Corporations must recognize and incorporate Hispanic cultural values into their products, services, and communications. But what's the best method? What works? What doesn't? And more fundamentally, how can those corporations connect with today's Hispanic consumer? 'Hispanic Marketing' shows marketers how to best reach this widely misunderstood demographic, not by repeating well-known statistics, but through viewing the Hispanic market as a cultural target.
