No longer a frivolous pastime, collecting likes and followers now has very real-world applications. In short, Gen Z not only prefers social media influencers to celebrities, they also consider raising their own level of influence a worthy pursuit of their time.
Workshop Question - How can you help your customer connect with like-minded individuals?
