Podcast appearances and mentions of ken gronbach

This Flashback Friday is from episode 249 published last March 20, 2012. Many demographic changes are taking place, with the Baby Boomers, a large generation, retiring, and Generation Y, a larger generation than the Baby Boomers, consuming at record levels.  Join Jason Hartman and demographer, Ken Gronbach, as they discuss this upcoming “storm.”  Ken describes Generation Y as an exciting generation, where the United States is the only country with this large of a group at the present time, and that it is very important that businesses recognize and anticipate their markets as Generation Y grows up. Generation X is more of a mystery generation because of its smaller size, which makes it less of a valuable market.  Ken believes that the United States' best days are ahead as people bail out of the European Union. He also believes that China's economic future is bleak due to artificial tampering with the population, with demographic numbers showing China in trouble economically within ten years, struggling to feed themselves within 15 years. Ken shows how the housing market is being held hostage by big bank foreclosures and why this log jam will soon correct and precipitate a restoration of the United States economy. Ken also talks about how manufacturing will return to the United States with a vengeance because the United States is the only industrialized nation with a huge young highly skilled workforce.   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

When it comes to a strategy for real estate investing, one of the most important things you can do is to know about the demographics of a particular market, or simply, the people who live there. Investors need to be asking questions like: How many people live there? Is that number growing or shrinking? Are they mostly singles, families, young people or older people?  How will the generational differences impact the kind of housing that's needed? And what will the market look like 10 years from now?   In this episode, you'll get answers to those questions and many more from internationally recognized demographer Ken Gronbach, president of KGC Direct, LLC. He's able to forecast societal, commercial, economic, cultural, and political phenomena with uncanny accuracy and will talk about an astronomical need for homes in the U.S. over the next decade. He also compares the U.S. to other parts of the world, and according to Ken, strong demand for housing in the U.S. will not be going away.   If you'd like to learn more about demographics, check out his two books: “Upside: Profiting from the Profound Demographic Shifts Ahead” and “The Age Curve: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Storm.”    And to learn more about real estate investing, please join RealWealth and look through our website.

Boomers are rich. They bought houses when they were affordable and sold off at the right times. They purchased hovels downtown, they sold for millions. Didn't know how to pick stocks so invested long-term, a boring yet profitable strategy. Patience and delayed gratification have been virtues. As the wealthiest generation in history, Boomers currently hold $2.6 trillion in buying power. Today, Boomers are RE-INVENTING their lives. They are finding NEW places to work, NEW places to travel to, NEW ways to spend their days, NEW ways to spend time with their children and grandchildren, and NEW ways to stay vital and connected as they age. Each choice represents enormous business opportunity. Today's boomers are planning their full retirement at 80, not 65, and are looking for second, third, or fourth careers or new businesses. Shrinking, fixed incomes, minimum spending are out the window. Ken Gronbach, author of Common Census: Counterintuitive Guide to Generational Marketing states: "They know what they want. At this point in their lives they want only three things: Life made easy. Time saved. Not to be ripped off. Boomers already own a lot of stuff. Their needs are getting increasingly fewer, thus they are less interested in or seduced by things. Boomers are service consumers more than product buyers. They want nothing as a thing; they want a thing that gives time, convenience, freedom, or ease. Boomers still think in terms of "classic credibility". Brand names matter, credible, relevant celebrity endorsements matter, years in business, professional affiliations, access to live humans for resolving problems all matter. Above all else. Boomers have had enough life experience to have been disappointed or felt ripped off by a number of purchases and marketers. And they are not eager to repeat the experience.

"Demographic Winter" occurs when a nation's population growth is so bottlenecked that its labor is unable to sustain the economy in basics like tax revenue, health care services--and food. Much of the developed world, with laggardly birthrates, is poised to tumble off that demographic cliff.   Ken Gronbach is an internationally lauded demographer. Analyzing population macrotrends, he forecasts calamities, upswings, and political and economic changes in the near future.   He joins to discuss the “Demographic Winter” poised to afflict much of the world, plus what the United States can anticipate over the next two decades as Baby Boomers retire and a fresh generation steps up.

Ken is a marketing guru who regularly provides counsel to Fortune 500 companies as well as large and small privately held businesses across the United States. In his new 2008 book  Age Curve: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Storm, published by The American Management Association, Ken takes you through a fascinating common sense understanding of shifting demography and the related opportunities and challenges.  The demographic landscape in the United States is made up a series of waves that are about twenty years in duration. It would follow that business will rise and fall according to the critical mass of customers heading toward it. He is interviewed here by QRCA member and VIEWS book reviewer, Tom Lutz.

