especially for women (realized with the VDMD (Association of German Fashion
Designers).

Motto
“Freedom to
choose the individual style" was the subsuming motto of this years Best Ager
performance, because active people of a certain age not only design their free
time in a more flexible way. They also do not have to define themselves
according to style codes and they are mostly not restricted financially. These
facts, along with their broad experience, makes them especially demanding customers.
+++++
It is a
fact that Best Agers see themselves as perfectly normal people and therefore
wish to be addressed in a normal way. But the world of marketing seems to have
great trouble identifying with this target group.
+++++
Against this backdrop,
ispo arranged the first Best Ager market survey for the sports area together
with the renowned Institute for Opinion Research (IfD) in Allensbach. This survey is not exclusively about the attitude of older people towards sports: product
supply, acceptance and desires towards existing offers and promotional
communication were investigated as well. The focus was put on the study
of wishes and needs of elder active people who do sports in their free time.
The most important facts about the market were presented at the Best Ager booth at
ispo winter 08.
