Here\u2019s a challenge: Find me someone in their 20s who is begging for another pop-up ad or push notification.<\/p><p>Stop guessing what next gens want and start listening to them. A whopping 78 percent of Gen Z gets overwhelmed when shopping online. They\u2019re telling retailers to reduce friction points along their path-to-purchase, not pile them on in hopes of getting some dreamy ROI.<\/p><p>Gen Z won\u2019t put up with false urgency from retailers.
