Huge Marketing Opportunity That Has Hardly Been Tapped

11 replies
As many of you already know, the internet marketing seems like an industry which is dominated by men who tend to promote things for men, which of course are most likely to be bought by men. Due to this, some are finding that this leaves a huge online marketing gap to be filled: women

More and more, I'm starting to find the immense potential in this demographic as studies show that women have the "purchasing power" in today's online landscape. While tougher for a male IM'er than a female IM'er to break, this doesn't mean that it should be ignored. The female marketers out there obviously have an advantage since they understand the wants and needs of the female demographic better, but even dudes can understand if they perhaps try to gain a a different perspective from asking say: girlfriends, wifes, sisters, mothers, etc. Nothing wrong with thinking outside the box.

Recently I came across this video which reveals a great deal about this potential demographic. It took place at the NYC Affiliate Summit and while it is a couple years old, it does bring about some very insightful info I believe other Warriors can still learn from. Enjoy:

        Yep, I've been there before. It was a huge topic of discussion here on WF at one point.

        I'm just pointing out a huge potential to inform others. I've been interested in this myself as I've been hearing a lot about it recently. After watching this video, I knew other Warriors would enjoy it.

        I'm pretty sure there's a lot of potential out there. It might take some research and testing, but it should eventually pay off generously $$

    there is a lot of Women only groups. Tons of them. It seems that women trust each other more.

    Funny though aside from business, Most Women I know say they prefer to work with Men.
