"Beth Sanders started LifeBio four years ago, after a visit with her grandmother
turned into a profound conversation about the older woman's life. Sanders built
a website that prompts visitors to supply information and images about significant
events and memories from someone's life. Then the site packages the material and
offers it to the memoirist as a hardcover book or a more affordable electronic
document that can be downloaded. Sanders says that her target customer is a boomer
who's spending time with an elderly parent or relative, and—not surprisingly—older
adults spend 30 percent more than average on reading material.”
