SCENARIO
When tasked to create a brand campaign for the state of Florida,
the team quickly looked for unique audience segments.
After exploring the "Florida Man" stereotype we found that 13.2% of boomers "un-retired" in 2023. Creating a new target for LinkedIn and laying the foundation for our campaign.
Only 3.8% of LinkedIn users are over the age of 55. Meaning the un-retiree market is likely either not on the platform or not actively using it.
Un-retirees are still a wide market, and to test the viability of targeting this audience it’d be best to target a specific region.
Chosen Region - Florida
Florida is a state that has become a retirement hotspot due to:
-
Low property taxes
-
No income tax
-
Warm weather
-
Entertainment
-
TARGET OPPORTUNITY
13.2% of boomers "un-retired" in 2023, creating a new target for LinkedIn. Most un-retirees note that some of the deciding factors in un-retiring was a lack of fulfillment and a longing for routine.
Insight - Retirees spend their work career chasing responsibility, instead of fulfillment.
STRATEGY
LinkedIn offers a chance to chase fulfillment, not responsibility.
CREATIVE SOLUTION
A year-long campaign that pushes un-retirees to pursue self-fulfilling gigs through the LinkedIn platform.
