Last week, our CEO Tara DeVeaux shared invaluable insights on a dynamic panel during the Marketing Leadership Summit at Brand Innovators Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 2024. Missed it? No worries! Here are 3 Key Takeaways for brands: • General Market doesn't exist. Multicultural is the new General Market. • Mainstream culture is highly influenced by Black culture. By starting with Black, we can be predictive as to where the rest of the culture will be going. • Brands that want to tap into the economic power of our culture should also be partnering with our businesses. Tara's discussion was a masterclass in understanding and engaging with Black consumers. At Burrell, we know it always #startswithBlack! #CannesLions2024 #BCGNews #CulturalROI 📸 @urban1podcasts
