value proposition and user interaction that meets –
or exceeds – those expectations. The winners will create and sustain strong, emotional trust.
We have identified five mega-trends that are distilled and analyzed from Accenture’s 2016 Digital Consumer Survey
to help companies disrupt the status quo and connect with customers like never before.

6. Everywhere you look, eyes are angled down and
aglow in the light of a smartphone, smartwatch,
tablet or other digital screen. Screenagers not only
own more devices, they own multiple types of
devices. 86 percent of screenagers now own a
smartphone and 34 percent own a tablet and
smartphone as well as a desktop device.
From connecting and consuming digital content—
watching video, playing games and posting
pictures on social media—the Screen Age has
redefined the new normal.
With 99 percent of consumers now using mobile
apps for communication services, we observe new
types of usage— 75 percent are already aware of
mobile payment services, and 53 percent take
eLearning or online training courses via digital
devices. This is the Multiplier Effect in action:
greater scale and bigger dollars.

8. You turn on your house lights and adjust the temperature
from miles away. As you head home, your refrigerator
reminds you to stop and buy milk. Then your car plots
the fastest route to avoid rush hour traffic and
construction zones. When you arrive safely home you
watch as a drone delivers a package to your front door.
The future has never been closer and is full of promises.
As companies rush to release more and more intelligent
devices and IoT applications, consumers have yet to be
sold on their value propositions. These devices may be
“smart”, but most are not easy to use and don’t offer
clear services.
Although the next big thing is not here yet, the smart
players are working hard to get it—whatever it will be—in
front of screenagers before their competition does.

10. The life of a screenager is characterized by intensity
and immediacy. Their digital experiences need to be
agile and real-time—smooth and safe. Nothing less
will do.
Privacy and security are becoming critical priorities.
Sixty percent are concerned about privacy and
security issues, while the lack of service quality is
also causing frustration for screenagers. More than
80 percent are ready to pay extra for a better mobile
network connection and 82 percent think advertising
interruptions when watching digital content are far too
frequent.
In order to achieve high performance, companies
need to ensure safety, privacy and continuity of
service so their customers don’t get lost in

12. As screenagers become more mature, sophisticated and selective,
their wallets won’t open without good reason. 84 percent said that a
large range of products and services that work well together will
encourage them to purchase more. For now, however, they are only
planning to increase their budget by less than 10 percent because
they already have their devices, and are ultimately looking for
innovative experiences, services, features and content.
Companies need to keep screenagers at the center of their market
approach more than ever before. Knowing who their customers are,
what they like and what they’re ready and willing to pay for is critical,
and the difference between success and obsolescence.

14. Loyalty is a delicate balance to create and even harder to
maintain. While no one owns the screenager, emotional
trust is created by the right services, simplicity, identity,
quality, privacy and products. This is fundamental to create
engagement—80 percent of consumers think quality
brands will encourage them to purchase more products
and services.
Screenagers may say they love you, but they live and
breathe real-time emotions. Unless you maintain constant
brand engagement across all channels, you will quickly
lose your audience—with 73 percent ready to switch to a
new provider for better service.
Establishing and maintaining brand engagement—without

16. The Multiplier Effect: More Consumers x More Devices x More Experiences
• The constant connectivity and multi-screen is an epic shift for Companies. This impacts on how we
communicate and market to consumers. The opportunity for consumer-initiated touchpoints multiples.
• The implications for companies is how to capture the opportunity and serve the micro-moments that
can drive better consumer experience and incremental revenue.
You, Me & IoT: Smart Things Don’t Come Easy
• The use of IoT is growing every day to connect consumers to the services and products, and bring
companies closer to their consumers. We are looking at a future where it will be prevalent in everyday
life.
• Companies need to put the consumer at the heart of IoT, give control of devices and data to
consumers.
Lost in Transmission: Gap in Privacy, Security & Service Quality
• Consumers understand and see the data risk. But, they will share data if they trust the company.
• So, it is important to build and implement a clear framework that will keep consumer data safe and
reassured, while allowing companies to conduct their business

17. The Way You Make Me Feel: Screenagers Demand More or Nothing
• Screenagers prefer to share as much information as possible. Likewise, from companies they expect
detailed information before making a decision. They prefer to be seen as individuals and expect
customization in content and experience.
• Companies need to think long term and plan on “Return on Relationship” rather “Return on
investment”.
The Brand Engagement: Quality, Simplicity & Emotional Trust
• As consumers move seamlessly between screens to complete tasks, companies need to re-imagine
the user experience. They need to create seamless multi-device, multi-channel experiences from the
time users engage.
• Screenagers don’t have the patience to wait for a second or third version to get it right; loyalty is
heavily determined by their experience, so executing flawlessly based on user insights is the key to
building and maintaining that loyalty.
