Writing Car Reviews For Women In Today's Male World

By Jeanette Riggs


It is largely considered a male controlled world when you are talking about cars, trucks, and other such vehicles. But if you want to sell more vehicles to the female consumer you will need to get some car reviews for women in the magazines to grab their attention as well. Reviews are a sales tool just as a print advertisement can be.

Whenever you are trying to sell something to someone, you have to know about the person or group that you are trying to sell. You have to know their likes and dislikes. You have to know how they feel about various issue and products. Getting to know the consumer and asking them questions to do so is one of the oldest sales techniques.

It is easy to tell where a publication feels it gets it's readership from by looking at the types of companies that advertise in it's pages. Most car magazines have a male readership and therefore most of the articles are geared towards that audience. How many women are looking at car specs like 0-60 times and quarter miles speeds and times.

The same is true for cars and women. There are a lot of car magazines and other publications. All of these do a great job of reviewing the vehicles, their features, and the various other things that come with or go with cars. The problem that most manufacturers are starting to see now however is that these are all geared towards the male audience. Men are not the only ones buying cars.

Women are buying more and more cars these days and as such the car manufacturers are wanting to get their reviews and other publications to talk to the female car buyer. But they have to do this differently. They have to speak to them in a language that they understand. You cannot approach them as you would a "gear head" or someone who spends all day in a garage.

Not that they do not do this too, but the mainstream woman does not. What needs to be done is for the reviews to talk about some of the various automobile features that appeal to them. Talk about the features that would make it easier for them to get through their day. A car that gets great gas mileage while taking the kids to baseball practice.

The same goes for cars as it does for anything else. The advantage that manufacturers have in this situation is the fact that they already know a lot about women. Not specific women of course, but in general. That is more than enough information to get the discussion started and the article written with a female influence.

Car reviews for women are usually as simple as just talking about regular everyday features of the cars that regular people want. A backup camera and how easy it is to operate is a reviewable feature that would get a females attention yet still grab the male reader as well. Taking this approach as opposed to a strictly male viewpoint would do wonders.
