A lot of consumers are really feeling the pressure of the current economic situation that has affected the entire world.
There is a lot of unpredictability at hand and the current economic fears are resulting in consumers spending less.
But new research proves that is not the case when it comes down to users from the Gen Z age group. As per recent stats from Wunderkind, the general spending of consumers during periods of economic uncertainty is at an all-time low or so it may appear.
However, so many of those consumers from Gen Z who were polled proved that 78% of them were not inclined or in favor of spending fewer amounts of money. So that was a major boon to various marketers. Remember, this form of cohort gives rise to nearly $360 billion in terms of disposable income as per the stats from the study published recently.
On the other hand, another very interesting finding reported how email seems to be the most famous portal among buyers across both the US and the UK region.
As a whole, 52% of American consumers and 64% from the United Kingdom had shoppers reducing purchases on things that they found to be non-essential. And nearly 37% of those hailing from the American consumer industry were limiting spending on those things they found to be essential, as were 30% of spenders from the United Kingdom.
But 63% of those arising from high-income American backgrounds aren’t seeing the purpose to reduce spending on luxuries.
Similarly, 54% of American consumers claim they are finding out more about the best buying deals through their emails and that’s nearly double the figure of those who find a such deals through advertising on social media.
Meanwhile, in places like the UK, email is witnessed as the best channel for different types of messaging against 60% of those in the US. Additionally, 30% of those in America were open to endeavors related to text marketing, the study proved. This was in comparison to the 20% who are present in the United Kingdom.
The study by Wunderkind really opened a lot of people’s eyes. It included a total of 1000 participants with an equal distribution hailing from the US and the UK regions.
What are your thoughts on this? Did you assume Gen Z would spend more or the same despite economic fears or not?
