In a world where diversity and inclusion is (finally) gaining momentum, it’s scary to think that you may make a misstep and get canceled by the culture that drives your business strategy. Your typical approach to marketing will no longer do. Now, your blindspots can crush your business. How can you make sure to avoid common mistakes when marketing to a multicultural world? We’re here to set you straight.

Lori J. Hall is co-founder and head of creative for the recently launched multicultural agency Pop’N Creative. Based in Atlanta, Ga., Pop’N Creative was established because she and co-founder Jessica D. Lane Alexander saw too many brands offend Black consumers in their marketing creative. They wanted to help brands do better with highly coveted multicultural audiences. Hall and Lane Alexander built Pop’N Creative to serve brands better and help them avoid the pitfalls of marketing in a multicultural world.

Prior to founding Pop’N Creative, Hall was Senior Vice President of Marketing for TV One, an African American targeted cable network. Under her leadership, she spearheaded the network’s new brand look and promise, which included a comprehensive creative overhaul of TV One’s on-air and off-air brand elements, including its new tagline, “REPRESENT.” She also led the new brand look and marketing for TV One’s recently launched Millennial and Gen-X targeted network CLEO TV. During her tenure at TV One, Hall managed all phases of marketing, including advertising and branding outreach efforts in order to maximize TV One’s business and programming objectives.

Hall was named a 2018 NYC Television Week “40 Under 40” honoree, a 2016 Multichannel News “40 Under 40” honoree, a recipient of the 2018 WICT “Know Yourself” award and has been a featured panelist for numerous industry events and conferences. She holds memberships with NAMIC and PromaxBDA, and is a Northwestern University graduate with a bachelor’s degree in communications.
