About the blog

It's a simple math problem. The average age of a credit union member is 10 years older than the average age of a North American. If credit unions do not reverse the trend and attract the next generation of credit union members, the future doesn't look so bright.

The Why Gen Y Blog has a simple mission: to equip credit union executives and marketers with relevant information that will help them succeed in attracting and retaining new Generation Y members.

Young & Free presentation for NCUF REAL Solutions

Yesterday, DeAndré and I joined Brent Dixon for a presentation at the REAL Solutions Winter Field Coach and League Liaison Meeting in Orlando, Florida. Brent set the stage with a 30 minute overview of social media and user-generated content and then DeAndré and I split the next hour talking about Young & Free. 

Here are the slides from DeAndré and my portion of the presentation.

 

Thanks to the National Credit Union Foundation for inviting us out to share our progress!
