In 2011, less than four years from now, the leading edge of 76 million people will hit the traditional retirement age-65-years-old,, and for the next 18 years, millions of retirees will overwhelm the nation’s social security and medicare systems. Think carefully now! Are you a baby boomer? If you are troubles loom ahead and these facts affect you.
Between 1946 and 1964, 76 million babies were born in this country. We refer to them as the baby boomers, the most significant cohort in the nation’s history. Tim Sales, a network marketing trainer likens the baby boomers to a basketball moving through a water hose. If you know where the basketball is, and can figure out what 76 million people want, you can earn tons of money. From the late 1940s through the 1950s decade, the baby boomers made Gerber’s and Halbros million dollar companies. Baby boomers started getting driver’s licenses just in time to make the Mustang the nation’s number one muscle car in history. As these boomers hit their mid-to-late 20s, even early 30s, and had heard for the last time: “My house, my rules,” they fueled the nation’s largest residential building boom in history.

Her hair was disheveled, which was unusual for her. The mini stroke she’d suffered after the sudden death of her longtime friend (right at the breakfast table. Put her head down and BOOM. Transitioned into whatever awaits us upon death with nary a peep) was evident in her slowed speech and inflexible fingers.
“I’m not going to be around much longer”, she informed me. I gently confirmed with a question that she was ready to move on. “Yes”, she said. “But I’ll need a perm first”.

Someone recently asked me what I planned to do when I retired. “Retire?” I asked. “I’m not planning to retire!” I can’t think of anything much worse. What would I do if I weren’t pursuing my passion? Yes, my work is my passion and I hope to be pursuing it for many more years.
I like to travel, just not for long periods of time. I don’t play golf. I do mess around in my garden, but this only takes a few hours of my week. I love to read, but I couldn’t read all day, every day.

What does this mean for a small business owner? For starters, you need to start marketing to Baby Boomers if you aren’t already doing so. Boomers are currently the only age demographic that’s growing in size. Baby Boomers make up about a third of the adult population—which mean one out of every three of your potential customers could be a Boomer. If you’re only targeting 18-49 year olds, you could be missing out on thousands, even millions, of customers.
