If you ever wonder why so much advertising money is spent on teen buyers instead of the demographic that actually has some money to spend (baby-boomers), the answer is that once you've established a buying pattern, you'll continue to buy that product for life.
That's why Judann Pollack's recent article in Ad Age regarding the 15 biggest baby-boomer brands is so interesting. All the products came of age just as the boomers did, and the boomers have never strayed since. I'm surprised at a few of these, and even more surprised at their ranking, but having lived through that era I can understand the choices.
