As marketers, our role is simple: deliver growth. Today’s modern family – our customer – is increasingly multicultural by nature and we must make sure our work reflects that. For this reason, our companies should reach out to consumers in relevant and meaningful ways that ultimately have the ability to connect with our customers while lifting corporate growth. Everyone should feel included and valued. It’s time to celebrate diversity. Highlight what makes us different and what brings us together as a society.
According to Vincent Létang, EVP Global Market Intelligence and author of the report: “The US ad market had a great first half thanks to a strong economic environment as well as media innovation and a dynamic technology vertical. Digital media ad sales matured, as expected, but continued to grow close to +20% yoy, while editorial media performed better than expected thanks a recovery of radio, and OOH in full swing. We forecast an 11th year of growth in 2020 as record political spending will generate an all-time high of $5.5 billion in incremental ad revenue and mitigate the effect of the expected economic slowdown”

The U.S. Hispanic population is diverse. These nearly 60 million individuals trace their heritage to Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America and to Spain, each with distinct demographic and economic profiles. But as migration patterns from Latin America change, the origins of U.S. Hispanics are beginning to shift. Here are key facts about how the U.S. Hispanic origin groups are changing and how they differ from one another.
My colleague Daren Poole pointed me to a study by the Financial Times (FT) and the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising (IPA) designed to understand why the balance of marketing spend has shifted from brand-building to performance campaigns. It suggests that poor knowledge of how brands create value over the short and long-term may be at fault. by Nigel Hollis

Currently, more than 64 million Hispanics live in the United States, making this group the second fastest-growing population segment since 2000, with 83% growth.
In the latest edition of its annual report, the Selig Center for Economic Growth at the University of Georgia’s business school pegged total buying power of the US Hispanic population at $1.539 trillion in 2018.

America is responsible for nearly half (48%) of the world’s advertising spending. This is followed the closest by measured nations in Europe, which represent 30% of ad spending. Together, these two regions account for nearly 80% of Nielsen-estimated global advertising budget and are driving the most annual growth in these investments. You’d expect this wide reach to result in consumers addicted to the new products that surround them. But interestingly enough, compared to the rest of the world, consumers in these two regions are the least open to trying new things.
