Think about it! Half of our children live, 100 years old. The consequences for our society are truly remarkable. This is particularly true for marketers. Do not apply our current marketing strategy for this new generation.

For example, how a lifetime guarantee? This practice began in the 1950s, when marketing to consumers is born. Back in 1955 the life expectancy of Americans was only 69.6 years. In essence, the bet was that we would die before the product has. Now the sellers have to add another 30 years for their reporting.
