Recommendation

America’s Hispanic population is growing while the country’s non-Hispanic white population shrinks, creating an imperative for companies to learn to market to Hispanic consumers.

Mizrahi draws from extensive industry experience as a marketing executive and ad agency head, and the book includes ten case studies illustrating successful Hispanic marketing initiatives.
