In fact, Gen Z is now exerting its burgeoning influence over lifestyle, work, technology, banking, consumer trends, and much more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recently, CGK President Jason Dorsey spoke with Business Insider to share <\/span><a href=\"\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Center for Generational Kinetics&#8217;<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> research on the rapidly growing influence of Gen Z on consumer spending and consumer trends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gen Z is the first digitally native generation, meaning they don\u2019t remember a time before smartphones, the Internet, and social media. This diverse, exciting, connected generation has proven much more difficult to reach and engage than other generations of today\u2019s consumers. Why? Because they eschew traditional advertising, know how to use ad blockers, are benefiting from privacy changes affecting advertising, and expect brands to jump through all of those hoops and still serve up messaging that is personalized to them. No wonder CMOs, marketers, brands, and communication professionals are having to ditch their Millennial playbooks to reach and influence this new generation of consumers at a critical time in their emergence and brand loyalty development.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic hit right in the middle of Gen Z&#8217;s most formative years. This generation-defining event will continue to shape how they look at the future, shop digitally versus in-store, pay via text, trust in cryptocurrency, and expect everything delivered to their doorstep on the same day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gen Z is already displaying <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">significant<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> signs of consumer behavioral change from trust to loyalty and embracing social causes that will define them for years to come. Our extensive, multi-year national research at The Center for Generational Kinetics has revealed that Gen Z is very interested in saving money. The majority of them have \u201cemergency accounts,\u201d want to know they are getting a good deal on products and services, and they have a very high desire for investing in their retirement and seeking employer benefits (from health insurance to pet health insurance!).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Combining Gen Z\u2019s practicality towards money (which was only strengthened during the Great Recession), their dependence on digital, and the pandemic, it is easy to see why they are already showing their divergence from other generations as consumers and consumer trend drivers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b><i>&#8220;They are a really distinctive generation with a different set of parents raised at a different time, that are coming into the world with some different views.&#8221; \u2013Jason Dorsey<\/i><\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The oldest members of Gen Z are entering the life stage in which they are exerting enough consumer and trendsetting influence to finally take the mantle as the &#8220;it&#8221; generation. This is true both for emerging and key consumer trends and even for employment trends and technology adoption. All this is happening right when many leaders report feeling like they finally understand Millennials!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, leaders are now having to switch their focus to this new generation, which is proving to be both very different and with many defining characteristics yet to be discovered. The emergence of Gen Z further into their 20\u2019s has been particularly exciting for all of us researchers at The Center for Generational Kinetics because we have been researching this exciting generation for many years. Our State of Gen Z<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> study began in 2016, and the next ten years of our work studying Gen Z will reveal many new formative moments and breakthrough trends as the generation further emerges into adulthood!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a generation born into a world marked by smartphones, the Internet, AI\/ML, and ubiquitous social media, Gen Z spends as much more time on their smartphones than many older generations did watching television at the same age. The pandemic only heightened these digitally-dependent behaviors as many parents also gave new digital devices\u2014from tablets to iPhones\u2014to their kids to help them with school as well as entertain them through this socially distanced period.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b><i>&#8220;With ample time to scroll on their phones, they digitally bonded with one another as many moved back home during the pandemic at a similar life stage.&#8221; \u2013Jason Dorsey<\/i><\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During this time of increased digital and social usage, Gen Z&#8217;s favored social media app, TikTok, showed extraordinary growth. As of September 2020, TikTok has grown by 75% and filtered into intergenerational use\u2014signaling Gen Z&#8217;s influence in leading consumer behavior which has been likened to what Millennials did with Facebook and Instagram. <\/span><b>In fact, TikTok was the most visited website in 2021!!!\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2020, The Center for Generational Kinetics released our annual <\/span><a href=\"\/generation-z-covid19-research-2020\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">State of Gen Z<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> report, where we found that the pandemic has already impacted Gen Z and their bend toward practicality with money. They have begun saving money and investing earlier than previous generations did, and they are seeking good job benefits. More than half (54%) of Gen Zers are saving more since the pandemic began, while 38% have opened an online investment account and 39% have opened an online bank account!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even with this wise financial sense, it doesn&#8217;t mean Gen Z is debt-free. On average, the oldest members of Gen Z carry student loan debt of approximately $15,000, down from previous generations, but still likely to grow as the younger members of the generation age up and more return to both in-person higher education as well as pursue advanced and terminal degrees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enter Gen Z&#8217;s influence on consumer behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research shows that in moments of economic turmoil, humans are more likely to feel nostalgia. In Gen Z&#8217;s case, nostalgia means bringing back fashions from before the days of social media\u2014and social media is eating it up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThrifting\u201d is booming in part because of Gen Zers&#8217; search for sustainable, throwback fashion\u2014including upcycling fashion\u2014which further speaks to their desire to improve the planet. What&#8217;s more, is that this sense of nostalgia and sustainability has also created a lucrative side hustle such as selling thrift store finds on apps like Depop and Poshmark.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond fashion, Gen Z is also taking their views to the workplace by seeking better benefits, higher starting salaries for almost all positions, and scheduling flexibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is an exciting time to study Generation Z as they further enter adulthood. At The Center for Generational Kinetics, we will be closely watching this generation\u2019s influence unfold and share our findings with you. Be on the lookout for our next State of Gen Z<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> study coming soon!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank you for being on this journey of research, insights, and discovery with us and Gen Z.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Combining Gen Z\u2019s practicality towards money (which was only strengthened during the Great Recession), their dependence on digital, and the pandemic, it is easy to see why they are already showing their divergence from other generations as consumers and consumer trend drivers.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":6058,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[28,31],"tags":[47,48,37,33,44],"class_list":["post-6057","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gen-z","category-trends","tag-consumer-spending","tag-consumer-trends","tag-emerging-trends","tag-gen-z","tag-research"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Generations Blog | Gen Z Influencing Consumer Spending Habits<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"CGK President Jason Dorsey on the rapidly growing influence of Gen Z on consumer spending and consumer trends.
