David Burgos said,

Elena,

My name is David Burgos. I currently head Millward Brown’s Multicultural Practice.

I wanted to share with you some information that I believe will be of high interest to the members of Hispanic Marketing and Public Relations. It is a Lifestyles Segmentation of the US Hispanic market - a project that goes beyond traditional language/acculturation variables to segment Hispanics.

I have presented the results of this quantitative project (representative of ALL US Hispanics) to many of our clients. The feedback has been very positive. I am now interested in sharing this information with an extended audience and thought that your organization would be a great option.

I’d like to send you more information about this project, but can’t do it via this message. If you are interested, please contact me at david.burgos@us.millwardbrown.com

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

David

Luisa M. Fournier-Padró said,

¡Enhorabuena Elena! Tu nuevo juguetito tiene chispa. Audio da vida, despierta otro sentido, por lo tanto señal de alerta…estoy vivo (esto en sonido de robot Starwar) presta atención a los mensajes de toda la página.

Creo que has tenido gran acierto en añadir este tipo de anuncio de video. Da deseos de…”venga más/dame más”…de seguir adentrándose en el anuncio. Me pasa que al seguir “cliickeando” en algunas páginas me encuentro cada tesoro que tardo en volver a la página original. Me sucede con la tuya cuando me voy “scavenging” de información en tantos temas que tienes. Como no oigo bien, se me da mejor lo escrito; no obstante tu público está más alerta y en la onda que lo entienden todo fácil.

La verdad Elenita que lo audiovisual llama y llena…el mundo ya se ha saturado de ruidos a imágenes refulgentes y cambiantes en fracción de segundos por lo que el lector ya se aburre con sólo lo escrito, a menos que ande en plan investigativo o sea un lector educado y dedicado. Tienes visión. Te deseo mucho éxito.

Greeting Elena!
I am marielle gonzales , a public realtions officer from the Special Edition Press, Inc. - a multipmedia corporation that operates staged events for the Filipino tradeshows and cultural events here in the East COast, we are settled in New York for more than 10 years.
This year, to improve our event to the next level, we decided to embrace the latino comunity also to honor the Philippines’ Spanish heritage, by providing a Hispanic Pavilion during the Music fest and set up a two-day event of brother hood and cultural exchange.
Now, in behalf of our company, we would like to have as more as Latino/Hispanic support from all the east coast so I guess concerning the popularity that this website of yours could vaunt, i am no longer not convinced that we could possibly receive some help from you, our gratitude will be shown in the better way than your expectations.
Hope to hear from you a prompt reply, may you have a pleasant day always. :-)

Sincere regards!

Thank you for your lead
Elena del Valle said,

Hello Chale and thanks for your comment.

There are companies that sell that kind of information. Off the top of my head I don’t know and would likely need more information and time to help you. You can do the research online yourself by looking for list farming companies. If you need my help I will have to charge you for my time. Let me know if that’s what you would like.

Sharon Azar said,

Dear Elena,
I heard Guy Gabaldon’s story on WNYC this morning and was very inspired by Mr. Gabaldon’s heroism. I brought the story to the attention of our managing editor thinking we could do something in our magazine, Guideposts.

We are an inspirational magazine reaching 8 million readers across the country.

Would you know how I can reach the producer, Steve Rubin? I’d like him to send us some press material? Maybe we could do a story from the point of view of one of the actors? Or perhaps Steve himself?

Best regards,

Laurie Merrill said,

Hola Elena,

Each year at our school we have a schoolwide assembly to honor our local veterans. I heard on NPR the story about Guy Gabaldon. Any chance the documentary director could come to our school and be a guest speaker on May 23rd? If he can not speak do you have any other person in mind? How do I get a copy of the documentary East LA Marine? Our school is 90% latino and could use a shot of inspiration during these difficult ecomomic times. Those beautiful strawberries, oranges, and lemons everyone enjoys are picked by the parents of my students. I am glad I found you on the web and would like to try to to work with you on another assembly I call Enjoy Cultural Diversity for next year where speakers from different countries tell their stories of immigration and then we enjoy music and or dance from their homeland.

Hasta la vista,
Laurie Merrill

Jean Derely said,

Hi, I am Jean , the founder of the Social Network Hispanito.com

Thank you very much Elena for publishing my article in HisapnicMPR .

I send this note to clarify the comment above.

The Hispanito.com domain was registered in 2002. From 2003 to 2006 the domain hosted a great directory of links for the hispanic world.

In 2006 I bought the domain and in 2007 I launched the social platform.

