"We cling to our own point of view, as though everything depended on it. Yet our opinions have no permanence; like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away."

New Millennial Segmentation Research Findings Will Surprise You
Zeldis Research is excited to unveil its 2017 Millennial Segmentation Research, with first results to be presented at the SIR Conference October 22-25. (See Article below). An online survey with 1000 Millennials (as well as a comparison group of Boomers and Gen-Xers) was conducted in August. Using statistical segmentation, we classified Millennials into five key segments based on general attitudes and demographics. Over the next months, we will present deeper dives into how the segments differ in attitudes and behavior related to topics including health and wellness, finances and financial products, work and benefits, and life and P&C insurance products and preferences.
In each of our next newsletter issues, we will introduce one of our five Millennial segments. We think you'll be surprised to see that not all segments match our pre-conceived notions about Millennials.

 Pre-Testing: Punching Above Its Weight
Survey pre-tests were once the standard in market research, but over the years, budget and time constraints have contributed to their fall in popularity. Jeff Mann, Zeldis Research Senior Research Director, makes a strong case for the value of pre-testing in this video and research brief. "Pre-tests can be used efficiently and quickly in our new world of speed and cost-conscious research," writes Jeff, "and they deliver benefits that punch well above their lightweight demand on time and budget."
