THE ART OF ADAPTING FOR GEN-Z

THE ART OF ADAPTING FOR GEN-Z

The advertising world is forever unfolding and adapting. It is not changing but with the thought of playing it safe. However, it depends on the brand as well. Gen-Z has entered the market and HOW!

Advertising agencies have come a long way from hoardings to reels. But there is ample moulding that the advertisers had to go through in between. To understand the bedrock of moulding content for Gen-z, one needs to get deep into what they really want to engage with. Let’s discuss it!

So, how are advertisers moulding their content to relate with Gen-z?

It is undeniably evident that the souls of Gen-z yearn to immerse themselves in content that resonates deeply, with words that weave tapestries of reliability & vulnerability. As the next-gen found joy in the art of video expression on social media, a profound shift occurred by bringing reels on Instagram. Advertisers, awakened to its captivating power, swiftly harnessed the allure of video content, intertwining their brand stories with the mesmerizing narratives created by these emerging talents. Slowly and steadily everything became reel-related. Every other brand wanted to showcase their product on the reels to get more traction from the gen-z.

What Gen-z really seeks is content that connects – a relatability that flows effortlessly, unencumbered by social divisions, embraces diverse perspectives, and exudes both aesthetic appeal and genuine authenticity. They crave the connection that fosters inclusivity, shunning any form of shame, and instead celebrate the beauty of simplicity while resonating deeply with their hearts.

Embrace kindness and you’re good to go!

Across various mediums like ads, films, and podcasts, a new era has dawned – one that embraces generosity by wholeheartedly accepting diverse tastes and perspectives. Gen-z encapsulates this sentiment with a resounding belief: “If someone finds joy in their pursuits, it is not our place to shame them.” As the old paradigm evolves, a fresh understanding emerges, one that harmonizes with the next gen’s perception of emotions, individuals, and the world at large. In a much simpler way, they care more to be cared for.

Shape content to connect!

Gen-z says a big no–no to generic & cliched content. They don’t wish to consume content that would do no good to them or in general. They want to see the brands to slow down and not rush into the future, a common mistake that brands usually make. The bold take or a sarcastic tone does wonders to grab their attention. Something that is beautiful in its own way never goes unnoticed even if the product is not boasted.

All about people!

Gen-z loves people.

When showcasing “real” people with their flaws and rawness, gen-z resonates with it. Throughout history, advertisements and films have often depicted unrealistic bodies and imposed strict standards, particularly for women, while disregarding diverse genders. However, in the 21st century, people have gradually become more accepting and embracing these differences. Consequently, content creators have become more considerate and supportive, reflecting the changing attitudes of the next generation. This shift is an absolute win-win for advertisers to connect with the Gen-Z.

Adding personal notes from fellow Gen-zs:

Look into what we feel, not what you want to make us feel.

The content has to be lighthearted and not too heavy on the heart.

Don’t throw your product on our faces. Keep it subtle, maybe?

Aesthetic, simple, & to the point.

Don’t be afraid to be bold with your product.

Funky, quirky, & brave.

Own it. However, it is.

AI vs Human

The Ultimate Content Creation Challenge: AI vs Human Writers

Hello, readers! Today I must talk about a really interesting topic: the epic battle between AI and human writers? Let’s get right into it and see who will win: will the algorithms rule supreme or will the human touch win out?

Indeed, AI has come a long way in recent years. AI-powered content generators can produce articles at breakneck speed thanks to sophisticated algorithms and machine learning techniques. They can perform extensive data analysis, identifying patterns, and even mimicking human writing styles. To be honest, it’s quite puzzling.

The truth is that great content goes beyond mere words on a page. While writing is not limited to words, it also represents an art form. It is important to establish a personal connection with the reader, arouse feelings, and develop a compelling story.

 

We, humans, excel in that area. We bring to the table our distinct viewpoints, experiences, and personalities. We add a unique personal touch and authentic voice to our writing that is difficult to imitate. When creating engaging and relatable content, that human touch can make all the difference.

Undoubtedly, AI can produce technically and grammatically sound content. Humans have the ability to think outside the box, to add humour or wit, and to modify their writing style to suit various audiences, but occasionally it lacks that creative spark, that unexpected twist, that makes readers go, “Wow!”.

After all, we are adaptable beings.

Additionally, writing is about developing trust as opposed to just communicating information. Readers are attracted to authors who share their personal issues and offer honest solutions. Humans are excellent at developing rapport and gaining trust, whereas AI may find it difficult to create lasting relationships.

Of course, being a human writer is not all unicorns and rainbows. Additionally, we are limited. We may experience writer’s block, have trouble meeting deadlines, or simply have a bad day. Artificial Intelligence can work continuously, not take breaks or holidays. It works nonstop to create content.