Thanks to the great position of the previous link-directory in the Google search engine, we reached 8,000 page views on our 1st day of operation in February 27th 2007.

On April 25 2008 Hispanito had 325,000 page views.

Thanks to all of you for your interest and your feedbacks on the article.

alberto cordova said,

Dear Elena,
Thank you for your efforts to raise the level of awareness of Latinos who go above and beyond the limits of the typical American experience in war as well as in peace.
I read about Guy Gabaldon last year. I wished I could have met this unusual every day man.
I retired from the Army as a chaplain in 2006 after serving in the Navy, Naval Reserve and Army Reserve. During my years of service I became aware of our little known contributions to the humanity of the world through our military and peace service. I met a man from New Mexico who told me of his experiences in war in the Pacific when he rescued a Japanese General and his staff who surrendered and taking them prisoners rather than the usual shootings. He was never recognized for that but then that was typical of the time due to the intrenched racism of our American society at the time. I will share his name you when you answer my message. I would also be interested in helping you document the rich lives of our Latinos in peace and in war for posterity.
Thank you for your efforts.

Hello Maria and thanks for your comment,

There are many possible sources of funding for a program for Latino youth. I suggest you consider organizations targeting Latino youth like beverage, mobile, clothing and computer companies as they are the most likely to be interested in that demographic and may have funding dollars available. If your program is local you may want to start with local companies. If it’s national you can expand your search. I hope that helps.

Hello Ms. Del Valle,

My name is Sara Rojas and I am a recent graduate from American University in Washington, DC. I have a degree in Public Relations and Spanish with a minor in Marketing. I just wanted to say thank you so much for this website, it has been a God send for me. I am an eagerly searching for a job. I have a dream of moving to NY city and pursuing a career in marketing or public relations with an emphasis on the U.S Hispanic community. I am proud of being the first college graduate in my family, but I have been out of school for almost two months now and I am struggling to find a job. I was wondering if you had any advice or if you know of any companies looking for a very hard working, driven, organized and cheerful college graduate, such as myself? I greatly appreciate all of your help and I thank you for being a role model for young hispanic women.

Sincerely,

Sara Rojas

I am Vice President of Internet Business at Legacy Publishing Company and am researching the prospects for translating and marketing our flagship product to the spanish language market in the United States. The product, The Total Transformation Program, is a CD/DVD program for those struggling to raise kids with behavior issues. It sells for approximately $300.

The Total Transformation Program is a proven success. We have sold 125,000 copies by advertising nationally on TV and radio. We are looking for a company with an equally established track record.

Could you recommend a company that can help us reach this market? spanishlegacy @ gmail.com
Elena del Valle said,

Hello Sara Rojas and thanks for your kind words.

In terms of your search for a job, I suggest you identify the companies you would like to work with and approach them. It’s important to describe what you have to offer them rather than what you want only. You might also want to take a look at our Job Ads page where job opportunities are announced at http://www.hispanicmpr.com/category/job-ads/

I hope this helps. Best of luck in your search! Feel free to stay in touch and leave comments in the future.
Laura Wellington said,

Dear Elena:

I’d ask that you consider learning more about what we are doing at The Giddy Gander Company to support bilingual (Spanish-English) fluency in the United States beginning with children and children’s television, namely a series and brand called The Wumblers. Having recently emerged from both Toyfair and Licensing Show, highly successful with the bilingual branded product we showed to the existing licensing and retail marketplaces, we arrived back to our office to unexpected discussions to air The Wumblers on one of the top two Spanish Language broadcasters in the US beginning July 1, 2008, which will correlate nicely with our emergence into Walmart through a joint promotion, between The Wumblers, The National Watermelon Association, and Walmart, which will kick off this July in one of their Texas stores. The most prominent reason for all of the excitement surrounding The Wumblers is explained below, quoted recently from an article written about The Giddy Gander Company:

“…and The Wumblers rapid success includes the bilingual (Spanish-English) marketplace in a prominent way through Spanish media and product companies as well as leading news organizations supporting the series through a variety of business opportunities that will help Spanish speaking children in the United States achieve English fluency in a new and innovative way while remaining consistent with the values that remain key to the strong family ties and cultural origins of this flourishing community that offers so much to our US society.”

Additionally, our business model is just as innovative as the series, itself. We’ve bridged unexpected partners and continue to air upon and expand into mass, inspirational, educational, and (now) Spanish Language broadcast platforms both nationally and internationally. If you’d like to learn more about The Wumblers series and brand, do not hesitate to contact me or my associate Heidi Schwartz at extension 230. .

