What's Next for Boomers How to Influence America's Most Influential Generation

"You've been studying us since birth, tracking our every move, analyzing our every purchase. You've compiled statistics and data on us for more than five decades and have talked about marketing to us for just as long. So, how come we still feel invisible-why do you care so much about those snot-nosed Millennials? Heck, we've got more money than they will ever see. So listen up marketers and brand managers, if you want some of our cash, show us the innovation."
— —the Boomer Generation
As you can see, Boomers are tired of the talk. While they may not be as sexy to market to as Gen X'ers or Millennials, this is the generation with the greatest spending power: When over 70 million Boomers set their sights on something the impact on the marketplace is significant.

Boomers are clearly living for the future. They continue to redefine how aging consumers live, shop and use products. Health concerns, brought on by their aging, bear new economic and cultural resonance that cannot be ignored by food and beverage manufacturers, marketers and retailers.

What's Next for Boomers: How to Influence America's Most Influential Generation, an important new Tinderbox study, takes an unprecedented immersive look at the group of people who speak openly and honestly about their food orientation, consumption patterns and the health and wellness factors that influnce them.

What's Inside

This provocative Tinderbox report, presented in PowerPoint with video clips embedded, features insightful analysis, compelling visuals and consumer commentary throughout.
