Marketing
« on: June 23, 2013, 04:42:49 pm »
Most marketing, and test groups seem to focus on the young crowds, like maybe the teens to the 30 or some up to the 40 year olds.  I wonder how many 60 to 70 or 80 year olds could be successfully marketed

Maybe technologly could help them into the iphone, ipads, smartphones, beam me up Scotty technology. As they like to send pictures, take pictures, and beam them to their kids, grandkids etc.  They are not stupid, just maybe arthritic, can't type as fast, and yes maybe a little slow. Whom ever catches this knitch in the market will make billions. And help them with their typing skills and spelling.

You would be surprised as to how many of us seniors are on the computer, etc............. just a thought

It does seem like there is an untapped market for technology for older people. Especially with the Baby Boomers. If I knew more about technology maybe I'd invent some stuff.

You don't need to know anything about technology, the Internet is swarming with people that can take your idea to fruition if you come up with one. I'm working on one that doesn't even need that, all the pieces are available and I just need to figure out how to get it in front of the right prospects (baby boomers in USA or Canada).
