Ever wake up one morning and think to yourself:
“Jeepers self, if only I could plan faaar ahead in the future, and understand how to market to Generation Alpha years from now!
If so you’re definitely not alone – Gen Alpha are the kids born between 2010 and 2024, and yep… they’re going to be your customers in the next 7 years or so (or their parents are customers now!).
That’s why you’ll love the following (and be sure to return back once you’re done so you can benefit from the additional resources I uncovered for you):

Struggle with social formation due to screen saturation
Focus their education on learning specific skills
Experience marketing through influencers and personalized advertising
Have the most formal education, yet have less proficiency in earning practical skills, assessing risk, setting and achieving goals, and developing hands-on competencies….”
and more!
