Tip #602- Marketing to Millennials & How 5 Brands are Adjusting to Earn Millennial Loyalty

More and more brands are reevaluating their marketing strategies, product offerings, and brand experiences in an effort to earn Millennial loyalty. However, marketing to Millennials continues to be a moving target. But for many brands a shift towards Millennial marketing is worth the risk if they can earn the loyalty of the world's largest and soon to be the most spending power generation.


1.) Target "deemphasizes" canned and bagged goods in their stores.

In an effort to appeal to Millennial consumers, Target will focus more on organic, fresher, and healthier foods. Products that are processed will be given less exposure and promotions. According to Fortune, Target's goal is to "look less like Walmart and more like Whole Foods."                       
2.)   Starbucks unveils an alternative music plan.

Earlier this year, Starbucks announced that they will no longer sell CDs in their stores. Starbucks has decided to appeal to Millennial consumers with a streaming service. In a partnership with Spotify, Starbucks consumers can now curate playlists and share between the 16 million My Starbucks Reward Members, baristas and Spotify subscribers whether they are in-store or on the go.
