Inclusive Marketing Guide



Media frames reality. The images, words, and stories that we hear in marketing and advertising have a subtle but significant impact on how we see the world. Yet research indicates that 72% of people feel most advertising doesn’t reflect the world around them, 63% claim they don’t see themselves represented in most advertising, and 60% say they don’t see their community of friends, family, and acquaintances represented accurately. 

As businesses strive to connect with new audiences, culturally sensitive marketing practices remain a rich, untapped area of opportunity. So where can marketing teams start? We have some tools for you.
