How Marketers Can Earn Gen Z’s Attention in an Omnichannel World

As college campuses reopen across the country, members of Gen Z overwhelmingly report a desire to participate in activities they’ve missed. Students are looking forward to “renewing live interactions and connecting with one another outside of their screens,” says Mark Walker, CRO at Student Beans, a youth marketing tech company.

  • Gamification for the win
  • How to hone your Social skills
  • The art of blending the lines between physical and digital
