From 1990 to 2000, Hispanic-Americans rocketed past every other ethnic group to become the largest minority in the US, according to the Census 2000 data. During that period, the Hispanic population has grown 58 percent to 35.3 million. Today, with a purchasing power of $630 billion, the Hispanic community represents a growing market opportunity in a relatively flat economy.

This recent demographic event should serve as a wake-up call to the telecommunications industry. Carriers need to recognize the power of the Hispanic consumer, re-evaluate their multicultural marketing opportunities, and develop more targeted strategies to increase their share of this burgeoning market. This report examines the telecom usage and purchasing behavior of America's fastest-growing population segment. In addition, it looks at how the telecommunications industry is currently serving the Hispanic consumer and assesses how important Hispanic marketing is to a carrier's bottom line.

Report Excerpt

Hispanics the Largest US Minority Group

Hispanics surpassed the African-American population as the largest minority group in the US with 35.3 million people in the year 2000, ten years sooner than previously forecast by the Census Bureau and catching much of corporate America off guard.

The 35.3 million figure excludes Puerto Rico, a US commonwealth that is home to an additional 3.8 million Hispanics. Savvy marketers view Puerto Rico as a key US Hispanic market, rather than as part of their international operations. When the Puerto Rican market is factored in, the total 2000 Hispanic population amounts to 39.1 million.

Purchasing Power and Generational Change

For 2001, the Selig Center for Economic Growth at the University of Georgia forecasted Hispanic purchasing power to be $452 billion. This estimate was based on the Census Bureau’s underestimated forecast of only 33.1 million Hispanics in 2000. Based on the updated estimate of the 2001 Hispanic population at 42.5 million, the Association of Hispanic Advertising Agencies (AHAA) predicts a more realistic estimate of Hispanic purchasing power in 2001 at $550 billion. Buying power will exceed $925 million by the year 2007.

US Hispanics are heavy users of beepers/pagers, local, long distance, and international calls, and spend considerably more than the general market on value-added services such as call waiting and caller ID. Prepaid services have also experienced explosive growth in the US Hispanic market ...
