He is concerned with aging nature of the customer base of his product and has noted that whilst generation Z (< 25 years old) is a small proportion of his customer base they have a large average spend per customer. He therefore believes that if Leisure Suit Lounge Wear can successfully advertise to younger customers, he could increase profitability and protect the company from a shrinking market share. However, he is unsure of how to advertise to generation Z. His niece has suggested partnering with TikTok influences whereas his sales manager has suggested either a traditional TV advertising campaign or a targeted campaign using internet advertising. In particular he would like to know if social media is a better prospect for advertising to generation Z than traditional advertising and if investing in partnering with influences is an effective method of increasing sales among a younger demographic.
He has asked for you help in applying evidence-based management to improving his sales in the targeted demographic.
