Description This book is about strategic thinking in Hispanic marketing. The size and economic importance of the Hispanic market in the US are attracting
enormous attention. The buying power of the US Hispanic market is now larger than the GDP of the entire country of Mexico, and it is
the second largest Hispanic market in the world. Businesses and institutions have launched major initiatives to reach this important
segment. Yet, the number of qualified individuals who understand the market is small; and many of those already catering to the market
still struggle to learn about its intricacies.
This book is a cultural approach to Hispanic marketing. Each of the chapters describes
and explains the cultural principles of Latino marketing. Recent case studies help marketers relate to the material pragmatically. The
book integrates concepts and practical examples and provides critical guidance to discern between alternative courses of action.
This
book is not about repeating well-known statistics, but about the Hispanic market as a cultural target. It takes a profound look at the
values, beliefs, and emotions of US Hispanics, which impact consumer behaviour. Each of the chapters has been the subject of public presentations
and lectures to marketing professionals. It is their positive reactions as well as the authors' dedication to Hispanic consumers which
motivated this book.
