We talk with Edward, a 14-year-old from Sydney, to get authentic insights into what makes brands appealing to young Australian consumers and how promotional products influence their perceptions of companies.
• Nike, Adidas, McDonald's, IKEA, and Sony stand out to young Australians because of their distinctive logos and youth-targeted marketing
• For promotional items, the brand logo often matters more than the product itself to young consumers
• Official licensing and authenticity are important factors when evaluating branded merchandise
• Social media is the primary channel for brand discovery, but young people typically need active promotion from influencers to take notice
• Promotional products that enhance experiences (like concert light sticks that sync with music) create the most memorable brand connections
• Sustainability matters to young Australians who don't want to be associated with brands that harm animals or the environment
