Like, really. They do.
Gen Z falls right behind millennials as the second largest podcast listening generation.
The generation born between 1997 to 2013 accounts for more than thirty-nine million people in the U.S. And a large portion of them use podcasts as a tool for finding their next favorite product or service.
According to emarketer.com:
-61% visited a company’s or product’s website
-61% wanted the product or service
-56% gather more information about a company or product
-44% used a promotional or discount code mentioned in the podcast
-43% purchased a product of service
-42% recommended a product to a friend or family member
These stats alone beg the question: “Should we use podcasting as a vehicle for driving brand awareness this year?”
With the oldest Gen Zers only a few years away from their 30s, a savvy business owner/nonprofit executive would know to catch this generation as they’re entering their peak earning years.
