Early Findings
Mothers are more likely to rely on
online reviews
when considering products to purchase for their children. Fathers are more likely to rely on traditional advertisements such as
TV commercial
s when making the same decisions.
Only
22%
of first-time parents used every baby item they bought or received for their child. One study found that brands should build "
emotional connections
" with these parents to avoid having their items go unused or returned.
39%
of mothers are more likely to turn to social media to research a potential purchase for their child than they are a search engine.
Social media is key to parent consumer journeys.
51%
of parents use social media to get ideas when shopping for their children's clothing.
85%
of parents use social media to aid them when shopping in-store.
55%
of new moms are more likely to purchase a product if they read positive reviews about it online.
First-time mothers also often rely on
word-of-mouth
from friends who have had children when getting product recommendations.
Think With Google makes an observation that brands need to
focus less
on marketing to demographics alone, such as parents, because they may miss out on people shopping for baby shower gifts that way.
