Baby boomers are typically under-served in the dating industry. The perception that the older generations don\u2019t understand technology \u2013 and have less interest in romance \u2013 means that this potentially lucrative market has been largely ignored. But while the over 65s are still the industry’s smallest market, the aging population means that its share of industry revenue has increased. And the 45 \u2013 64 age group also represents a significant portion of daters. In fact, one in 10 Americans<\/a> dating online can now be classed as Boomers. So, how can you get your dating offers in front of the boomer market?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five Tips for Affiliate Program Members to Promote Dating Offers to Boomers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Understand your market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The importance of market research can never be overstated. If you want to convert dating traffic into sales and get profit from dating offers, you have to know who you\u2019re dealing with. The term \u2018boomers\u2019 refers to people born between 1946 and 1964. Right now, there is an estimated 79 million<\/a> boomers in the United States. And another 14 million<\/a> in the UK. And most of them have a significant amount of disposable income. If you want to maximize the potential of that enormous audience, you need to do your research<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch your language<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re used to working with online dating affiliate programs, you\u2019re probably used to a younger market. That means keeping your copy fresh, and dialing up the slang. That does not work with the boomer generation. Instead, you need to keep your writing clear. Your tone sincere. Never forget who you\u2019re writing for. And don\u2019t call them old, elderly, or boomers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose your platforms wisely<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019re promoting dating offers you need to get your content seen. But more than that, it has to be seen by the right people. <\/em>So, that means really thinking about where you put in your time and spend your money. At the moment, Facebook is the most popular social platform in the older demographic. And research suggests that they\u2019re 19% more likely to share content<\/a>. So, if you\u2019re working with affiliate programs targeting the mature audience, don\u2019t just rely on your usual outlets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep it simple<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a generalization, but older users typically turn to the internet for information rather than entertainment. So, when promoting your affiliate network\u2019s products, don\u2019t try to be too clever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
