Generational Marketing

Generational marketing is the promotion of products to a target audience that is segmented and targeted based on the similar needs and interests of a particular generation.

Of course, a generational marketing strategy cannot be the sole and primary criteria for audience segmentation. Traditional segmentation factors - geography, income, interests, and consumer behavior - remain key attributes of successful personalized targeting. But they play an important role in the development of marketing plans because each age group receives information from different channels and sources.
Trying to reach potential customers of different ages simultaneously with the same ad or promotion usually results in a waste of budget. How do you effectively target each generation? Consider preferences, learning habits and identify needs. Keep in mind that generational theory does not take into account the individuality of each person.
