Hello Our Name Is
Millennial
Connected. Diverse. Optimists.
Overview
The Millennial generation, nearly 75 million, is quickly becoming the most influential group of
Consumers, reaching an estimated $1.4Trillion purchasing power by 2020.
This new group of Consumers, the first-born of the digital era, are relatively unattached to
organized politics and religion, linked by social media, tolerant and socially liberal, burdened
by debt, distrustful of people, in no rush to marry— and yet optimistic about their and the
country’s future.
This research review is an effort to understand these Consumers, their economic impact and
shopping behaviors.

techniques research has shown to be effective.

Brittany’s Story (prefers Britt)
Britt loves her family and her job as a product director at
a mid-size wellness company.
She’s a confident, emerging leader and highly thought of at
her company. As a result, she spends a significant amount of time
traveling with the Sales team either landing new accounts or
retaining at-risk accounts.
When Britt is on the road, she uses technology – Facetime,
Skype, Facebook and Texting -- to stay connected to her family and
friends. It helps her feel less isolated from the important people in
her life.
Britt is an avid online and cause-driven purchaser, spending
her purchasing power with companies and on products that give
something back to the community; Target, Toms, Patagonia, for
example. She makes it to the local famers’ market every Saturday
for the freshest and most locally-grown food. She volunteers her
talents and skills at a local nonprofit that brings fresh and healthy
food to inner city residents.
Britt dreams of starting a business with her husband someday.

Christophe’s Story (prefers Chris)
Chris lives the digital high life. He loves technology. He has to
have the newest and coolest digital gadgets and loves showing them
off to his friends.
Chris is a successful software developer
who telecommutes everyday. He’s a master multitasker; streaming
music, listening to Internet radio or downloading the latest movie
while he’s coding.
Chris rents a downtown loft apartment that’s furnished with the
latest and best home theater system and every gaming system
under the sun. He has all the music and movie subscriptions and
prefers to watch TV shows over the Internet.
Chris gets easily bored with his new tech toys, especially his
phone. He’s always looking for the latest toy and pays attention to
new device and game releases. Chris frequently upgrades his phone
midway through his contract; he’s willing to pay the upgrade fee and
contract penalty to get the best, newest phone. A contract is an
inconvenience to him.
