What is HispanicMPR.com/B2B?

It is a new section within HispanicMPR.com for business
subscribers to communicate with each other directly. On the B2B pages you the
subscriber can share your business and Hispanic market news, information,
opinion and requests directly with each other and our audience. In fact, you
are invited to write and post directly onto the website.

Who is the audience of the B2B section?

We expect it is similar to that of HispanicMPR.com,
middle to senior executives with interest in general business and Hispanic
market topics.

How much does I cost to visit the site, register, and
post?

There is no cost. Nothing, nada.

Should I create a profile in my name or my company name?

It's up to you. Most people do business with other people. In

with other people if you identify your name and what you do. Plus, your profile
also allows you to list your company name and information.

What are the rules for the website?

This is your community. If you like the forum treated it with the respect you would like to see when you visit it. If you see someone abusing their account let us know or volunteer to help monitor the pages to keep inappropriate or rude behavior out. For more information see the Community Guidelines at the top of the page.

What do I do if I see inappropriate content?

Tell us please. Send us an email to let us know what the content is, where it is and who posted it.

What do you do with my information?

We collect aggregate data to better serve our subscribers. We do not give out or sell your information to third parties. For more information see our Privacy Policy at the top of the page.

How do I unsubscribe?

If you sign up to receive HispanicMPR.com/B2B email updates and decide you no longer wish to receive them you have to enter the website with your username and password, go to your profile and cancel your email subscription.

Can I include a video with my post?

At this time we are unable to accept video (or audio) files.

What is the business model for B2B? How can you make money if you don't charge for subscriptions or posts?

The idea is to provide a place where we can all communicate about
business issues. Initially we will cover the set up costs. We hope a few ads
(we appreciate any ads you would like to place) will help keep it running in
the long term.

Who is behind B2B?

Elena del Valle, editor and host of HispanicMPR.com, came up with
the idea. A small South Florida based company provides the infrastructure and
support for the site.

What can I do to help? Do you need volunteers?

Absolutely! We can use all the help we can get.

You can help us make the website a success in three main ways:

Tell your colleagues, clients, and professional friends about it
so they join in the conversation and make it interesting.

The website is designed to run mostly on its own. We trust users will value the forum and keep it nice since it's for their own benefit. We know once the word spreads there are bound to be abusers and can use all the help we can get to identify abuse.

If you have practical, easy-to-implement ideas for ways to improve B2B and subscribers' experience share them with us. We will review them with interest and care.

Thank you!
