Marketing to Millennials - Brazil - December 2014
Introduction
 
“Companies that are successful among Millennials are those that take into consideration the multifaceted character of this demographic group. Although they are between the ages of 20 and 30 and the fact that they’ve had similar life experiences, there are significant differences of preference and habits between younger and older, married and single, their online activities, views on brand actions, advertising and promotions, as well as their opinion toward their professional career and personal finances.”
-Renata Pompa de Moura, Head of Research – Brazil
