race, ethnicity, size of household, and more)• Lifestyle and psychographic information (typical
activities, where shop, product usage, use of media and more)
![Page 19: Ready To Learn: A Social Marketing Approach for a National Education Campaign Julia Galdo, Managing Director, Communication Lori Agin, Principal Communications.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d095503460f949dc09a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Target Audience: Eight PRIZM-NE Segments
• Eight PRIZM-NE segments where identified as having a high concentration of RTL families
– RTL New Beginnings– Multi-Culti Mosaic– Family Thrifts– Bedrock America– Big City Blues– Low Rise Living– Shotguns and Pick
Ups– Kid Country
![Page 20: Ready To Learn: A Social Marketing Approach for a National Education Campaign Julia Galdo, Managing Director, Communication Lori Agin, Principal Communications.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d095503460f949dc09a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Big City Blues With a population that's 50 percent Latino, Big City Blues has the highest concentration of Hispanic Americans in the nation. But it's also the multi-ethnic address for downscale Asian and African-American households occupying older inner-city apartments. Concentrated in a handful of major metropolitan areas, these young singles and single-parent families face enormous challenges: low incomes, uncertain jobs and modest educations. More than 40 percent haven't finished high school.
Low-Rise LivingThe most economically challenged urban segment, Low-Rise Living is known as a transient world for young, ethnically diverse singles and single parents. Home values are low--About half the national average--and even then less than a quarter of residents can afford to own real estate. Typically, the commercial base of Mom-and-Pop stores is struggling and in need of a renaissance.

Peggy’s Story I have three kids. I love them to death. I wish I had more time to spend with them. When I get home, I just have time to make sure they do their homework and have some dinner. Then it is bath-time. They watch some TV and it is bed-time. We sometimes watch TV together but mostly the kids watch their own TV programs. I try to make sure that the stuff they watch on TV is not violent. My kids love Dora and Diego. The kids also play video games, plug and plays and on-line games.
![Page 29: Ready To Learn: A Social Marketing Approach for a National Education Campaign Julia Galdo, Managing Director, Communication Lori Agin, Principal Communications.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d095503460f949dc09a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Peggy’s StoryI know that the education is important and I try to do as much as I can to make sure they do their homework, but our schools are no good. My kids are at a Head Start program during the day and Boys and Girls club in the afternoon. There are a few programs in this area that help people like me.
![Page 30: Ready To Learn: A Social Marketing Approach for a National Education Campaign Julia Galdo, Managing Director, Communication Lori Agin, Principal Communications.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d095503460f949dc09a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Understand the Target Audience
Key Findings:
• Most low income parents are focused on such basic family needs as food and shelter, reliable transportation, health care, child care and safety.
• Parents do not see teaching as their responsibility.
• Parents want better opportunities for their children to succeed in life (beyond school); free time to relax; fun and entertainment; and to be good parents.
• They have little time for being involved in their children’s activities or for spending quality time with them. However, they are willing to try activities with their kids if they could easily fit it into their schedules.
![Page 31: Ready To Learn: A Social Marketing Approach for a National Education Campaign Julia Galdo, Managing Director, Communication Lori Agin, Principal Communications.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d095503460f949dc09a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Understand the Target Audience
Key Findings:
• Parents did not know that simple behaviors (rhyming and letter recognition games) can help their children get ready to read.
Many parents do not read to their kids every day, because they do not have time, do not read well or cannot read English.
Parental interaction primarily: Completing homework Watching adults/teen TV Eating at fast food restaurants Shopping (often at) big box and “dollar type” stores
