I love this angle! My mom just turned 74 this month and bought herself an iPad. She's totally connected and completely capable. Though I don't think she's interested in Internet marketing per se, she's a great example of a senior who defintely could acquire the skills if so inclined. I have no doubt that seniors could find their niche in the online marketing world. Thanks for a fresh perspective.

Stacy;
Thank you for weighing in on this. Although I have found learning about Internet marketing a bit of an uphill challenge I am sure it helps my grey matter firing.
If I had a wish it would be for a trustworthy source that would teach the process in detail for those of us who are new. It appears to many people that purport themselves to help really only want to exploit.

Good luck John.
Be careful about promises being made and don't chase the next golden wonder idea to make you rich. Try to find someone that you can follow and trust. Take a look at Grandma's Internet Marketing blog. On this site we are trying to talk about the journey that seniors have learning. You can find some ideas there and join in on sharing your learning experiences.
