The U.S. Hispanic Audience Will Only Gain Cultural And Economic Prominence In The Coming Years
The U.S. Hispanic audience is very connected. This can be a positive or negative for brands, of course. Why? Because referrals and word of mouth can work both ways. So make sure your brand speaks our culture. A constantly connected community can become your most influential consumers and best advocates for your brand.
What exactly should marketers be doing to connect with this audience?
First, be aware that the U.S. Hispanic population is drawn from an increasingly diverse mix of countries. It’s not a monolithic market block.
While Hispanics of Mexican origin account for 63.3% (36 million) of the nation’s Hispanic population in 2015, by far the largest share of any origin group, this number has gone down from a recent peak of 65.7 in 2008, as fewer migrants from Mexico arrive in the U.S. and the number leaving the country rises.” Pew Research Center
Secondly, be cognizant that U.S. Hispanic consumers are highly bilingual online.
Thirdly, keep in mind that impressions in the Latino community make a lasting impression and if that first impression is missing an important ingredient, a second impression may never become a reality. Hispanic marketing agencies help you connect with the Hispanic consumer.
