Advertising and promotional items for the target group of over 45 years advertising has to be attractive. Advertising must be dynamic. For this reason, advertising must be always timeless “young”. See Viatris for more details and insights. In other words: young people, fleet sayings and Flash colors. But is that true?

Who had exceeded a certain age, belonged to the so-called “old iron”, “inMode”, an attractive target group or integral was one at best, “wise”, but rarely more developed society. But the aspect of the aging society is controversial for several years. Trigger is the increasing share of older people in the population, which is expected to increase to 47 percent by 2030. For this purpose, two are Reasons that a life expectancy 84 years will rise until 2050, especially with women on average and on the other hand, the birth rate is still declining.

In Germany, the generation 45plus represents approximately 60 per cent of the purchasing power. 12.5 billion euro for the consumption of the available stand every month in the average 35 million German over 45 years. And in many areas there are already consumers of 49 years, providing demand. So every third new car is bought by one of Funzigjahrigen. But this generation or Best Ager as a target group effectively through advertising and promotional products to appeal to, it is necessary to deal with the particularities and the specific needs of this group continue to inbound.