Thank you for your time.

Hi Elena I work for kuafrica.com in South Africa as an entertainment editor and I read Your article on the New company to target latinos with million dollar TV game shows and I think its fine. Here in Africa there is high percentage of individuals who enjoy and participate in game shows on TV. So I will like this project not only to be confined amongst latinos but also Africans. So I will like to tender a proposal to SCA Latam to bring this project to Africa through kuafrica.com if its possible because here in kuafrica.com, we help to brand Africa and the world. But now I need a contact for SCA Latam.

I was looking at your events that you have posted for the fall. I would just like to point out that the National Hispanic Business Association (NHBA) NHBA.org and Mexican American Engineers and Scientist natl-maes.org are joining forces for the first time to have their national conferences. This event will bring close to 2000 undergraduates in the Business, Engineering, Scientist and technology. what is the criteria you use to post events? Enrique

Hi Enrique and thanks for your comment. Some of the events listed are of Event Partners (look for the words “Information provided by our Event Partner” to identify information submitted by them). In terms of criteria, we give consideration to any event we think may interest our audience. The challenge is gathering the information. If you think they would make good partners feel free to have them contact me.

I can write them, and illustrate them, and even publish them on a site (Georgia Hedrick’s Storefront). But i cannot get our school school to see the value in them.

Any one with any ideas out there as to how to get such books into the schools? Plus, the way I set the books up it is so that one side of a page is in English and the other side is in Spanish, with the illustration repeated. My vision is for parent to read Spanish to the child, and child to read English to the parent.

I think it is a great way to reinforce the cultures.

Am I alone in this? Georgia Hedrick retired teacher

nicole stultz said,

Hi,
I work as an assistant to Fernando Luis Alvarez, an upcoming artist, former successful entrepreneur and senior executive who is putting together a solo show of 20 years of his work. Additionally his vision for the location he has rented for the show is to leave it as a gallery and community place SoHo style for the Greenwich, CT affluent residents who have to go to NYC to feel an artistic and creative ambiance. The project has great merit and as the person who manages PR, I think the artist may be interested in being on your show. Please inform if there is interest on your end to interview the artist.

Pilar Ramirez said,

Hi Elena,
I’m currently working as a Marketing Manager for PSCU Financial Services. We are owned by credit unions and are the biggest Credit Union Service Ortganization in the country. I recently launched an educational and marketing campaign to help our credit unions reach the Hispanic market. I’m in need of advice as far as what seminars, conventions or conferences you recommend professionals to attent to gain a better understanding of the market and new trends. I would really appreciate it if you make some suggestions, especially if you know of any that may be financial services related. Thank you.
Best Regards,
Pilar
Elena del Valle said,

Hello Pilar,

It can be expensive and time consuming to attend conferences so I try to maximize my participation when I attend. In addition to the learning opportunities they can also be great for networking. Before scheduling conferences you may want to start with some reading or listening to some audio interviews. We have a number of audio interviews from leaders in the field available in our resources section free of charge http://www.hispanicmpr.com/resources/podcast-list/.

Visit the Resources Section more in depth analysis in articles and audio presentations - http://www.hispanicmpr.com/resources/

Once you have an initial understanding of the market, market segment(s) and marketing issues you will be in a good position to take the next step. I hope that helps!

Harold Reyes said,

Necesito ayuda para imprimir 5 mil libros y llegarle al máximo de Hispanos posible, pues he descubierto una manera de hacer reversible cualquier cáncer y para eso he escrito un libro y me gustaría regalarselo a cada familia Hispana que pueda estar afectada con esta enfermedad. Las estadísticas indican que hoy en día uno de cada dos personas le va a dar cáncer. El cáncer es un gran negocio para aquellos que se benefician de ello y lo están haciendo a costillas del sufrimiento y ruina económica completa de los familiares afectados.
También la diabetes que es una epidemia en nuestra comunidad he aprendido que es reversible, pero como también es un tremendo negocio no mejorar a la gente, nos están explotando y sacando nuestro dinero mintiendonos descaradamente y haciendonos sufrir sin necesidad.
Mi libro no se concentra en acusasiones a los que les corresponde, sino más bien al protocolo que seguimos con mi familia cuando el cáncer nos visitó. Muchas personas se han mejorado, pero nadie puede salir adelante sin ser aplastado por la industria beneficiada. Yo quize estar en la televisión sin embargo los canales no quieren pasar mi mensaje. Los medios están controlados para mantenernos en la ignorancia.
El libro es nuestra única herramienta para informarnos de nuestras alternativas, de la ayuda que podemos tener acceso esquivando una industria tan controlada que solamente nos quiere explotar financieramente sin importarles el dolor que causan sus acciones. Las cirugías, la quimoterapia, la radiación son solamente un gran negocio. Cualquiera puede mejorarse de cáncer y de eso se trata este libro que me tomó 4 años escribirlo y ando buscando ayuda para imprimir por lo menos 5 mil unidades y para distribuirlos a las familias Hispanas.
Si hay alguien que me pueda ayudar en esto, se estará ayudando a si mismo porque tarde o temprano en cáncer va a golpear sus puertas y cuando eso suceda se van a recordar que existen alternativas mejores que las que nos obligan a tomar.
Georgia (Alma Zacharias) Hedrick said,

