“#SeeALL is powered by the new Cultural Insights Impact Measure™ (CIIM™) metric which proves that when brands include cultural intelligence in creating and content, purchase intent skyrockets 276%; brand relevance jumps 259% and WOM increases by a factor of 228%. Figures like this point to an enormous opportunity for brands,” said Bob Liodice, ANA CEO and AIMM board member.

Target’s Chief Marketing and Digital Officer Rick Gomez said, “#SeeALL is a call to action to reflect the importance of the multicultural consumer in our work. Prioritizing the multicultural consumer is no longer a ‘nice to do.’ It is an imperative if you want to grow.”

“Inclusion is about making every person – every customer, every supporter and every employee – feel respected and valued. That should be our goal. We must intentionally include all. When we demonstrate culturally authentic content in all our marketing efforts we reflect the world we serve and live in, and that drives meaningful engagement, growth and lasting impact with every person,” said Emily Callahan, Chief Marketing and Experience Officer of ALSAC, the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Gilbert Davila, co-founder of AIMM said, “#SeeALL is not a campaign. It is a movement. Using the voice and reach of brand advertising is a powerful tool to accurately reflect consumers daily lives. And when brands allow cultural insights to drive creative and strategy the outcome is inclusive messaging and it’s a win for the bottom line and for society.”
