Information overload will only increase as the data stream becomes more rapid. As consumers become overstimulated and overwhelmed by increased exposure to content, they become better at ignoring and skipping irrelevant information.

We found that consumers filter content through their cultural preferences beyond anything else. Therefore, brands need to better integrate their product or service within influential cultures relevant to the target consumer. Gen-Z are so adept at skimming and skipping content that feels irrelevant that you must ensure the cultural integration of the brand feels 100% authentic, or Gen-Z will swipe it.
