Thanks to Wattpad’s massive community, we’ve learned a thing or two about marketing to millennials. Today’s under-30 crowd have high expectations for branded content and a low tolerance for advertising. They expect to be entertained and engaged by their brand experiences. Brand storytelling is a great way to reach this demographic because it’s a win for both the audience and the brand, when done right.
