THE retirement show visitors are Your Customers
In the United Kingdom the grey market...
- Is the fastest growing sector of the population
- Already includes more than 20 milllion mature people
- Has over £175 billion of disposable income
- Had an estimated worth of £500 million at last year's Retirement Show alone.
These people are your customers! With such vast spending power the over 50s outshop those under 50 by 20% every day of the week. All this means that the visitors to The Retirement Show are a captive audience who are ready to spend - with you!
- More than half of the visitors to last year's show were in the highest ABC1 social classes
- Nearly two thirds were already retired and looking for information
- Over 50% of those who came said they would visit the show again
- Another 25% have a positive interest in returning to the show
- The average age of visitors was 59 years old.
These are visitors who have an active interest in the services and products your company is providing.
testimonials
Some of the exhibitors at last year's show made the following comments (for full exhibitor comments please click here):
"Well done, and I think the show went very
well indeed - administratively your team served us well and I got
all that I paid for. Attendances seemed good and we were busy.
Overall we enjoyed it and felt it to be very worthwhile." Jeremy Clare, Whatever Next...?
"We were very pleased with the show and would
go as far as to say it was the best show we've done. We were too
busy to spend as much time as we would have liked visiting the
other stands and attractions. Thanks again for a great show." Philip
Hann, Retirement Today Magazine
"A big ‘thank you’ from all of
us! The organisation ran like clockwork and we came away from the
show planning for next year." Caroline Hull, Girlings
"This was by far the most fulfilling event I have
been to - probably because of the target audience of people in
the 50 plus age range. The panel discussion I took part in was
extremely productive for us. We were understaffed on the stand
to cope with the volume of enquiries. We will definitely go again
to this event in London, and to the events in Manchester and Glasgow." Malcolm McLean, Chief Executive, The Pensions Advisory Service
"Well done for staging an excellent show,
we enjoyed ourselves and were pleased with the volume and quality
of visitors interested in our products."
Simon Martyr, Wentworth Wooden Jigsaws
"The Show was great! I want to be in
next year's show in London. We had a steady stream of visitors
and it was certainly worth the investment for us. I would
be very happy for you to quote me on being a satisfied stand holder. Feedback
from visitors about the show was also very positive. Very
good, very interesting, very useful." Lynne Nesbit, The Brooke
"It was truly a great exhibition and
I think the two day event was a success. Keep us in mind for any
future events." Tamara Matthews, Bowel Cancer UK
"I am happy to say that we found the whole event to be worthwhile.
I will certainly be considering next year's show in London. The
organisation was very good. I feel that visitors to this kind of
show benefit from having smaller organisations exhibiting as the
welcome and overall service they receive is often far more personal." Tim
Botting, Premier Cruise Club
"We thought the show was a great way to
show the public our service. We were very impressed with the show.
We will definitely be attending the
event in Manchester." Pat Stubbs, Pension Tracing Team
