Why think about Ethnic diversity Brown Pound The estimate value of the buying power of BME is 300 Billion One in Five 19.5 % of the population = 11 million people are non white British 77% of British Asians feel that mainstream advertising has no relevance to them. BME Population in England & Wales is larger than the total population of Scotland and Northern Ireland combined What are you doing to reach them 13% Were Born Outside UK and count English as a 2 nd Language Household Size Average UK Household size = 2.3 Average BME Household size 3.3
Planning to reach Ethnic Audience The UK ethnic audiences do not engage with mainstream media Migrants usually turn to their own media for information and entertainment when they are in foreign countries. Cultural familiarity whereby migrants could see their culture reflected in the media either on screen, press, radio etc. Access to news and entertainment in mother tongue languages for non-host language speakers. Coverage in depth of news from home. An ethnic perspective on the news and events within the host country. Discussion and coverage of issues that affect and are more relevant to particular ethnic minority/migrant communities.
Online vs. Traditional Media Online panel surveys carried out by Omnicom Media Group (OMG) Ethnic show that only 18% of ethnic minorities in Britain watch solely mainstream television. That is almost matched by the 16% that will only ever put on ethnic programming. Many ethnic media owners are not yet covered by standard industry research (such as BARB, RAJAR, ABC). Digital aside, a general lack of transparency and accountability with ethnic media delivery remains Source: IPA 2014 Over 50 ethnic TV stations are not covered by BARB Over 65 ethnic radio stations are not covered by RAJAR Over 80 magazines and newspapers are not covered by ABC

Engaging with the UK s diverse communities Culturally specific media is growing, especially in relation to newer migrant groups to the UK.

That isn t true of BME groups, either in the media they consume or their other behaviour. Source OMG 2011/IPA 2014

In Summary 1. These communities are similar but not the same - there are lots of ethnic minorities, with many differences between them. 2. Culture, tradition, religion differentiate audiences for example it manifests itself in any number of different consumer patterns, from the South Asian tradition of large and lavish weddings to the finding that black women spend up to six times more on hair care products. 3. Dual personalities - If you're an Asian, you can be just like anyone else at the office; go to the pub; have an Italian, he says, but when you go round your parent s house, you eat samosas and Indian sweets, you watch Hindi films and talk in your mother tongue. 1. Add this thought to your media planning, if Ethnic Minorities account for 20% of the population should you not put them on the brief and perhaps allocate at least 10% of your media budget towards them 2. Education, education, education!
