Kia ora, I’m Greg from Playtech! I’m an Auckland based marketing manager with over a decade of experience working in the gaming industry, I specialize in helping brands connect with the lucrative gaming demographics. With years of experience working for NZ’s oldest and most innovative gaming PC manufacturer, I have gained deep insights into the gaming market and its unique consumer behaviours.Gaming is no longer just a niche hobby, but a massive global industry that transcends age, gender, and cultural boundaries. As the gaming landscape continues to evolve, I understand the challenges brands face when trying to tap into this highly engaged and influential audience.The main demographics of gamers are diverse, ranging from young kids to older adults, and include both males and females. The gaming market is no longer limited to just hardcore “basement dweller” gamers, but also encompasses casual gamers, mobile gamers, and die-hard E-Sport enthusiasts. According to recent statistics, there are over 2.7 billion gamers worldwide, with the majority falling within the age range of 18 to 34. This demographic is known for having high purchasing power, being tech-savvy, and being early adopters of new technologies.Did you know that gaming is legally considered a real sport in New Zealand, and there are official regulatory bodies and event organizers that can often receive higher viewership than “traditional” sports in New Zealand?Marketing to the gaming demographics can be incredibly beneficial to brands. Not only does it provide access to a large and diverse consumer base, but it also allows brands to tap into the unique aspects of gaming culture, such as community engagement, influencer partnerships, and E-Sports sponsorships. Additionally, the gaming industry has been proven to be recession-proof, with consistent growth even during economic downturns.If you are a brand looking to connect with gaming demographics and overcome the challenges of accessing this highly valuable market, I am here to help. Let's collaborate and create innovative marketing strategies that will capture the hearts and minds of gamers, drive brand awareness, and boost your bottom line. Let's level up together!Feel free to connect with me to discuss how we can collaborate and unlock the full potential of the gaming market.
