Does your target audience include Millennials and Generation Z?

What adjustments should you make to your video content for them?

More likely, you’ll realize that your target audience will involve customers born 1981-2000. Compared to the past, these two generations were mired with social media and digital technology growing up, making video marketing strategies crucial in capturing them for your business. Here are some ways you can connect better with these demographics in your customer base in your video content.

Start by considering having testimonial videos of your product’s success. One of the key things that these younger generations look for is authenticity and when they see that previous customers have enjoyed your products, it encourages them to have a longer look at your company. Of course, you might have to offer an incentive for them to put up a video of a product review, but it sends a positive message to your potential customers when they see others raving about their purchase.

Try incorporating animations into your video content. You are speaking to a target audience that likely grew up watching Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon and studies have shown that Millennials are 80% percent more likely to watch a video while researching for a product. Whether you opt for a testimonial, how-to, or product demonstration of your product/services, cartoons can help you better connect with these younger generations.
