/></div><p>Ever feel like social media used to be somehow <em>better</em>? <p>In that case, you’re already familiar with the power of nostalgia to influence how we feel about products and services. <p>In this article, we’ll explain what nostalgia in marketing is all about and why it’s so effective. Plus we’ll share real-world examples of brands using nostalgia in their <a href="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/9-critical-components-of-a-successful-social-media-strategy/">social media marketing strategies</a>. <p>Let’s get into it… <h2>What Is Nostalgia Marketing?</h2> <p>Nostalgia marketing is about encouraging audiences to form an emotional connection with your product, service, or brand by relating them to positive sentiments from their past. The types of things that make them feel warm, fuzzy, and <em>safe</em>. <p>Done right, nostalgia marketing can be a powerful tool for <a href="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/creating-content-for-top-of-funnel/">building brand awareness</a> and recall, capturing earned media, and persuading people to buy. <h2>Why Does Nostalgia Marketing Work?</h2> <p><a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/hide-and-seek/201411/the-meaning-nostalgia">Psychologists</a> have found that our brain’s emotional and reward centers can be triggered by meaningful memories, like a piece of music that relates to a positive past experience or a cherished place. <p>In a world that can often feel like a pretty <em>scary place</em>, it’s easy to see why social media users seek out and engage with this sort of content. Particularly given that <a href="https://fortune.com/2023/12/22/nostalgia-craze-americans-generations-clay-routledge/">77% of Americans</a> agree that nostalgic memories provide a source of comfort during uncertain or difficult times. <p>So who, exactly, is most influenced by nostalgia-tinged marketing? <p>Perhaps surprisingly, it’s especially effective for targeting younger audiences. Consumer research company <a href="https://blog.gwi.com/trends/nostalgia-trend/">GWI</a> found that <strong>15% of Gen Z and 14% of Millennials prefer thinking about the past rather than the future</strong>, with interest tailing off among older age groups. Similarly, 50% of Gen Z and 47% of Millennials feel nostalgia toward certain types of media. <p>Across all age demographics, consumers are most likely to be nostalgic about the decade of their childhood or young adulthood — the noughties for Gen Z, the 90s for Millennials, the 80s for Gen X, and the 70s for Baby Boomers. <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5195 lazyload" src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAmUAAAJlAQAAAACz9LiKAAAAAnRSTlMAAHaTzTgAAABFSURBVHja7cExAQAAAMKg9U9tCU+gAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPgbusYAAVkWuVAAAAAASUVORK5CYII=" alt="" width="613" height="613" data-wp-pid="5195" data-src="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing.png?x37903" data-srcset="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing.png 613w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-300x300.png 300w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-150x150.png 150w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-600x600.png 600w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-100x100.png 100w" data-sizes="auto" data-eio-rwidth="613" data-eio-rheight="613" /><noscript><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5195" src="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing.png?x37903" alt="" width="613" height="613" data-wp-pid="5195" srcset="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing.png 613w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-300x300.png 300w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-150x150.png 150w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-600x600.png 600w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/power-of-nostalgia-marketing-100x100.png 100w" sizes="(max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px" data-eio="l" /></noscript> <p><a href="https://blog.gwi.com/trends/nostalgia-trend/">Image source</a> <p>Yet 37% of Gen Z express nostalgic feelings about the 1990s — despite most of them not having been born then. <p>This taps into a key element of nostalgia marketing: it’s less about giving a realistic portrayal of life in the past, and more about tapping into positive emotions associated with previous times. <p>After all, you’re a marketer, not a documentarian. <h2>6 Killer Examples of Nostalgia in Social Media Marketing</h2> <p>Okay, so we know what nostalgia marketing is, and we know why it works. <p>Now, let’s dive into some real-life examples of nostalgia marketing on social media and examine what they can teach us for our own campaigns… <h3>1. Oh Polly Launches Co-Branding Campaign With Iconic Doll Brand</h3> <p>Oh Polly is a women’s fashion brand predominantly targeting Gen Z. <p>As we’ve already seen, consumers in that age bracket are most likely to feel nostalgic for the 2000s, so it made perfect sense for Oh Polly to team up with Bratz — a fashion doll line that first hit the market in 2001. <p>This collaboration is a classic example of co-branding in action.

