Hispanic Early Adopters to Advanced TV Advertising

BrightLine iTV reports that Hispanic viewers of interactive television are early adopters and more likely to engage with advertisers than the general population.

Analyzing proprietary 2009 campaign data, BrightLine analyzed the media consumption habits of the nation’s largest and fastest-growing ethnic minority and found Latinos represent a largely under-tapped “super consumer” force within the advanced television advertising universe.

“Early results are encouraging for advertisers seeking game-changing ways to connect with the Hispanic audience,” said Jacqueline Corbelli, CEO, BrightLine iTV. “Heavy usage combined with the reach of advanced television has created optimal conditions for leveraging interactive TV marketing and connecting brands with this increasingly valuable Hispanic population.”
