Do you happen to be between the age of 25 and 32? In the last 3 to 4 years have you got married, had your first child and possibly nested?? If you answered ‘yes’ to at least 2 of the above questions then you might just be classified as a ‘Nestie.’
This new consumer group is definitely defined by change, flux, and adaptability! According to this study, there are key characteristics of Nesties and these include the following: being in charge of the house hold purchase decisions, she maintains her independence even after marriage, she is financially conscious, and most definitely she seeks convenience.
