The Billion Dollar Mom Consumer Market: How to Attract and Convert This Powerful Demographic

Moms. You might picture them chasing after toddlers or packing lunches, and yes, part of their reality involves those things. But here's a fact that may surprise you: they're the largest economic force driving consumer markets. Picture them less as stressed-out parents and more as confident shoppers with credit cards in hand. They're not just buying diapers and snacks; they're the real decision-makers behind a vast range of household purchases. In this episode, I spoke with Maria Bailey, an authority on marketing to moms, award-winning author, radio host, former Lifetime TV host, speaker, and CEO of BSM Media. We discuss how moms with credit cards represent a significant buying group and emphasize the importance of tailoring marketing and product development to this demographic, even for products where moms might not be the end users.
