AARP recently stated, “Among the many findings suggesting mature consumers are an attractive market, perhaps none is more compelling than that they tend to spend substantially more than others on their cars.” This trend in the automotive industry should not only bode well for car manufacturers, but also for all upscale manufacturers, as it shows that the mature market has discretionary income and is not afraid to use it to make high-dollar purchases. Advertisers can reap the benefits of reaching a mature audience, by marketing products and services through senior-specific publications.
