Culture defines and shapes consumers, implicitly and explicitly affecting the way we interact with organizations, products and brands. CultureBeat, C+R Research’s multicultural research division, helps brands understand how different cultures, ethnicities and lifestyles – and the dynamics that intertwine them – influence their consumers. Our team focuses on getting to the core of what drives consumers’ interactions with your brands to help you form long-lasting connections with them.
Our CultureBeat team is comprised of a group of researchers from diverse cultural and professional backgrounds who bring years of experience and cultural relevance. And our Hispanic research consultancy, LatinoEyes®, brings additional experience and deep understanding of both U.S. and Latino cultures. Our insights are driven by our passion to uncover how culture influences consumers/shoppers and the decisions they make. We leverage our company’s agility to develop the best research approaches, utilizing both traditional and emerging methods.
During Hispanic Heritage Month, we talked about the state of the Hispanic consumer and have a conversation with them to explore their sentiments about the current situation in our nation, their perceptions of the importance of Hispanics as consumers, and their views on the brands they connect with. Click here to watch our short video recap, read our key takeaways, or listen to the full conversation in our podcast.
To coincide with Hispanic Heritage Month, we paused to celebrate the vibrancy of Hispanic teens with a new eBook. Our YouthBeat® and CultureBeat teams collaborated closely to understand multicultural youth and families’ circumstances and needs. Learn some fun facts about Hispanic teens’ preferences that set them apart from their Non-Hispanic peers in our blog and eBook.
