Your future awaits
Have you seen the Pew Research Study of the Millenials, the term given to the generation of teens and 20-somethings who are making their passage into adulthood at the start of this new millenium?
It’s worth a few minutes of your time, but for those of you too strapped to check it out, here’s some of the general findings that may help you focus on that target:
- Millenials are more ethnically and racially diverse than Boomers…
- They tend to be less religious and less likely to have served in the military…
- They will probably be the most educated generation in American history…
- Even with setbacks from the Great Recession, they are more upbeat and confident about their own futures, and the future of our country than their parents…
- 75% have created a personal profile on a social marketing site…
- 20% have posted a personal video online…
- and yes, you are seeing more tattoos: 40% sport one.
It’s always tricky trying to cram millions into any sized box, but this is a fascinating study.
If you can’t spend time with it now, print it and save it for your next flight or vacaction.
These are the listeners/viewers of our future.
