Social media has become a major part of everyday life over the past decade.Social media connects people worldwide and serves as both a means ofcommunication and a source of information. The constant increase in users andcommunication options opens up completely new opportunities for companies to obtain information about target groups and to communicate with them.Of particular interest to companies is the Millennial generation. This generation is one of the top users of Social Media and will develop into a generation with
enormous purchasing power in the next few years. In order to successfully connect to this generation on Social Media, it is indispensable for companies to understand this generation and their behaviour on Social Media. Despite many existing research on Millennials and Social Media, there are hardly
any scientific findings about the gender-specific differences in the usage behaviour of Millennials with content on Social Media.
Based on this background, this master thesis aims to identify where these genderspecific differences can be found and how companies can use these insights for their marketing purposes. Based on the findings of theoretical section of this thesis, certain hypotheses were formulated, which were checked for their empirical
durability. In addition, further assumptions regarding the gender-specific differences of the Millennials on Social Media were empirically examined in order to maximize the findings for companies. The results of the survey show that in some areas there are slightly significant gender-specific differences, but in most cases less significant differences are found.Based on the results of this thesis, a list of recommended actions for companies to optimize their Social Media marketing activities for the generation of Millennials were given.
