The most talked-about brands—by Gen Z
Traditional youth brands are no longer finding a seat at the “cool table.”
That’s according to a new study by Engagement Labs, which studied the conversation patterns of teens, or Generation Z. The group is expected to account for 40% of all consumers by 2020.
The study “Gen Z: The TotalSocial Generation,” reveals that Gen Z is highly talkative about brands. They have 13.4 conversations about products and services on average each day, one-third more than the 9.9 conversations among people 21 and older.
“They are talking more face-to-face about products and services as well,” said Ed Keller, CEO, Engagement Labs. “We are also seeing major shifts from the teenagers of five years ago, indicating that Gen Z is a very different type of generation, with long-term implications for marketers.”
iPhone and Apple are the two most talked about brands of Generation Z, reflecting the importance of technology, connectivity, and mobility to today’s teens.
