Why You Need A Black Advertising or Public Relations Expert:

Black advertising and public relations experts can teach you and your audience about how to market and/or brand your products and services. Most of them specialize in targeted and multicultural marketing - that is, marketing to various consumers based on their ethnicity. Such an expert can be an individual that owns their own marketing firm, or someone employed as a marketing executive at a Fortune 500 company. Some of these experts are even research consultants who can elaborate on marketing research.

Such experts can also be referred to as "urban marketing" experts or even "hip-hop" marketing experts, which virtually mean the same thing. However, in some cases, these terms can literrally refer to targeting people who dwell in urban settings and who are fans of hip-hop music.
