GROWING PERSONAL CARE PRODUCT MARKET

While historically, this may have been more skewed towards women, men are now using more hygiene/health/grooming products.

On average: • Women use 12• Men use 6.

More “things” require more counter space or storage.

EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE

Just as they do at home, guests need a “place” to put things – everything

easily findable and within reach.

Remember the rule of thumb: at least as good as what they

have at home – if not better. Photo by: stylecaster.com

REMEMBER: AVERAGES

Average family size: 2.54 people.

Average family home size: 2600 sq. ft.

Single family homes average 2.56 baths or – 1.05 people per bath. Photo by: athomesense.com

Or put another way: people don’t typically share baths at home anymore.

COMPLAINTS

While some people might complain out of sheer sadism, most people don’t. • Confused about

what they thought they were getting.• Most try to

resolve their problems offline first.

Most people resort to writing bad online reviews out of sheer desperation: they didn’t feel like they were

heard.

HOW TO ADDRESS THIS?

Don’t assume a “low maintenance” traveler. Plan for the “high maintenance traveler.”

Plan space use for more than 1 person.
