Considerations

• Continue to engage the US Hispanic consumer with experiences that connect with personal lifestyle, at a one-to-one level

• Awareness levels and brand recall are high among this consumer, and help connect with program and generate personal experiences

• Although gaming was leveraged specifically to feature LG TV product attributes (LG Dual Play), it proved to be a powerful creative strategy that connects with this consumer

• Motorsports is a great platform to connect with US Hispanics, however, it appears to be limited in it’s reach (regional vs. national). Consider alternatives platforms that can help engage with consumer at a national level and continue to deliver regional value
