Small-business owners need to understand those generational differences to successfully market products and services to different age groups. You can learn about selling across the ages with the free online Success Skills Seminar “Generational Marketing” from the National Association for the Self-Employed (NASE). It’s online now at www.EntrepreneurialConnection.com/skills/module28/skills_home.asp. You’ll find out about marketing to:
Mature consumers
Baby boomers
Generation X
Generation Y
