Younger generations are dominating consumerism and demanding personalized and truncated content and information. Additionally, this group has pioneered brand loyalty, so companies are competing for fleeting attention. How can you market to the new-age consumer and position your brand as an attractive option?

Footwear industry veteran and front-runner Wayne Kulkin has mastered innovation and market differentiation both in-store and online. Curating products for retail is only one aspect of the omnichannel consumer experience. eCommerce is a separate entity that requires personalizing recommendations, aligning manufacturing rates with inventory, and managing cash flow. To capture your target customer and initiate brand loyalty, Wayne recommends aligning your online and brick-and-mortar customer experiences and communicating your values and stories through social media content.