In the end, though, I think there is room in this vast content landscape for both human and AI writers. Our differences and similarities can strengthen each other. We can benefit from AI by having it handle repetitive tasks, produce data-driven insights, and expedite the writing process. While this is going on, humans can add a unique touch, a sense of humanity, and a touch of creativity.

Therefore, my dear readers, fear not, for although AI may be a potent tool, the human content writer still has a crucial role to play. Let’s combine the best of both worlds and keep producing amazing content that engages and motivates. The conflict may continue, but everyone who is involved will ultimately win.

The Pen Powerplay – Duel between the Reader’s Writer and the Buyer’s Writer in Advertising

The world of advertising! Well, when it comes to writers in this field, you can often find two distinct types: the reader’s writer and the buyer’s writer. Let me break it down for you in a more conversational way.

So, a reader’s writer is someone who focuses on captivating and engaging the audience through their writing. They craft compelling stories, use humour, and employ creative language to grab the reader’s attention and keep them hooked. Their main goal is to entertain and connect with the target audience on a deeper level. You could think of them as the wordsmiths who know how to make people stop and pay attention to the message being conveyed.

On the other hand, a buyer’s writer takes a more strategic approach. They understand the importance of persuasion and have a keen eye for what drives consumers to make a purchase. Their writing is centred around highlighting the benefits, features, and unique selling points of a product or service. They know how to create persuasive copy that nudges potential buyers towards acting. In essence, they focus on converting readers into customers.

So, imagine you’re working on a fancy advertising campaign for a new product. You need a talented writer who can craft a killer copy that grabs people’s attention. This is where the reader’s writer and the buyer’s writer come into play.

The reader’s writer is all about connecting with the audience. They have a deep understanding of the target market and know how to create engaging content that resonates with readers. They focus on telling a story, evoking emotions, and building a genuine connection. Their goal is to captivate the readers, keep them hooked, and ultimately, make them remember the brand or product being advertised.

On the other hand, the buyer’s writer is more concerned with closing the deal. They know the ins and outs of persuasive writing. Their copy is all about highlighting the product’s unique features, benefits, and selling points. They create a sense of urgency, emphasize the value proposition, and provide strong calls to action. Their main aim is to push readers towards making a purchase or taking the desired action.

Now, depending on the advertising campaign and its objectives, you might need a combination of both approaches. Sometimes, you’ll want to touch the readers’ hearts and forge a genuine connection before nudging them towards a purchase. Other times, you’ll need a more direct and persuasive approach right from the start.

It’s important to understand the dynamics of the target audience, the goals of the advertising campaign, and the brand’s overall strategy. By finding the right balance between being a reader’s writer and a buyer’s writer, you can create compelling and effective advertising copy that not only captures attention but also drives results.

So, whether you’re aiming to engage readers on an emotional level or convince them to make a purchase, having the right writer with the appropriate skillset can make all the difference in the world of advertising!

Troubles & Turbulence For Just $8!

Troubles, Troubles, Troubles! Starting at $8

So, as far as the timeline is concerned, we’re at a point wherein we are absolutely unaware of what will happen with Twitter. Apparently, one of the platforms which people use for staying updated with the world is getting some updates of its own. And it’s clearly not making everyone happy…

Everything about a $44 Billion deal suddenly seems to be going wrong. We guess Murphy’s Law applies literally everywhere. Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong and at the worst possible time. And well, go wrong, it did.

While Mr. Musk’s original idea was to bring back the freedom of expression and speech, the state of things and events that have conspired have taken a turn for, well, not the best. “Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated,” he said as he embarked on this revolutionary journey of buying it out. There were glitches, and there were some speedbumps, but in mid-2022 this deal was concluded and Elon Musk is now the owner of Twitter Inc.

Along with major lay-offs, substantial & crucial resignations and operational changes, there were some other reforms that he introduced-

  • The work-from-office routine was brought back
  • There were changes in the processes and ways in which coders work
  • There were some major changes in the management

And here’s what the consequences of this deal were-

  • A lot of celebrities left the platform
  • Deactivated and suspended accounts emerged from the abyss

Apart from these, there was an elephant in the room- The blue tick subscription.

The birdie’s blue tick subscription seemed simple at first. Wish to make your account official on Twitter? Pay an $8 fee every month. Nominal, doable and affordable.

What could go wrong, right?

Apparently a lot. What they failed to deduce is that anyone can get it and create a nightmare for bigger and medium-sized brands on the platform. This turned out to become an official way to plan malicious activities. One such instance was the Eli Lily Debacle. Eli Lilly is an American pharmaceutical company. A fake yet verified account of the same name tweeted “We are excited to announce that insulin is free now.”. People saw the name, they saw the tick and they read the tweet. This lead to a drop of 4.45% in the company stock and there was some obvious damage control. Another mishap was an account posing as banana producer Chiquita that sent a tweet- “We’ve just overthrown the government of Brazil.”

