Abstract: | This paper examines the Grey market, exploring whether or not it exists as discrete sector and whether the conventional age band structure is the most useful way of segmenting it. It is suggested that marketers and advertisers have failed to exploit the size and wealth of the sector and described the use of an experimental approach called 'turnstile interviewing' to help understanding of the generation gap. |
