Business Context

"Green man 'too fast for slow elderly'“ (BBC News June 2012)

Dr Laura Asher, report leader and public health expert at University
College London, said: "Walking is an important activity for older
people as it provides regular exercise and direct health benefits.

"Being unable to cross a road may deter them from walking, reducing
their access to social contacts and interaction, local health services
and shops that are all important in day-to-day life."
Business Context
“Marketers Should Consider Packaging When Reaching Older
Consumers” (PRS Research)

Marketers of consumer goods know that packaging is key to
increasing and maintaining sales. So what's being done in research,
development and deployment of packaging targeted specifically at the
largest and most moneyed demographics -- Boomers and Seniors?

"The irony is, anything you do for the older demographic would work
well for everybody."
Business Context
Lansley watched in embarrassment while a blind person tried to place
an order. "After half an hour he hadn't managed to put anything in the
shopping cart," says Lansley. "So I banged my fist on the table and
said: 'I'm so sorry. This is dreadful.' I made a promise that I would
change the site and walked out of the building a changed person. This
was an example of one of the people who could benefit most from
home shopping and he couldn't use it."

“Not only do we get the satisfaction of doing the right thing, but it's a
great market opportunity in its own right.”

Many fully-sighted people find Tesco's Access site easier to use than
other sites. The site now attracts a much wider audience, spending
£13 million a year.
The Marketplace

• The over 50‟s account for 80% of the UK‟s wealth:

                           £300 billion

• Total annual spending by households including someone aged 65+:

                           £109 billion

• Percentage of people aged 65+ who think businesses have little
interest in the consumer needs of older people:

                                39%

Human Ageing



UNIVERSAL             - everyone ages


PROGRESSIVE - we cannot stop the process

INTRINSIC             - it is irreversible / cannot be corrected


 we will never be younger than we are today


 Through Other Eyes
Not a Homogenous Group


• Ageing is an individual experience; people age in
  different ways

• The accumulation of „affect‟ is dramatically different
  from one person to another

• People‟s response to and ability to cope with the ageing
  process, differs greatly

  • 5. Business Context "Green man 'too fast for slow elderly'“ (BBC News June 2012) Dr Laura Asher, report leader and public health expert at University College London, said: "Walking is an important activity for older people as it provides regular exercise and direct health benefits. "Being unable to cross a road may deter them from walking, reducing their access to social contacts and interaction, local health services and shops that are all important in day-to-day life."
  • 6. Business Context “Marketers Should Consider Packaging When Reaching Older Consumers” (PRS Research) Marketers of consumer goods know that packaging is key to increasing and maintaining sales. So what's being done in research, development and deployment of packaging targeted specifically at the largest and most moneyed demographics -- Boomers and Seniors? "The irony is, anything you do for the older demographic would work well for everybody."
  • 7. Business Context Lansley watched in embarrassment while a blind person tried to place an order. "After half an hour he hadn't managed to put anything in the shopping cart," says Lansley. "So I banged my fist on the table and said: 'I'm so sorry. This is dreadful.' I made a promise that I would change the site and walked out of the building a changed person. This was an example of one of the people who could benefit most from home shopping and he couldn't use it." “Not only do we get the satisfaction of doing the right thing, but it's a great market opportunity in its own right.” Many fully-sighted people find Tesco's Access site easier to use than other sites. The site now attracts a much wider audience, spending £13 million a year.
  • 8. The Marketplace • The over 50‟s account for 80% of the UK‟s wealth: £300 billion • Total annual spending by households including someone aged 65+: £109 billion • Percentage of people aged 65+ who think businesses have little interest in the consumer needs of older people: 39%

  • 12. Not a Homogenous Group • Ageing is an individual experience; people age in different ways • The accumulation of „affect‟ is dramatically different from one person to another • People‟s response to and ability to cope with the ageing process, differs greatly Through Other Eyes

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Special features of the older market:Large numbers of people with functional disabilityUp to 4 million have a (major) limitation to their daily activities caused by illness and disability Many more have at least one impairmentAge UK Stats – June 2012About 3 million people in the UK have osteoporosis, and this is responsible for around 230,000fractures each year
  2. Older People are an increasing proportion of the population. Many have special needs, but collectively they form an important part of the consumer market. What are their needs and aspirations, and what barriers do they experience in accessing goods and services?This interactive and simulation workshop is based on the ´Through other Eyes´ programme originated by gerontologists in Ontario and will enable participants to explore the realities of design for older people. It will offer a powerful insight into what it is like to be older & excluded due to physical and sensory impairments, the environment &/or service or product design.The programme facilitates experiential learning which challenges attitudes to older people and the design, development and packaging of products and services provided for them.
  3. Inclusive design encourages manufacturers and providers to define the target population as the maximum number of people who could use the product and it aims to minimise the number (at the top of pyramid below) for whom specially adapted products are required.Inclusive design also encourages designers and providers to gain an understanding of the needs and abilities of the diverse market and how consumer needs may alter with age and changing ability.
  4. Currently, loss of cognitive skills – our ability to think and remember – is the single biggest reason why older people lose their independence and need 24-hour care.  Over one million people in the UK over 65 have some degree of age-related cognitive impairment and 80 per cent of those diagnosed with significant impairment will develop dementia within six years. With demographic change bring a larger ageing society the number is expected to grow. A major research project that Age UK has been supporting at Edinburgh University focusing on cognitive decline has highlighted how people’s ability to process and understand information changes over time. The work has its roots in studies which began in 1947 and has tracked the same cohort of people over their lives, with them being tested at interval, the most recent of which was aged 73. This unique research shows is that mental ability, on average, declines quite gradually over most of our lives with the decline being offset by our innate use of experience. However, some forms of mental decline are more pronounced than others and the biggest declines occur after the age of 60.While our verbal abilities are retained virtually all our lives our inductive reasoning, perceptual speed, verbal memory and spatial awareness all decline markedly, on average, after the age of 60.  These are all important, however, some are more important than others in different kinds of daily living activities  For example - inductive reasoning is the form of reasoning that constructs or evaluates inductive arguments- Verbal memory is our memory of words- Perceptual speed is our ability to read and take in informationthese are very important in our ability to interact with some of the tasks we might encounter in a telephone call relating to our finances and decline in these would impair the ability of someone to review a document, assess information on it and communicate information in a timely manner. (call centre staff cite incidents of older clients going off to find some data and returning 20 minutes later not realising the period of time that has passed)
