singer’s song
An unfinished version
got into the hands of
the public
Results
A firestorm of negative
publicity from leading
magazines, nightly
newscasts, daytime shows,
blogs, and social media
sites that lasted for weeks
A barrage of negative
feedback and outrage
from African-American
customers
Public apologies had to
be issued from the singer,
and to the singer and the
community
A damaged image from
negative publicity
Wasted resources and lost
sales

Perception vs. RealityPerception
Asian Americans
are smarter than
everyone else; all
are high
achieving; Asians
are the “model
minority”
Reality
Many Asians immigrated here
because they were able to
receive visas due to technical
skills; immigrant children of
other cultures also have high
GPA’s; while high achieving
Asians have more college
degrees than the average
American, more than 1/3 of
Cambodians and Laotians do
not have a high school
diploma and live in poverty
Copyright MFHA 2014
Perception vs. RealityPerception
Blacks/African-
Americans are
poor; they are
uneducated; they
speak English so
they don’t need a
multicultural
marketing focus
Reality
The Black race is diverse and
1/3 of all Blacks make more
than $50,000 a year; 54% of
them have some education
beyond high school; and
although they speak English,
they have significant cultural
differences that warrant
targeted marketing
Copyright MFHA 2014
Perception vs. Reality

Perception
Hispanics/Latinos
are illegal and
undocumented;
they can’t speak
English; they don’t
want to associate
with American
society
Reality
The majority of Hispanics are in
the U.S. legally and 60% were
born here; 76% of them speak
English, and although they
want to preserve their cultural
traditions like other ethnic and
racial groups, they also want
to be a part of American
society
Conclusion
• There are significant cultural differences
that can be leveraged to grow your business
for the long-term
• Increase your Cultural Intelligence to
increase your comfort and knowledge
• Strive to replicate the top performers
• Invest in multicultural efforts for the long-
term
• Don’t just focus on one group
• If you approach the multicultural market in the
right way, there is no way you can go wrong!
