I’m Rebecca Forstadt Olkowski, and I founded BabyBoomster.com in 2012 as a lifestyle and travel blog for active older women over 50. I’m also active on Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest, and Amazon
For over 40 years, I have been a professional voiceover actor and am a member of SAG-AFTRA. My home base is Los Angeles and I am a bonified member of the Baby Boomer generation born in 1953.
I welcome brand collaborations and partnership opportunities with companies that authentically serve my audience. If you are a brand or public relations representative, I would love to know more about your clients, products, or services and how we can work together.

My verticals
Even though my audience is considered to be seniors, my audience is still mobile, loves to travel, learn new things, dress and look well, start businesses, and share their expertise. When considering a collaboration, please note that I PREFER NOT to promote elderly products such as adult diapers, supplements, or fad diets, but rather focus on sexier topics like travel, fashion, beauty, entertainment, and aging positively.

As a blogger and digital content creator, I can help you spread your message to the over 50 market
I love to write about travel, smart eating, wellness, fashion, beauty, entertainment, fitness, and lifestyle for active older women. Brand collaborations include sponsored posts, affiliate partnerships, UGC videos, and Amazon shoppable videos. I am available to attend and promote press events, guest on podcasts, and other media.
Baby Boomers comprise 40% of the market share
Baby Boomers were born between 1946 – 1964, which currently makes them between 60 – 78 years old. There are over 70,000,000 Baby Boomer consumers, which makes it a huge and affluent market that controls 70% of all disposable income in the U.S. Baby Boomers built the Internet and are fairly tech-savvy.
According to Statista, 52% of Baby Boomers shop online on their computers, 24% on their phones, and 11% on their tablets.
Forbes says, 96% of Baby Boomers use search engines, 95% use email, and 92% shop for products and services online rather than shopping in stores and shopping malls.
Ways I collaborate with brands
- Press events – For travel-related brands and services, please consider me for FAM tours, tourism board events, cruises, hotel reviews, tours, media events, and Los Angeles and Southern California blogger and social media influencer events.
- Amazon influencer – I create video reviews on Amazon and am always looking for new products to try. For other platforms such as YouTube, Instagram or Tiktok, I charge $150 per video.
- Sponsored posts – I will promote lifestyle brands by publishing a dedicated post free of ads and full-width along with social media shares for a fee. My rates depend on the extent and requirements of our collaboration.
- Affiliate programs – If your company has an affiliate program that is not on Amazon that would be a good fit for BabyBoomster.com, please let me know about it. If acceptable, I will apply to host text links on this blog to promote your brand. Contact me at affiliates@babyboomster.com I prefer to work with accounts at CJ, Shareasale, Awin, Impact, Mavely, Brandcycle, and Collective Voice.
- Interviews – I conduct interviews and post product reviews on my YouTube channel to share information and expertise that will benefit my audience. If you represent a client who would like to set up a discussion, please contact me at rebecca@babyboomster.com.
Note to authors and press agents: I get offered many books to read and review. However, there is only so much time in the day and I am an avid TV watcher. Unless the book is truly compelling, there is a chance I will not have the time to read it. Just being honest. Authors are encouraged to submit guest posts for review. I will also feature your book on my Amazon page here if it relates to the over-50 demographic or is written by an older author.