In our next example, insurance company Geico tapped into two trends — nostalgia and Halloween — by reminding social media followers about one of its most popular past campaigns: <blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBe2kFXsPg3/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14"> <div style="padding: 16px;"> <p>  <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;"></div> </div> </div> <div style="padding: 19% 0;"></div> <div style="display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;"></div> <div style="padding-top: 8px;"> <div style="color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;">View this post on Instagram</div> </div> <div style="padding: 12.5% 0;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;"> <div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);"></div> </div> <div style="margin-left: 8px;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;"></div> <div style="width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);"></div> </div> <div style="margin-left: auto;"> <div style="width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);"></div> <div style="width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);"></div> </div> </div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;"></div> </div> <p>  <p style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;"><a style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBe2kFXsPg3/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A post shared by GEICO (@geico)</a> </div> </blockquote> <p><script async src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script> <p>There are a couple big benefits to this approach. <p>For one thing, it’s a massive time-saver. All they had to do was post a video they created a decade ago and come up with a new caption, which definitely beats having to think up a whole new campaign. <p>But this tactic wasn’t born out of pure laziness, with GWI’s research revealing that <a href="https://blog.gwi.com/trends/nostalgia-trend/">one in five consumers</a> feel nostalgia for old advertisements. So by resharing this old ad, Geico was able to build more of a positive connection with audiences who remember it from the first time around. <p>(Plus, let’s be honest, it’s a <em>fun ad</em> — so why not run it again?) <p>💡 <strong>Key learning:</strong> Don’t worry if you haven’t got Geico-level brand awareness, because you can still recycle your most popular campaigns from years gone by. Long-term fans will appreciate it, and those who weren’t following you at the time get to enjoy their first look. <h3>4. ColourPop Cosmetics Taps Into <em>Stranger Things</em> Nostalgia</h3> <p><em>Stranger Things</em> is a dream for any marketer trying to leverage the benefits of nostalgia on social media. <p>It’s a double-win, allowing brands to engage audiences who remember when it first came out in 2016, while also targeting consumers who feel nostalgic for the show’s iconic 1980s setting and aesthetic. <p>So by teaming up with <em>Stranger Things</em> for a product launch, cosmetics brand ColourPop effectively tapped into two “flavors” of nostalgia in a single campaign: <blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/DAYxqnsNoxF/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14"> <div style="padding: 16px;"> <p>  <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;"></div> </div> </div> <div style="padding: 19% 0;"></div> <div style="display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;"></div> <div style="padding-top: 8px;"> <div style="color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;">View this post on Instagram</div> </div> <div style="padding: 12.5% 0;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;"> <div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);"></div> </div> <div style="margin-left: 8px;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;"></div> <div style="width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);"></div> </div> <div style="margin-left: auto;"> <div style="width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);"></div> <div style="width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);"></div> </div> </div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;"></div> </div> <p>  <p style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;"><a style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DAYxqnsNoxF/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A post shared by ColourPop Cosmetics (@colourpopcosmetics)</a> </div> </blockquote> <p><script async src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script> <p>💡 <strong>Key learning:</strong> Don’t have the budget for a <em>Stranger Things</em> collab? No problem. The real learning here is that nostalgia can come from unexpected places. Remember, <em>Stranger Things </em>season one came out in 2016. So if you have an audience that skews younger, the late-teens could be fertile ground for nostalgic inspiration. <h3>5. Bobby Jack Targets Emo Fans</h3> <p>Inevitably, Gen Z’s fixation with all things noughties has sparked a resurgence in one of the era’s defining music scenes, emo.

There’s no right or wrong approach — it’s about doing what makes sense for you and your audience. <h2>5 Best Practices for Nostalgia in Social Media Marketing</h2> <p>Let’s wrap things up with some key pointers for successful nostalgia marketing on social media: <ul> <li><strong>Start with your audience: </strong>Different nostalgic triggers resonate with different audiences. So don’t just jump on the latest nostalgia trend — ask yourself whether it’ll engage your customers.</li> <li><strong>Take a multimedia approach:</strong> Images, videos, and sounds can all provoke nostalgic feelings, so be sure to experiment with all of them in your campaigns.</li> <li><strong>Bring something new to the table:</strong> Remember, nostalgia isn’t about accurately representing the past. It’s about tapping into a fictionalized version of it, with your brand and products at the center.</li> <li><strong>Leverage cultural milestones:</strong> It often makes sense to launch campaigns around key pop culture dates, like the 10th anniversary of an album or movie.</li> <li><strong>Work with nostalgia-inducing brands:</strong> Co-branding collaborations are an effective way to reach new audiences. And it can work even better if the brand you’re teaming up with sparks feelings of nostalgia in your audience.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Want to learn proven social media strategies from industry leaders?
