THE KIDS ARE ONLINE: HOW BRANDS ARE NAVIGATING GEN ALPHA MARKETING

Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

Brands are embracing Gen Alpha by balancing direct engagement with ethical considerations. Companies like Evereden have shifted from targeting parents to reaching tweens directly through organic content on TikTok. Claire's combines digital strategies with in-store experiences, offering sections tailored to younger customers. Paid ads remain parent-focused since parents are the decision-makers, while brands exercise due diligence to ensure age-appropriate content and collaborations.
