Comparing the Hispanic and non-Hispanic markets: how different are they?
Article Abstract:
The market orientation of Hispanic and non-Hispanic consumers was studied. There was an impression that marketing to Hispanics requires distinct marketing methodologies. Two studies on the market preferences of Hispanics and non-Hispanics conducted in the 1980s and 1990s were analyzed. The first studied brand loyalty while the second was about attitudes on choosing legal services. Both studies indicated that the differences of market expectations between Hispanics and non-Hispanics were small. It was, however, suggested that marketing strategies aimed at the Hispanic market are likely to be more successful than those that did not take into account ethnicity.
