Inclusion and Marketing

Inclusive marketing is rapidly growing in prominence, as more consumers expect that brands "see" them, be more inclusive in their marketing campaigns, and accommodate a broader base of customers that don't cleanly fit into what is considered "mainstream." The show is hosted by Sonia Thompson, an inclusive brand coach, strategist, consultant, speaker, and Forbes and Inc. columnist who's helped brands and leaders alike attract and retain diverse customers. This podcast explores everything you need to know about building an inclusive brand, including customer experience, inclusive leadership, cultural intelligence, building diverse teams, inclusive language and imagery, and more.

    135. How to create an LGBTQ+ inclusive brand all year long

    By this time of year, normally we don't see too many LGBTQ+ celebrations from brands. Pride month has passed, and many brands are back to business as usual, which in a lot of cases means they aren't doing much of anything to make LGBTQ+ consumers feel seen, supported, or like they belong. Brands that do a good job of serving the LGBTQ+ community do it all year long. In this episode, I walk you through ways you can build an LGBTQ+ inclusive brand that makes people from the community feel like they belong, no matter when they encounter your brand.

    133. Jaw dropping stats about Latino youth prove why marketers shouldn't ignore this growing consumer group

    Every time I see data about the changing demographics in the U.S., it seems like my jaw drops open. Population Growth: 70% of the U.S. population growth between 2022 and 2023 is attributed to Latinos, a trend that shows no signs of slowing. Economic Force: Latino youth are projected to contribute 78% of all net new U.S. workers by 2030, and Hispanic consumer spending is outpacing non-Hispanic spending in key areas like personal care, home electronics, and new cars. 25% of Gen Z and Gen Alpha are Latino 94% of Latinos under age 18 are born and raised in the U.S. Did you know all that, cause I sure didn’t. And when I think about this from a marketing standpoint, it’s clear that brands need to factor these changing demographics into their strategies. The data I mentioned came from the U.S. Latino Youth 2030 Report, conducted by Kantar in Collaboration with the Latino Donor Collaborative. I wanted to dive more into this data and the implications, so I sat down with Ana Valdez, President and CEO of the Latino Donor Collaborative.

    132. How to build a high-performing diverse team in today's political climate

    In the summer of 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court said that it was no longer lawful to use affirmative action as a way to diversify the number of students colleges and universities accepted each year. As a result, a decades-old policy meant to help universities do a better job of building a diverse and representative student body is no longer valid. As a result, many companies have been reevaluating their own recruitment and hiring policies to address how they could go about building a diverse team – in a way that is, of course, legal. From a marketing perspective, data shows that many marketing teams are quite homogenous. And that homogeneity – that isn’t representative of the actual consumers brands serve, often results in brands not doing the best job of being inclusive in their marketing. So, what’s a brand to do? Well, for this episode, I sat down with an expert, Leanne Elliott, a business psychologist who’s had years of experience with his. Leanne brings some guidance for you on how to build a diverse team in this environment. And I have a feeling if you follow Leanne’s advice, which is rooted in lots of hard-core data – you’ll do a better job of building a diverse and representative team that outperforms those that aren’t representative.

    130. How to plan more inclusive business events with Eman Ismail

    When it comes to business events, particularly those where important and transformational relationships are formed, it's very common for them to not be inclusive -- particularly for people who, for whatever reason, don't engage in specific activities that are considered "norms" in these types of settings. A big part of inclusive marketing is challenging what is often considered to be "normal" in your quest to make more of the people you want to serve feel like they belong with you. In this episode, I sat down with Eman Ismail, an email marketing strategist and copywriter, and founder of Eman Copy Co, an email marketing microagency. We had a really insightful chat about her experiences feeling excluded by the norms at many events, and how it made her feel, as well as how it impacted her success. We also walk through practical examples for brands for how to create more inclusive events that enable more people to achieve success and feel like they belong with you.