How do you profit from the profound demographic shift that's coming ahead? If you want to predict the future with accuracy, only one crystal ball will do and that's people by the numbers. By looking at demographics, we can predict the future from commercial to social to political to cultural trends. Counting people reveals what the trend will be over the next several years. That's because it's based on what people are doing from fertility to the location, meaning where they live and to aging. For instance, women are on the rise in the workforce nowadays, shattering glass ceilings. Meanwhile, Gen Y or the Millennials, the largest generation in history, are going to be moving into their own home soon. These are two of the key changes that will be determining the fortunes and futures of many people and what is going to happen over the next several years.

The other Furniture manufacturing company called, house of Davinci where they produce high-end furniture. One of the furniture pieces in the new furniture line will be commissioned by Red Bull! The reason why I wanted to speak with Chris is because I'm looking for companies who are giving to their communities – you will see me interview more companies that are interested in uplifting people, who are positively impactful. They are helping humanity by: Paying it forward and giving back Making the world a better place to be & Loving People And Chris Wilson is because he tends to hire people who need help the most, unemployed – returning citizens who just came out of prison. If you haven't heard last week's episode with Ken Gronbach, we talked about demographics of the USA. If you are interested in this topic, feel free to check out the last episode, constructrr.com/ep34. One thing I ask Ken about is diversity and demographic trends in America. He mentions 2 things: latino immigrants have been contributing to the economy in really important way and are a growing population that we should be paying attention to.

Bill Horan talks with Ken Gronbach, author of Upside, about how we can profit from upcoming demographic shifts.

Bill Horan talks with Ken Gronbach, author of Upside, about how we can profit from upcoming demographic shifts.

  Research shows the only real way to forecast the future is to count people. Demographics expert and author Ken Gronbach says as waves of generations are born and age, we can determine our fortunes and futures. And in his recent book, Upside: Profiting from the Profound Demographic Shifts Ahead, Ken goes over the seven trends that will shape the coming decade. 

Ken Gronbach, author of: Upside...

Many demographic changes are taking place, with the Baby Boomers, a large generation, retiring, and Generation Y, a larger generation than the Baby Boomers, consuming at record levels.  Join Jason Hartman and demographer, Ken Gronbach, as they discuss this upcoming “storm.” Ken describes Generation Y as an exciting generation, where the United States is the only country with this large of a group at the present time, and that it is very important that businesses recognize and anticipate their markets as Generation Y grows up. Generation X is more of a mystery generation because of its smaller size, which makes it less of a valuable market.  Ken believes that the United States' best days are ahead as people bail out of the European Union. He also believes that China's economic future is bleak due to artificial tampering with the population, with demographic numbers showing China in trouble economically within ten years, struggling to feed themselves within 15 years. Ken shows how the housing market is being held hostage by big bank foreclosures and why this log jam will soon correct and precipitate a restoration of the United States economy. Ken also talks about how manufacturing will return to the United States with a vengeance because the United States is the only industrialized nation with a huge young highly skilled workforce. Kenneth W. Gronbach is a gifted keynote speaker and a nationally recognized expert and futurist in the field of Demography and Generational Marketing. Ken entertains his audiences with his own special brand of wit, humor and clear communication. He makes the science of shifting demography come alive with real life examples that make it relevant to today's culture, business climate and economy.  In his book “Age Curve, How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Storm”, published by The American Management Association, Ken takes you through a fascinating common sense understanding of shifting demography and the related opportunities and challenges. The demographic landscape in the United States is made up a series of waves that are about twenty years in duration. It would follow that business will rise and fall according to the critical mass of customers heading toward it. Ken's latest book “Decades of Difference, Making it Work” (HRD Press), about the United States workforce, was released in October 2010. Ken also writes for the CNBC Guest Blog. Ken's perspective is macro, a view from 30,000 feet, and very big picture. Demographers are able to forecast markets, societal phenomena, and economics with uncanny accuracy because they count people, not money or things. For example crime has been down in the United States for the last twenty years because the number of high risk crime committers (men 15 to 30 years old) has been low and fully employed. This is because the fertility in the United States dipped sharply between 1965 and 1984 creating a deficit in our population of about nine million people. This shortage of young people in the labor force also drove labor costs up and manufacturing off shore. Ken says the Age Curve will change the way businesses market to consumers and that a sea of entrepreneurial business starts will rule as the economy turns around.
