In this episode, Alay and Hugo discuss:
- Why all attorneys should be marketing to the Spanish-speaking population.
- What sets Abogados NOW apart from other Spanish Legal Marketing agencies.
- How Hugo became an expert in multicultural marketing.
Key Takeaways:
- 1 in 5 people in the US speak Spanish (and the number of English-only speakers is decreasing).
- Marketing to a Spanish-only market or English-only marketing is different from marketing to a bicultural market.
- Give consumers what they want. The Hispanic market wants mobile accessibility, and ads done there will do well for that population.
- Most Spanish-only speakers will bring an English speaker to their consultations, even without being asked.
Tweetable Moments:
- “It’s safe to say that if you’re only focusing on English marketing, you’re probably investing in a shrinking market. Whereas the most underrepresented market in the country in the legal category is the largest population in the country.” — Hugo E. Gomez
- “Marketing to a bicultural market or to Spanish speakers doesn’t just involve translating your English copy into Spanish.” — Alay Yajnik
- “When I realized that Spanish consumers largely look for professional services on their mobile phones, it was sort of a eureka moment that I really had to build an organization that helped attorneys talk to Spanish-speaking consumers on their phones through digital marketing.” — Hugo E. Gomez
- “Your approach should incorporate culture as much as it does language.” — Alay Yajnik
