The Enduring Importance of Inclusive Marketing in a DEI Adverse World with Devoreaux Walton
Manage episode 431664453 series 1346091
Despite gaining significant momentum in 2020 following a surge in social justice awareness, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) has faced recent backlash. Yet, inclusive marketing remains essential for businesses seeking long-term success.
Inclusive marketing is not just about representation. It is a strategic approach designed to build deep connections with diverse audiences, celebrating diversity at every customer touchpoint. This can only be achieved by understanding these communities, inviting them to share their lived experiences and cultures, and using those insights to inform the creative process. Market research, such as focus groups, online surveys, and direct engagement with current customers, is critical to transforming data points into actionable insights that drive effective and inclusive marketing strategies that enhance ad relevance and cultivate brand loyalty.
Inclusive marketing cannot exist in a silo, however. And it’s about more than just doing the right thing or making people feel good. It’s also a powerful driver of business growth. Companies that execute inclusive marketing well enjoy a competitive advantage because they have embedded it across the entire organization, from talent acquisition to product development and launch.
Data and business growth strategies support the effectiveness of inclusive marketing. Courageous companies that prioritize DEI, even amid challenges, often discover new market opportunities, drive innovation and establish themselves as responsible corporate citizens.
In this episode of The New Mainstream podcast, Devoreaux Walton, MBA, a Brand & Marketing Senior Consultant at relevant and host of The Inclusive Consumer podcast, discusses the relevance of inclusive marketing in today’s complex business landscape.
