• Considering bilingual, bi-cultural content is essential for reaching both Spanish- preferred and English- preferred Hispanics.

• Multiple platforms exist for reaching the consumer via digital word-of-mouth

• Conversation trends indicate that as a whole, African Americans are interested in knowing key elements of brands
