How to market to millennial parents and support their families

This a special shopper education & assistance report for consumer goods companies, service providers and retailers on marketing to millennial parents and providing services and support to their families.

Executive Summary

Parenting is nothing new, but unlike previous generations, as digital natives are entering the cohort they are influencing the general needs and expectations around parenting lifestyle. There is growing demand from millennial parents for play-focused experiences that create child-parent bonding activities, plus there’s a desire to easily access experts at all stages of parenting.

Savvy companies are not only capitalizing on the opportunities as brands and retailers step up as family partners but they are also creating innovative solutions that help them reach out to this segment of consumers and influence purchasing decision making. Specifically, they are using social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook to engage with these audiences, and they are leveraging mobile apps to deliver relevant content to those who want it most.
