Millennials and Baby Boomers are two target groups with strong spending power and influence that are highly coveted by marketers.  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.  On the other hand, Baby Boomers are also a very important audience to reach.  According to CNBC.com,  Baby Boomers have 2 ½ times the discretionary spending power of the coveted 18-34 age group and their spending is growing at a pace that is leaving younger generations far behind.

Discover how top marketers have launched successful marketing programs that appeal to Millennials and Baby Boomers using multiple platforms.

MACY'S STAGES WINTER BEACH PARTY TO WOO MILLENNIALS
To build a connection with millennials-a powerful next generation of customers-and highlight Macy's fashion brands across categories and price; Macy's worked with MARC USA to stage a winter spring break promotion targeting 10 college campuses, mid-winter, in Chicago. The pilot program was designed to attract college students to shop at Macy's for all their spring break essentials.  Communications ranged from pop-up beach parties on campuses to place-based media where students see it most - (e.g. pizza boxes) to an interactive social microsite.  Find out more about this one-of-a-kind event that delivered results and developed a new bond with Macy's future shoppers.
