Marketing to Millennials Top Trends and Ways to Reach This Elusive Group

Editor's Notes

  • #2: I like to turn things upside to see if that allows me to find fresh insights.
  • #25: Krispy Kreme Video
  • #26: In 2009, Yelp became one of the first apps to use augmented reality. Augmented reality uses your phones camera to show virtual items the real world. With Yelps Monocle, you can hold your phone up and survey where you are. The app will respond by giving you reviews for restaurants or other businesses in that area. As you move your phone around, different restaurant/bar/coffee shop locations will pop up. Likewise, on the screen you can read reviews, see how well it was rated, the distance from where you are and what kind of food it is.
  • #29: This story starts with a DQ employee who tweeted how she wasnt looking forward to Free Cone Day at the DQ where she worked. So, DQ social (barkley) saw that as an opportunity to make sure this one employee had the best day ever. They did so by sending her tweets each hour with funny giffs and videos. By the end of it, she said DQ had made her have the best shift ever.
  • #42: On April 30th, Taco Bell made an announcement to all of its Twitter followers telling them that they would be joining Snap Chat--a popular Millennial application that allows users to send pictures that self-destruct 10 seconds after the receiver opens it. Taco Bell used it as a way to connect with their consumers on a platform that they frequent. They used Snap Chat to announce the return of the Beefy Crunch Burrito would be returning to its restaurants. The response from followers was huge as they felt they were getting secret, first-hand information before anyone else. Key with Millennials.
  • #50: Freebirds is a Mexican QSR very similar to Chipotle. On its Facebook page, during March Madness, the brand started something called March Badness where customers are rewarded for their failed brackets which is a nice change compared to most brands that only reward for winning brackets.
  • #55: When the video went live, it crashed the DSC server. Once it was back up, Dubin enlisted a team of friends and contractors to help him print labels and pack boxes by hand in a warehouse to fill the 12,000 orders that arrived in the first 48 hours. In the last year, then number of full-time employees has increased to 24; three types of blades are now sold; and a new product called shave butter is sold in addition to razors. Dubin wont say the companys revenue or number of subscribers, but had a 9.8 million investment in October from Venrock that expects DSC to compete with Gillette.
