Diversity & Cultural Testing

Ensure your advertising is inclusive, and resonates with all audiences including diverse and multicultural audiences

What is Diversity Testing?

Diversity testing is a means for those in the advertising and marketing world to have a quick sense check and understand if a proposed campaign is likely to work with diverse marketing audiences or not (and why).

Australia is among the most multicultural and diverse societies in the world. Diversity testing helps ensure your campaign is inclusive and respectful to all audiences.

It is an essential and simple step to avoid stereotypes or alienating and offending various audience groups with inadvertent missteps in advertising and marketing.

In today’s digital world, unintentional racial and diversity mistakes from brands and organisations can quickly go viral and cause brand damage and lost revenue. The brand damage at times can lead to millions of dollars and is often irreparable.

Self-identity is complicated and highly nuanced – many diverse audiences retain deep links with their culture and identity making diverse Australia feel more like a ‘salad bowl’ than the traditional ‘melting pot’.
