In today’s world, the younger audience is one of the most influential and demanding markets when it comes to digital experiences. Creating products and services that captivate this audience is a challenging yet essential task for any company looking to thrive in the current landscape. But how can you ensure that your creations truly resonate with digital natives?
The first question that many UX professionals ask when dealing with the digital generation is, “What really makes teenagers click, interact, and stay engaged in a digital environment?” Subsequently, the question arises, “How do you validate ideas with this audience?”
Creating engaging digital experiences for teenagers is much more than simply following design trends. It’s about deeply understanding your users, their motivations, and challenges.
Gabriel Roque, our Head of UX at ília Europe, has taken on this challenge head-on and compiled his findings, strategies, and insights into an e-book that serves as a roadmap for understanding how to communicate with teenagers, grasp their minds, opinions, and needs – from creating environments that foster these conversations to crafting effective prototypes.
“There are numerous techniques and widely recognized methods for conducting usability tests and validating products. However, few address the crucial adaptation required when dealing with audiences in a phase of development and opinion formation. This is a unique period in everyone’s life, a stage of intense information absorption and a profusion of possibilities for the future. Knowing how to listen is one of the key principles of UX, and that’s what I aim to share in this e-book: valuable guidance on how to listen to the new generation, which possesses a wealth of ideas waiting to be explored”, explains Gabriel Roque.
