Mark McCrindle this week debriefed the 13 operators that contributed to the Village Communities Report, an analysis of the attitudes and motivating influences of the 65-75 year old Builders Generation. The $155,000 research study found, amongst many new insights, that resort and lifestyle offerings have little value in this market plus there are six clear and identifiable sub cohorts that each have different triggers that work in ads and sales presentations.

Two franchises to the Report remain available at $10,350. Contact Chris Baynes at chrisb@villages.com.au or Mark McCrindle at mm@mccrindle.com.au.
