Do experience and engagement matter to millennial consumers?
Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of certain dimensions of brand experience (sensory, behavioural, affective and intellectual) on millennial consumers' engagement. Design/methodology/approach: Data were collected using the central location intercept method from 443 millennial consumers (aged between 18 and 35 years) of fashion apparel. Structure equation modelling was used for the analysis. Findings: Results showed that all dimensions of brand experience (namely, sensory, behavioural, affective and intellectual) significantly affect millennial consumers' engagement. Practical implications: This study will assist managers in determining the role of experiences and engagement in strategy formulation for millennial fashion consumers. In particular, understanding the effect of brand experience dimensions on customer engagement provides new practical insights into consumer behaviour in the fashion apparel industry. Originality/value: Examining the phenomenon of experience and engagement amongst millennial consumers is an original approach and contributes to experience and engagement research in marketing.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
