Multicultural Health Marketing 101


The MCH 101 program provides a comprehensive exploration of key multicultural communities, their unique healthcare needs, and effective marketing strategies to create impactful and inclusive campaigns. The program aims to equip healthcare organizations with the knowledge and strategies needed to address the challenges and opportunities in this rapidly evolving landscape.

After completing the Multicultural Health Marketing (MCH) 101 program, students will walk away with a basic understanding on best practices for reaching key multicultural populations. MCH 101 includes several pre-recorded webinars + live presenters that comprise the program. Students will receive a certificate of completion and become a certified Multicultural Marketer.

The MCH 101 live moderated video sessions will be composed of the exact same courses from the virtual version but be run by an expert moderator that will be able to answer any question you have in real time so learnings will be more in depth. Live attendees will also receive all the same videos from MCH 101 for reference to review at their convenience. Attendees will also be able to guarantee certification in a single day and, because their participation is verified, will not be required to test and will receive their certification at the conclusion of the day.

DTC Perspectives will provide every person who completes this course with:

  • A Certificate (digital) to verify program completion

Multicultural Health Marketing: An Industry Overview

The increasing and burgeoning population growth of racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse U.S. communities presents strategic and tactical challenges to healthcare organizations focused on designing DTC campaigns. This demographic revolution is compounded by the national health agenda to eliminate health disparities, FDA mandates to increase diversity in clinical trials, and the appeal to big pharma to be a stakeholder in striving for health equity for all – no matter what you look like, where you come from, or what language you speak. The data are now more compelling than ever before that there are clear connections between cultural awareness, disease prevalence, disease incidence, effective treatment, the practice of evidence-based humane medicine, adherence, and improved outcomes for diverse groups. Competitive advantage will accrue to organizations comfortable with multiculturalism and take strategic, measurable, and sustainable action. This session will provide an historical overview of the state of the art of multicultural healthcare marketing, best practices in developing outreach, engagement and ROI-driven DTC campaigns, and an analysis of case histories from molecule to market.

Healthcare in the Black Community: The Untold Human Truths

They say that 80% of any health outcome is determined by what is called Social Determinants of Health or SDOH. This includes factors such as access to nutritious food, transportation, income levels, air pollution, social support, affluency, and other social economic variables; not overall intelligence. These factors are the bedrock of systemic inequalities in the US. At massive scale, the Black community continues to be left behind, sitting on the other side of major gap in Mental and Physical Wellbeing.

COVID simply accelerated these disparities and now the power has shifted very much to peer-to-peer communication. Marketing, in particular to reach the Black community, needs a completely new “Design” on how to connect at a human level. In this 101 session, Albert Thompson will take you through the truths in the Black community’s distrust within the Healthcare spectrum and where trust and influence lies.
