Launching next month, our first edition of Basis Signals focuses on Gen Z — how they’re spending, living, deciding, and socializing differently, and what that means for your revenue targets.

Did you know…

  • 3 in 4 Gen Z are more likely to buy if they can customize a product
  • 67% more young couples are now living with friends and family
  • 3 in 4 Gen Z consumers use AI chatbots when shopping online

Quick self-check: are you keeping pace with Gen Z?

  • Do you know where Gen Z actually goes to discover brands, products and services like yours?
  • Do you know what makes them choose one brand over another?
  • Do you know what shapes their buying decisions day to day?
  • Do you know where they find trustworthy advice when making decisions?
  • Do you know what brand loyalty looks like to Gen Z — and how it’s shown?
  • Do you know what spaces Gen Z sees as “community” — and why they’re not the ones you built marketing plans around?
  • Do you know how their experiences, expectations, and self-expression differ from Millennials or Gen X?

If you can’t answer these with confidence, it’s time to follow the right Signals.

What is Basis Signals?
