Daily Newspapers Continue to Work for Senior Targeted Products

Do you market products or services to a Senior Demographic?

While it may seem old-fashioned, newspapers are a great way to reach millions of new customers.

Your average newspaper subscriber (yes, they still exist) tends to be older and have more disposable income.

Statista in a 2016 report, shows 54% of newspapers subscribers to be over age 50. A more recent article shows similar demos.

That means it’s a perfect media for running direct response ads for products and services intended for an older demographic — medical security, rejuvenation products, walk-in tubs, home care services and hearing aids to name a few.

Our clients who use newspapers as part of their media mix include financial services companies, seminar marketers, medical device advertisers, healthcare solution providers and many more.

Whether you call them Boomers, Seniors, 50+ or the AARP crowd, these potential consumers are still most comfortable evaluating an advertisement that they can read and spend time with.

Copy and images are important. Claims and legitimacy are important too. Even the 800#’s in place of URLs.

Newspapers (along with catalogs, shared mail, direct mail and inserts) offer a variety of opportunities for reaching that customer in their home with frequency and recency — important components not only for branding but for eliciting a direct response — a call, a mail back coupon or a website visit.
