Age Bands

WHAT ARE AGE BANDS?

Age bands are an effective planning fundament for the distribution of your products and services. Their power can also be harnessed to improve consumer targeting, to understand market opportunities and to quantify the consumers’ potential demand.

For example, brochures can be distributed more efficiently by advertising only those areas in which promising age groups are repres

The advanced age bands are particularly useful for analyzing young age groups, as their needs change at shorter intervals. For example, this data is valuable for providers of baby products, products for students, or mobile contracts for teenagers.

Since the advanced data classes cover ages 0 to 75, they are also particularly suitable for analyzing customer groups over 60.

Note: The extended age groups are only available in conjunction with the Advanced Sociodemographics-Bundle.