That’s not all. The table’s turned on the Genius billionaire as well. An ‘unofficial official’ account of Tesla, Musk’s automotive company, tweeted, “BREAKING: A second Tesla has hit the World Trade Center,” and another account disguised as video game creator Nintendo tweeted a picture of Mario showing his middle finger.

Soon after these setbacks, Mr. Musk made a comeback and initially dismissed this model. But looking at it as a medium to generate business, the team finally decided that

You learn from mistakes and coincidentally so does the World’s richest man. We’re all not that different. We too take time to contemplate the decisions we’ve been making all along. It’s just that ours don’t hamper the international stock market; his does.

All we can say to end this is- It was maybe a great decision, but there’s a long way to go.

A Smaller Agency Number Builds A Greater Brand

This world is a Pool of Brands. Not a pool, but an Ocean; a big Ocean of 500,000 Brands according to Nielsen Media Research.

Interestingly, there are some brands that are at the epitome of prominence and trademark, so preferred that the brand name have replaced the product they actually offer! One such name is Cadbury. Who hasn’t heard about Cadbury? We bet you have, right?

Indian Market & Indian customers have a big place for Cadbury in their hearts so when they hear ‘Chocolate’, they understand ‘Cadbury’ before anything else.

But this hasn’t been an overnight preference for people, rather decades of perseverance and passion have made it happen. Over the years, the products they deliver have evolved in quality. Along with it, the addition of an array of products, multiple collaborations, and being what we call the OG of its domain, has helped Cadbury stay at the top of its game of achieving loyal customers & lasting impression in the minds of the people. But along with Cadbury, there is the power of advertising, branding, and marketing that gives that accelerator to the decisions they have made to come up.

To what we know as a brand, it is a confectionery company that has refused to settle for sales numbers and has rather created a name that reaches even the remotest of the locations in the world, all thanks to their association with a single agency for years.

That’s true. Associating with one branding agency for a longer period of time has always been in the favour of creating a Brand and not just another Sales-Seeking Company. The big names of today have realized the power of ‘Tinka-Tinka bhare sagar’ and have given the patience to both the branding/advertising agency and the brand need to swim in what we call the Ocean.

Interestingly, when a lot of brands change their advertising agencies at the snap of their fingers, what they end up with in the end is a half-cooked, confused brand not doing any good for the customers.

Here are some reasons that state why you should not change agencies frequently:

  1. Each agency brings its own perspective to your brand because naturally, different mindsets, different approaches and therefore, a new way.
  2. With the intention of proving its creative mettle, any new agency that associates with your brand challenges the disassociated agency’s decisions made for the brand.
  3. With multiple brand associations & disassociations, the positioning and the positioning statement might get misaligned a little each time, because a new approach will always try to establish its ideology with your brand.
  4. Too much time is wasted trying to understand, collaborate, and collect/manage data all over again. Along with this, a new agency might give its hands-on research making the process redundant.
  5. Multiple hands spoil the process of creating a brand because they might end up giving their own personality to the brand, making it a deal of confusion for the people working for it.
  6. Building a brand takes time. And when the desire of hasty success makes you change agencies frequently, you may end up making monetary profits for sure but not a name, A BRAND the world remembers.
  7. More than ever, it is a deal of losses of all kinds; may it be of fiances, relationships, reputation, or the brand’s status.

On the contrary, we have always tried to maintain a long-term relationship with our brands and it has been a smooth journey with conundrums that only made us both grow, not lose anything.

The brands that have associated with us for a good time have all their points clear. Considering the growth they’ve experienced, it would be difficult in case of multiple handling of agencies.

To sum up all that they have to say about being with one agency/Rioconn for long-term:

  1. The match with the need, deadlines, and understanding of the brand commended the journey to years of service, some even for more than a decade & still going strong.
  2. More than understanding the need, educating the brand, and exceeding the expectations made the voyage count for both the brand and Rioconn.
  3. The attitude towards the brand and the proactive approach to everything keeps them going and when great results come out, they are an additional star to the constellation.
  4. The experiences of the past made Rioconn a concrete name in the Advertising agency and that fuels the adventure.
  5. Personal reputation and relations made it happen but the efforts, ability, experience, versatile ideas, and treating their business as our own keeps it going.

So when we say it’s not a one-night game, we believe it. More than the belief, we have experienced it.

When a brand is built, all it requires is time & effort without which, it is not a profitable deal. The world is moving at a ferocious pace & all the businesses are trying to relate to each other’s speed by exceeding it. The fast-paced competition makes it dreadful sometimes but with the right approach, agency, and people, topping the charts of name, fame, and profits isn’t difficult. What’s difficult however is keeping it with one with all the diligence you have.

You might lose if you are not charged to endure the journey, overcome the differences, and come on the same page with one agency. But taking it as a cumulative series of efforts with the right agency behind you, you will reach the top. And by top we mean on cloud 9 (pun intended).
