You and your clients may not give much thought to digital audio usage in America. It’s just big music streaming services being used, right? Wrong: At least if your clients plan on targeting Hispanics with their advertisements.
According to H Code’s 2020 Hispanic Digital Fact Pack, 85% of Hispanic consumers listen to online audio content and 73% stream said audio from sources other than Spotify, iHeart Radio and Pandora. Hispanics listen to more digital audio than watch video, movies and TV online (83%). Each week, Hispanics listen to music online as follows:
- 1 to 2 Hours: 23%
- 3 to 4 Hours: 25%
- 6 to 9 Hours: 18%
Hispanics are spending most of their time on the internet on their smartphones (56%) followed by their laptops (13%).
If your client hasn’t been targeting Hispanics with their digital audio advertisements, now is the time. 78% of Hispanics don’t think that they’re targeted enough by brands, probably because advertisers are unaware of the power this community has. One in five (18.3%) Americans is Hispanic. Not only that, H Code found that, if Hispanics in the U.S. formed their own country, they’d have the 8th biggest global economy. Even now, they have a gross domestic product of $2.3 trillion that is growing 28% faster than the U.S.’s economy as a whole.
When Hispanic consumers like a brand, 80% continue to be loyal to that brand. And all your clients have to do to get 75% of Hispanic consumers to view them in a more favorable light and consider buying their products is to make an effort to include elements of Hispanic culture in their advertisements.
