Key takeaways
- When targeting a 50+ audience, look for someone who can demonstrate actual usage and speak the language of the target demographic.
- Start by defining a purchase situation rather than just a broad demographic profile.
- Avoid asking for a firsthand personal testimonial about a product the creator hasn't actually used.
When marketing to an audience over 50, choose a creator who can clearly demonstrate product use and speak the target audience's language. Visual age alone isn't enough: tone of voice, context, and a clear grasp of the product are essential.
The Right Approach
Start by defining a real-world purchasing scenario rather than just a demographic profile. Next, review product demos and speaking samples in each portfolio. Have the creator confirm they match the age bracket required for the brief, their availability, and their filming setup—without assuming personal experience based on their profile.
Implementation Example
Fictional example to adapt, with no implied client results: For reading glasses, the script could show transitioning from a phone screen to a book, then sliding them into a case. The creator highlights observable features; she doesn't claim to treat a medical condition or represent every woman in that age group.
Mistake to Avoid
Avoid asking for an authentic personal review on a product the creator hasn't used. A product showcase role should always remain transparent.
