By 2005, U.S. ethnic consumers will spend over $65 billion dollars on local, long distance, Internet access, and wireless services, approximately half of the current expenditures for all U.S. telecom consumers. Despite this situation, giants like AT&T, MCI, and Sprint are not taking advantage of the benefits that ethnic markets offer, losing potential customers to small providers like Econodial and Master Call. As a result, a dozen of ethnic telcos currently control up to 70 percent of the ethnic long distance market and are aggressively expanding their service offerings to obtain a strong position in other industry sectors as well.
