Profitable Business Solutions

If you want to build wealth, know who is spending money and where the money is being spent!

Australia & New Zealand are known for their outdoor culture and active lifestyles, so it is no surprise that the Wellness Industry is rapidly gaining momentum and astute investors are looking to capitalise on business opportunities the industry presents. C8 offers Solutions for the Wellness arena and incorporates world-renowned patented devices that are backed by science for today’s booming industry.

The Wellness Industry encompasses anything that nurtures the body and soul. Australians are already spending around $15 billion each year in the pursuit of looking and feeling good. With this expected to grow five fold by 2012, there has never been a better time to jump on the bandwagon and boost your profits!

The trend is sweeping the globe. According to the Natural Marketing Institute, US retail sales of packaged goods in the health industry reached US$68 billion in 2004. In fact, US Economist and Futurist Paul Zane Pilzer, predicts the Wellness Industry will become a trillion dollar industry in the US alone in the next 8 years.

In Australia, fuelled by our obesity and diabetes crisis, the fitness industry has grown from $700 million to $1 billion in the last 5 years and the number of people using fitness facilities is expected to double by 2010. Furthermore, the demand for healthy fast food options has inspired the birth of McDonalds’ Salad Plus range and the explosion of the juice bar phenomenon which has seen over 300 juice bars open nationwide.

From a health perspective, the aging population and particularly the demands of our modern lifestyle are affecting our health. Various degenerative diseases are on the rise and an increasing number of people (especially baby-boomers, many of whom are refusing to passively accept the aging process) are becoming proactive in optimising their health and are particularly interested in anti-aging solutions, especially preventative, non-invasive methods.

As consumers become more concerned with the environment and wellbeing, they are embracing a wellness approach for both their inner and outer beauty. Their interest in natural health and beauty treatments has also expanded with over 60% using complementary medicines and services at least once a year. A study from advertising agency Grey Worldwide found that 70% of Australians want to spend more time on their health and 80% are willing to pay more for a service if it gave them a greater sense of wellbeing. This cultural shift has led to a demand for treatments with an all-encompassing outcome with turning to ‘benefits for life’ and they also feel they get more for their money when treatments are results driven.
