Top Retail Top Retail Magazine and Noah Everist talk about targeting Gen Z

January 30, 2026

Read the article

During periods of economic uncertainty, Gen Z is the most inflation-sensitive — and the most digitally savvy — generation. While they may be buying less today, when they do spend it’s most likely through social channels, making brand-building now essential. However, reaching Gen Z in 2026 requires more than showing up on social. This audience buys into a brand’s values as much as its products, with 65 percent preferring companies that communicate a clear moral stance. Authenticity isn’t optional; it’s the cost of entry. Winning Gen Z demands a holistic, values-driven approach that spans channels, embraces transparency, and meets them where they already consume media, from mobile to connected TV, with consistently authentic communication.

The Drum Hastedt Talks Sports Marketing

Sports marketing is having a major moment, and we’re all in.

From creator collabs to real-time ads, the game is evolving fast.
In this new piece from The Drum, our Co-Founder and Managing Director, Jeff Hastedt, shares his perspective on how brands are tapping into fan culture.

Read the article here: https://www.thedrum.com/news/2025/09/30/sport-marketing-s-full-circle-moment-creator-and-licensing-deals-changing-the-game

Jeff Hastedt: “Traditional in-game ads are costly and viewers’ attention spans are fragmented. Second-screen activations are a great opportunity, meeting viewers where they already are. These can include real-time stats, wagering odds or fan commentary. Another game-changer is streaming platform sponsorships. Services like Amazon and Apple increasingly invest in sports content, opening new ad channels beyond expensive, legacy slots. On the athlete front, name/image/likeness-style influencer partnerships in sports bypass traditional celebrity lanes, enabling brands to reach passionate audiences from the players’ own channels. For audio, programmatic sports-focused audio campaigns, including ad placements within podcasts, can be tailored by behavior or team affinity, boosting relevance. Lastly, there’s untapped potential in digital out-of-home: targeted digital signage around stadiums, sports bars, and retail sports zones is effective for on-the-go fan engagement.”
