The Bar Business Podcast: Smart Hospitality & Marketing Secrets For Bar & Pub Owners

Gen Z Bar and Nightlife Habits Redefining the Future of Bar Economics

β€’ Chris Schneider, The Bar Business Coach β€’ Season 3 β€’ Episode 162

To run a bar without the vision for Gen Z would be to develop a menu blindly. 

They spend less than Millennials did, yet spend when they do buy. They consult their phone on TikTok rather than Google. And when their discretionary spend comes in at $450 billion, they're quickly becoming the generation that makes or breaks your bar. 

That's why forward-thinking bar owners are listening. Gen Z isn't just another clientele group, they're redefining the economics, culture, and brand of nightlife. 

Learn what makes Gen Z tick, and discover how to create an experience that draws them in, wins their trust, and brings them back.
