Art & Science: How ThinkNow Delivers the Story You Need

“As long as there have been campfires, humans have gathered around them and conveyed their view of the world through the use of stories.” Geoffrey Berwind nailed it. Storytelling has long since been hailed by content marketers as one of the most effective ways to capture the time and attention of prospects. Stories are powerful connectors. When told or written masterfully, they ignite the imagination and spark curiosity. But why are we talking about storytelling here in the context of market research? It’s simple.

You’ve been there, trapped in a dim boardroom, eyes glazing over, walking through a presentation deck 100+ slides deep chock full of charts and graphs.

For market researchers, 2016 was one for the record books. Election poll predictions were an epic fail. Historic demographic shifts rocked traditional models. And we’re still arguing over the definition of Total Market. It’s fair to say that the market research industry is in dire need of some soul searching. And as a researcher myself, I’ve done a little of my own and have come up with three Hispanic market research predictions for 2017:

Remember: Election Results Are Not Marketing Results

What to focus on in 2017 for Multicultural Marketing There has been a lot of hand-wringing in the marketing community since the presidential election – especially among multicultural marketers or those targeting constituencies viewed to have ‘lost’ in the recent match-up. When we woke up on November 9th it appeared that the world had shifted and the idea that the U.S. was becoming a more multicultural, diverse, and inclusive nation was somehow invalidated.

Mobile App Usage Among Hispanics Across Acculturation levels

There are just over 46 million Hispanic mobile phone users and this number is expected to grow to 51 million by 2020. Of this number, 84% own a smartphone (16% own a feature phone). When asked about their feelings toward their mobile phones, 27% of Hispanics say that they are addicted to them and over 23% prefer using a mobile device to a computer. While the numbers are compelling, insights into the similarities and distinctions across generational (acculturation) levels have been lacking, to date.

As a research company dedicated to researching multicultural consumers, we have welcomed the growing number of panel companies in the space since the need for Hispanic online sample is so great.
