Hispanics on Screen “I Want to See Myself on Screen, But…”
We have just come out of yet another award season and one more year has gone by without the universal recognition that Latinos are not making any progress either in front or behind the camera. This blog is a slight departure from our usual pieces on the world of Hispanic advertising – a personal riff on the industry as d2H prepares to make a big splash regarding our upcoming entry into the world of entertainment marketing.
February 25, 2020/by Staff WriterTotal Market Pendulum – To Be or Not To Be Total Market
Let’s face it, the Total Market strategy does not work, especially for performance marketers and retail.
On paper, the Total Market approach looks good and sounds better in the boardroom. By definition it “proactively integrates diverse segment considerations…throughout the entire strategic process …to enhance value and growth effectiveness” (Association of Hispanic Advertising Agencies).

$1 + $1 = $3 Hispanic Marketing ROI
A “dolar” is a “dollar” no matter what we call it. Except, for some reason, when it comes to budgeting for Hispanic. Even though Hispanics over-index on the usage of many categories, and even though they demonstrate higher LTVs on many services, the market does not command marketing shares of budget commensurate to its share of the population.

November 11, 2019/by Staff WriterAuthentic or Not
So, yet another article about authenticity in Spanish-language advertising. You may wonder – what more is there to say that has not already been said? You may well be right. However – and overcoming all my cynical misgivings – I will attempt to address the subject and hopefully spark conversations about this abused concept.
October 16, 2019/by Staff WriterThe Culture War and What We Must Do About It
In today’s hyper-partisan and bi-polar environment there is a culture war flaming the fans of division in our society. At the center of all this are the Hispanic Immigrant, the Hispanic Community and the Hispanic Consumer Market (HCM).
So what are we in the Hispanic advertising and marketing ecosystem to do about it? To start, how about a conversation without fear of being too “political”. Certainly we can talk honestly about such an existential topic without getting partisan.

The Unifying Power of Spanish
How Important is Spanish Today Among U.S. Hispanics?

Success in the U.S. Hispanic Market
Starts with Enculturation – Not Diversity
Which comes first for success in the Hispanic market – corporate diversity or marketing enculturation? I’ll get to the latter in a moment. Diversity is a worthy and necessary cause to be sure. Its benefits to any company and our society extend far beyond just sales and marketing.

(Re)Introducing the Hispanic “Viejennial”
As an independent Hispanic advertising agency we have been asking ourselves an existential question for much of the last decade – why does our trade seem to be abandoning the US Hispanic “Viejennials?” Ever since the Millennial generation became the advertising industry’s target celebre, it seems that no one, except for Medicare Advantage Plans, seems to care much about the Hispanic Adults 35+ that actually grew our industry into what it is today.
