Combining life experience with working for top rated clients has always been a recipe for success. Senior modelling is as popular as ever – the demand hasn’t slowed down, and we expect to place many mature models with our clients for years to come.

When we receive bookings for modelling couples it’s a win-win for everyone. Our clients prepare their marketing adverts and know precisely which models are the most effective. They don’t merely request random models because they know their target audience.

For example, what is the end goal of an insurance company launching a new offer or deal on their policies? To get new and existing customers on board, highlighting why the brand is better than their competitors. In short, they want new audiences to take stock in their business, to trust them, and for customers to decide whether a brand’s products or services are more beneficial to customers than other ones. That’s the essence of most advertising, and models will always play a key part in this process.

A brand’s marketing strategy often calls for couples, and regularly these couples are in the over 50 years of age bracket. All our models – regardless of age – are well-received, but why are mature couples in the ascendency?

We can start by answering this with four clear points.

Firstly, on average, the UK population is living longer. It’s a small increase, but it’s an increase, nevertheless.

Secondly, perceptions change. Perhaps when decades ago a more mature model was seen as unusual, they are commonplace now. Because commercial models are used to evoke emotions and product placement among the public as opposed to illustrating latest fashions on catwalks, models of any age are indispensable to hundreds of brands that cater for the general population.

Thirdly, two models are often more effective than one. Sure, we place many single models in assignments, but our clients regularly prefer compatible modelling couples to marketing their services. Holiday and leisure brands cater for families and couples, so they always need couples to highlight what they offer. National charities and nursing homes are two more types of clients that often approach us for the best modelling mature couples.

Fourthly, brands crave confidence and experience for certain assignments. Not experience in modelling – experience in life. And that’s what our mature commercial models have in abundance.

Baby booms? The demand for mature couples continues to grow and there has never been a better tome for over 50’s to explore the world of commercial modelling. Couple modelling is going to boom!
