New Look’s Post

Forget waiting until October—Halloween’s gone from a spooky season to a year-long phenomenon, fueled by Gen Z’s craving for self-expression and creativity. This generation isn’t just about candy; they’re about curated aesthetics, eco-conscious choices, and FOMO-driven shopping that begins as early as April. Retail giants and local shops alike are seeing the impact: Halloween is now a $12 billion retail juggernaut, demanding inventory months in advance and igniting sales across candy, costumes, and decor like never before. 💡 But what does this mean for brands? Retailers who embrace this shift are thriving, connecting with consumers in fresh, social-first ways, and crafting campaigns that feed Gen Z’s desire for personalization and sustainability. Ready to dive deeper into the why behind Gen Z's Halloween obsession and what it means for the future of retail? Check out our latest blog on how Halloween’s evolution is reshaping the market—and how your brand can tap into the thrill of early, impactful engagement. 🔥 #GenZ #Halloween2024 #RetailTrends #ConsumerInsights #InsightsinMarketing #HalloweenYearRound #RetailInnovation #SustainableShopping

Can Spirit Christmas Stores Find the Same Success as Spirit Halloween? Spirit Halloween is launching Spirit Christmas stores for the first time this holiday season. What insights arise from Spirit Halloween's shift to Christmas retail, especially regarding consumer behavior and seasonal spending? Read the article & panel discussion here: https://lnkd.in/eKfUqtXh Cathy Hotka "Spirit Halloween has a cult following, even though plenty of other stores carry Halloween merchandise. I’m going to guess that cult followers will at least try the new Christmas concept." Georganne Bender "Why would I need to visit a Spirit Christmas store when almot every other retailer on the planet has a Christmas department?" David Biernbaum "Christmas is not nearly as specialized as Halloween. Everyone knows what Halloween is specifically about, and know what they expect to see, and generally speaking, what they plan to buy, even before they enter the store."

🎃 Boo! As Halloween approaches, I'm reminded of a particularly spooky moment in my career. A few years ago, I attended a Halloween-themed networking event where everyone showcased their most creative costumes. I went as a ghost, but the real highlight was when a fellow attendee dressed as a “haunted shelf” filled with ghostly electronic shelf labels (ESL)! We shared laughs about how our labels could bring products to life in stores—just like the ghost stories of old. That night, it hit me: networking doesn’t just happen in the boardroom; sometimes, it takes on a life of its own, blending creativity and innovation. Here’s to embracing the spirit of Halloween while pushing the boundaries of retail technology!
