Jones is joined by content creator Freddie Ransome, and gives
viewers a peek into moments of their lives as they chat about the
financial strategies and resources that have worked for them. The
videos will be distributed across their social media channels.
“We need to have real conversations about money. Not just
spending it, but other aspects that can help anyone create a
healthy financial path. I’m excited to partner with Experian to
help my generation and more to expand their financial education,”
Jones said.
The first episode of “In My Bag“ debuted today on Jones’ TikTok
and Instagram, and Ransome’s TikTok, Instagram and Twitter. Jones
and Ransome share how they manage their holiday spending. Jones
previously shared part of her own financial empowerment journey
during an episode of Protect The Bag, a web series created by
Grammy-award winning artist, Lecrae, in partnership with
Experian.
Both partnerships are part of Experian’s United for Financial
Health initiative, which aims to empower and protect consumers to
improve their financial health through education and action.
“At Experian, we want to normalize talking about money and
financial health. Coco is relatable, and her transparency about her
own journey gets others excited about theirs. Together, we aim to
help people thrive and achieve their life’s goals,” said Abigail
Lovell, Chief Sustainability Officer for Experian.
As part of the three-part video series, future “In My Bag”
episodes will address budgeting, saving and investing, and how to
start one’s financial journey. They can be seen on Jones’ TikTok
and Instagram, and Ransome’s TikTok and Instagram. #IMBExperian
