Is your multicultural Marketing just a diverse cast and a translated script?
Briana Méndez, Associate Director of Audience Insights and Strategy at SiriusXM Media, helps brands get past that.
She’s a Puerto Rican kid from the Florida suburbs who got her start at Remezcla, and now she helps brands understand 250 million listeners without flattening them into 1 demographic box. Because if you talk to everyone, you talk to no one.
She shares what happened when SiriusXM Media and the agency Alma tested in-culture audio creative (who it worked on might surprise you), and what Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl show proved about going all in on cultural specificity.
Plus, why Gen Z men are swapping music for podcasts, and the “Feel Core” trend that could change where your ads should run.
If you’re a Marketer who wants to reach multicultural audiences without shoving people in a box, this episode is for YOU.
