If brand marketers want to succeed with the Millennial consumer, they’ll need to understand and influence the trends, concerns and habits of that generation, which has an annual direct spending power estimated at $200 billion and represents 25 percent of the population. Within this presentation, Millennial research from a joint venture by Barkley, The Boston Consulting Group and Service Management Group will be revealed, which includes a wealth of knowledge on the restaurant and retail industries. The keynote will provide attendees with tools to guide their thinking for the future and help ensure they are marketing to this undeniably powerful demographic. Such tools will help measure brand consumer engagement and provide a prospective as to what’s coming next in technology that will prove relevant with Millennials. Likewise, best practices of brands that are getting it right with Millennials will be highlighted as well as those who aren't quite hitting the mark.
