ANA Marketing to Millennials (Members Only Conference) @ Honda

This event is over.

There are more than 75 million Millennials living in the United States today. They represent the largest living generation and the most coveted consumer group since the Baby Boom.  Millennials are early adopters of technology and heavy users of online, social, and mobile media. Millennials also tend to have shorter attention spans and are in control of the content and marketing messages they receive.  The brands that are investing time and resources in understanding and engaging with these influential consumers are the ones that are winning big.  Hosted by American Honda Motor Co., Inc., this complimentary ANA members only conference will feature sessions from leading marketers and thought leaders who will share best practices and insights on reaching the elusive Millennials audience.

MILLENNIAL CONTEXT: A NEW ENVIRONMENT FOR BRAND STRATEGY

Context is everything for creating and implementing impactful brand strategies. Your brand opportunity means looking for the right code within that context – but to get to that code, you have to understand the context of your brand, and that means developing fluency and intelligence around the audiences you're trying to reach. Brands truly exist and thrive in the context of the perceptions and perspectives that your audiences have. Any modern brand must learn to design around, and adopt, behaviors that build around the audiences of their future. In this session we'll explore new tools that are providing insight into one of the most influential cohorts of the modern brand era – Millennials. We'll walk through the Millennial Mindset and showcase new methods for creating actionable strategies and creative ideas that win big with your audience and help push your brand towards a more confident future.
