Abstract
With $51 billion in spending power, children and tweens represent an important
and lucrative demographic, offering companies an opportunity to build
life-long brand loyalty. Children' s and tweens' tastes, however, are
notoriously fickle. The Internet as an entertainment medium has also changed
the way products are marketed.
Some of the topics covered in this report include:
- Categorization and analysis of children and tweens by three mutually
exclusive personality types: Leaders, Followers, and Rebels
- An examination of how these three personality types affect the purchase of
MP3 players, music downloads, computers, video games, cell phones, and other
electronic products
- Details of children' and tweens' attitudes towards drive-in and casual
dining restaurants, snack foods, and staple foods
- Discussion of advertising targeting children
- Forecast of future trends, including an examination of online marketing
tactics
Readers of this report will gain insight into the values and attitudes of
leaders, followers and rebels towards a host of topics, and be empowered to
create marketing campaigns that speak to these influential cohorts.
Mintel defines children as boys and girls between the ages of six and eight.
