Summary

At this point, most of us know how important it is to be responsible marketers when it comes to multicultural consumers, especially in the wake of last summer’s events when brands began to look at where they needed to do better. But there’s another group of consumers that have long been plagued with exaggerated, stereotypical, misleading, and occasionally offensive marketing, and that’s the senior population. In fact, it’s estimated that only 5-10% of advertiser budgets are dedicated to reaching them, despite the fact that they account for more than half of the consumer spend in the U.S. Join Claritas Account Director, Kyle Pechak and Rain the Growth Agency Senior Research Director, Ryan D’Ambrosio as they explain why brands need to pivot their strategy in favor of the 55+ population, what they can do to connect with them online and offline, and dispel myths that have long plagued these high-value consumers.
