Affluent Millennials are important – today. They’re seeking information. They’re making significant personal finance decisions. They’re establishing brand relationships. Don’t wait to engage them.
2. Build dialogue and trust with educational content.
Affluent Millennials are information seekers and may not be seeking the same information as previous generations.
Connect Via Content - Affluent Millennials are information seekers who desire involvement and control in financial decisions.
