15. EMERGING HISPANIC MARKETS
EDUCATION PROCESS
Going forward, a substantial part of
the growth of the Hispanic advertising
and media market is going to be in
Emerging Hispanic Markets. As LER’s
Phillip Woodie says, “it’s a continuing
education process and a story which has
to be told at the client level as well as
through the agency planning, account
and buying teams. The challenge is
keeping the emerging markets front and
center in the client’s and agency’s mind
and to continue to emphasize the amaz-
ing transformation and growth these
emerging markets are experiencing.”
Woodie adds that “for the longest
time, the emphasis has been on the top
15 Hispanic markets. Now, with
clients wanting and needing to grow
their business and their market share,
they are realizing the huge potential
emerging markets offer. “ Woodie con-
cludes with an example: “If an adver-
tiser is doing business in Salt Lake City
and they haven’t allocated a portion of
their budget to reach out to the Salt
Lake City Hispanic community, then
their competition will. Their competi-
tion will cultivate the Hispanic con-
sumer for long into the future. And as
we all know, first one in wins.”.

25. STATISTICS IN CONTEXT
Hispanic Parents Beware! Minority Youth Spend
90 Minutes more with New Media than White Youth
Minority youth aged 8 to 18 consume an average of 13
hours of media content a day- about 4-1/2 hours more than
their white counterparts, according to a Northwestern
University report, the first national study to focus exclusively
on children’s media use by race and ethnicity. Interestingly,
minority youth are especially avid adopters of new media,
spending about an hour and a half more each day than
White youth using their cell phones, iPods and other mobile
devices to watch TV and videos, play games, and listen to
music (a total of 3 hours and 7 minutes, or 3:07 in mobile
media use among Asians, 2:53 among Hispanics, 2:52
among blacks, and 1:20 among whites).
“In the past decade, the gap between minority and white
youth’s daily media use has doubled for blacks and quadru-
