Our aim is to help brands and businesses authentically connect with midlife women. We’ll equip you with insights, tools, and strategies to make a meaningful difference in the lives of midlife women.
Midlife women deserve better
Our proprietary research tells us that 69% of midlife women feel invisible and 62% think brand advertising rarely shows someone they can relate to.
They think brands either ignore them, assume them to be much older than they are, or turn them off with unrealistic aspirations. Here’s just one voice, but we’ve heard it over and over again.
“The media makes the over 50s feel ancient. They think we want to go to afternoon tea dances and they think you want to be called ‘lady’. I’ll be a lady when I’m 90, no actually I won’t even be old enough when I’m 90 to be called lady. We’re not fuddy duddies, we’re still young.”

They designed Midlife Women to help reframe the way marketers represent women, once and for all. And to prove that doing so can build a competitive advantage for businesses.
