It’s a massive, untapped market that controls 83% of the country’s wealth.
It accounts for over half of all consumer spending in the U.S. every year.
Yet, despite its size — over 135 million strong and growing daily…
It’s a market that most businesses have yet to “crack” — because they don’t understand how to “speak” to the people who make up this market.
So they’re desperate for skilled writers who understand how to connect with this audience.
And that’s what our new report is all about!
