7 keys to reaching the elusive millennial generation

More and more, Millennials are hiring cleaners to clean their home and apartment. This demographic is an excellent source of income and business for any cleaning company. However, if you want to attract Millennials to hire your business, you need to market to them in words, language and ways they will understand.

1. Have a good profile

Millennials have grown up researching products and services online. They are less likely to ask for referrals from friends and family members and more likely to be influenced by online profiles. One of the first things many Millennials look at before they hire a company is their online profile. Completely fill out your profile, use images and give as much information to make it easy for Millennials to find you.

2. Be authentic

43% of Millennials rank authenticity over content when they consume information. Today, Millennials are looking for brands they can trust and believe in. Transparency is key when marketing to Millennials.  The rise of social media has led to Millennials becoming more loyal to brands they feel they can connect with. Additionally, when they find a brand they love, they are more eager to share or promote it on their social media sites and review sites.

3. Make sure your website is mobile friendly

Millennials are extremely active on their mobile phones and they use them to research and book services more than older generations do. Millennials expect to be able to find the same information on your mobile website as on your desktop site and they are more likely to leave your website if they can’t understand or find what they are looking for easily on your mobile site.


4. Create great content

Millennials consume content online in a way that no other generation ever has. According to AdAge, Millennials are spending an average of 25 hours per week online. They are looking for content on websites, blogs and social media. Great content helps a Millennial feel empowered, which encourages them to trust your business even more. Just remember to keep the content brief as most Millennials enjoy consuming quick, easy-to-consume content.

5. Be active on social media

65% of Millennials like companies on Facebook or Twitter. It’s an incredibly important channel if you want to reach Millennials because they grew up connecting through social media. Millennials do not enjoy direct sales and prefer indirect sales which makes social media an ideal selling channel. Focus on creating community, sharing great content and connecting with Millennials over directly selling on your social websites. 

6. Never spam

Millennials are technology savvy and they are often inundated with content. They are looking to connect with brands authentically and receive great content in return from them. If you are marketing to Millennials, never spam them with too many emails, phone calls or direct messages. Remember, Millennials prefer indirect sales and being too pushy will turn them off.

7. Talk directly to them

You need to speak Millennial language to connect to them. Those in this demographic are more likely to connect when they hear or read words that come from their peers. These messages can warrant comfort and trust. Listen to how Millennials speak, the language and phrases they use and replicate it in your marketing efforts. 

The buying power of Millennials is huge. The demographic is only beginning to earn more money and have a higher disposal income as the years go by. Start connecting with your Millennial customers with these tips and you could have an entire new set of fans.
