Puma has launched a podcast that discusses the company’s sustainability targets and the progress it has made towards achieving each of them. Aimed at younger audiences, the “RE:GEN REPORTS” podcast features Gen Z representatives, industry peers and experts and is available on all major podcast platforms.
We look at what factors encourage the brand’s customers as well as Gen Z and Millennials in the US to listen to podcasts.
According to YouGov Profiles - which covers demographic, psychographic, attitudinal and behavioral consumer metrics - 21% of Puma’s current customers listen to on-demand audio like podcasts and audiobooks at least once a day.
When it comes to reasons for listening to podcasts, a third (33%) of Gen Z and Millennials and 37% of Puma’s current customers do so to educate themselves or learn something new.
Where 40% of the brand’s customers consume podcast content for entertainment, a smaller proportion (29%) of Gen Z and Millennials listen to podcasts for this reason. A similar proportion (28%) of Gen Z and Millennials and 43% of Puma’s customers tune in to podcasts to keep themselves informed about current affairs.
Well over a third (37%) of the sports brand’s customers opt for podcasts to learn something new and a third (33%) of them do so to relax. Comparatively, a smaller proportion (23%) of Gen Z and Millennials listen to podcasts to relax.
