Today’s Insight

📰 TL;DR - Gen Z this, Millennial that… the audience most marketers are really missing is Gen X. They’re on track to be the wealthiest generation in history and are the fastest-growing user base on TikTok. But only 13% feels seen in social advertising.

Here are some additional Gen X stats for you:

  • 92% use social media every day and make up 28% of TikTok’s users

  • Only 24% of TV ads feature Gen X characters

  • Trust is 30% more important to this group than younger generations when it comes to purchase decisions

  • Gen X creator posts are 75% longer than posts from Gen Z creators

💡 Insight - In chasing the excitement of younger generations with impressionable attitudes, don’t lose sight of consumers of an older age. Sure, they’ve got a different approach to purchases, but it doesn’t mean that they won’t give your brand a chance.

Competition amongst Gen Z and Millennial targeted brands is thick. By leaning into the Gen X cohort, brands might stand a chance with less noise. Plus, with trust meaning so much to this generation, you’ll make them feel valued and desired which might lead to brand loyalty.
