Hispanic Social Media Report
Hispanic Social Media Report

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) January 28, 2014 -- Today, EC Hispanic Media announced the completion of an intensive study on behaviors and “like” motivators of US Hispanics in the Facebook Eco-System and the release of its Social Media Report "US Hispanics and Facebook: The Generation of Growth."

The "US Hispanics and Facebook: The Generation of Growth" report clearly shows what US Hispanics like and follow inside of Facebook while also detailing purchasing habits, demographics, and behavioral patterns. This is key information for any advertising executive targeting the market.

While many brands treat digital marketing and social media marketing to US Hispanics as a box to check off, the numbers amount to a clarion call—to remain relevant, brands must appeal to Hispanics online.

Post this

The study reveals that one of the main “like” motivators and decision influencers for the audience is to receive discounts and promotions while fun or entertainment is a motivator for only 36% of US Hispanic Facebook users.

A crucial finding that marketing executives must take into account is that, according to the study, while only 50% of Facebook users in the US login to Facebook in any given day, an overwhelming 89% of US Hispanics log on to the social network every day with 31% logging in from work and an additional 78% from a mobile device.

“US Hispanics are very much in play online and on social media, but especially in Facebook,” said Martha de la Torre, CEO of EC Hispanic Media. “While many brands treat digital marketing and social media marketing to US Hispanics as a box to check off, the numbers amount to a clarion call—to remain relevant, brands must appeal to Hispanics online. This is a direct challenge to marketing strategists, who must coordinate campaigns at the local, regional, and national levels while using traditional and digital channels. This is the Generation of Growth.”

“Facebook remains an untapped media to reach US Hispanics,” said Elias Chavando, Managing Partner of Applied Marketing Strategies. “And companies have a unique opportunity to leverage this to further their own growth as US Hispanics are eager for high quality digital content catered to them that only exists minimally right now.”

The full report, "US Hispanics and Facebook: The Generation of Growth" also answers these key questions:

• What are the purchase motivators for US Hispanics online and in Facebook?
• What are the key demographics of US Hispanics in Facebook?
• How important is a bilingual online shopping experience for Hispanics, particularly in Facebook?
• What are the types of content that US Hispanics are attracted to in Facebook?
• What language do US Hispanics use to communicate in Facebook?

The study, commissioned by EC Hispanic Media, surveyed Spanish-speaking US Hispanic Facebook users and was conducted during the months of November and December of 2013 and was directed and conducted by Applied Marketing Strategies.

The report US Hispanics and Facebook, The Generation of Growth is available for purchase by contacting EC Hispanic Media Insights.
