According to the article from the link sent by Billh, "the term market penetration is sometimes used interchangeably with market share, but it may also describe a different concept that related to market share.

In this case, the original mentions "afiliados," which means actual members and not just people that are aware of the brand, so I stand by my suggestion of "market share."
