There is a sense from marketers that targeting older consumers is a waste as they are set in their brand choices. The #ForerunnerReport research showed the opposite. Some categories are set, but older consumers are highly influenced by marketing

Some recent work that we did trying to get a feel for the South African consumer landscape. While household income is not a perfect window into consumer behaviour, there is so much to learn from digging into each segment.

Marketing Twitter would be much more peaceful if people stopped saying: “(Person)… just reinvented marketing” and just said: “(Person)… just did something innovative” 🙄

Been working at this for a year. Its going to be a superb morning in JHB! Some amazing speakers lined up to look at the majority of SA consumers. I haven't ever seen much written specifically about the Working Class (14 million consumers earning R8-22k household income).
