Do you want to increase your sales? Why not tap the fastest-growing
consumer market in the country?
According to the Selig Center for Economic Growth, the combined
purchasing power of the multicultural market grew to over $2
trillion in 2007 - exceeding the annual GNP of all but the nine
largest economies of the world. Yes, the marketplace has gone
global, but many business owners, CEOs, and salespeople haven't yet
made the transition. As a result, they're handing their share of
this potentially lucrative market to anyone who's smart and
ambitious enough to accommodate customers from other cultures.
Don't let your competitors chip away at your multicultural
market share without a fight. By being the first in your industry
to pursue the multicultural market, you have an excellent