Today, at 2:30, I will meet with a Natuatl Indian, his sister, a Union guy, and Gilbert Cortez who will interpret to me my thousands questions. .

In order to preserve the Nahuatl Indian language this man his written, had translated into both English and Spanish and Nahuatl language, a dictionary. It is typed, indexed and translated into English by someone in Boston, is 300 pages (14000 words) long. These two Nahuatl natives to Southern Mexico, Bernice and Arturo Rivera, have composed this in order to save their native language. Today I go and see how I can help them get this into print.

They are poor, clean houses, do handiwork about the yards, and have only one main wish: to preserve their native language so that it will always be understood. (They say it is dying out.)

I need all the suggestions I can get as to where do I go with this? Who do I bring this to? Is this of value to the linguistic community?

I know nothing beyond what I am telling you.

What questions should I ask them? Somebody, somewhere, HELP! gh

ps for anyone who appreciates and understands the LADY OF GUADALUPE and what she means to Mexico, please know that Nahuatl is the language spoken by both Juan Deigo and the Lady who talked to him. So, this language is very special and has to be preserved. gh

Marcus Krzastek said,

Hey Elena,

My name’s Marcus, I work at the brand consulting agency, Vaynermedia. Over the next four months I’m working specifically with Gary Vaynerchuk. Gary has found success in branding himself through the use of social media. Due to this success he’s signed a ten book deal with Harper Collins; you can read more about it in this WSJ article (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123868606261082747.html). The first book is slated to come out this October, it’s called Crush It: Why Now Is the Time To Cash In on Your Passion.

Basically, I’m e-mailing you because Gary’s trying to get together a promotional bonanza around the release. We’re getting requests for interviews and stuff like that but we decided it would be better to be proactive and contact all the business and marketing blogs and see what we can do for them. He’d love to do book giveaway contests, interviews, Q&A sessions, an interpretive dance summarizing a chapter, really anything that you think your readers would like to see.

On your side, anything you do with him is going to get an influx of readers to your blog due to his massive and loyal following. If you’ve got anything specific as to what you want to do or if you just want to start bouncing some ideas around shoot me an e-mail.

Adelin Gasana said,

Dear Elena del Valle,

Hi, my name is Adelin Gasana and I am an independent professional documentary filmmaker. I am currently in production on my next documentary film entitled, Cuban America. This film will convey the historical importance, political significance, and economic influence that the Cuban exile community has had in the Miami-Dade/South Florida region and the effect it has on the U.S. political structure altogether for the past 50 years.

I plan on interviewing intellectuals from authors to professors like you, working class and white collar workers, former and active political leaders, Cuban restaurant, bar, and small business owners, Cuban American priests and pastors, a diversed blend of Cuban American citizens all over South Florida, residents of Little Havana, Hialeah, and Westchester, Mel Martinez, Florida Senator, Modesto Maidique, president of FIU, Julio Robaina, Mayor of Hialeah, and other significantly important people for this big project. All of my interviewees will freely express their experiences, insights and views on this important subject.

I want to include you in this film for many particular reasons. One, to help get in contact with prominent Cuban Americans who would like to tell their story and/or leave a legacy behind. Two, potential sponsors like Hispanic MPR or others who would be interested in funding this film project for completion. And three, more interesting interviews from various Cuban Americans who have a deep desire to express their views and provide their insights on camera. We are currently in production of this film within the next 12-18 months. I would like to get in contact with you in the next couple of weeks if not days so I can get the opportunity for you to provide me with what you know and perhaps, help me steer this film project in the right direction. Attached is the treatment to the documentary film. I think you would be an excellent if not necessary addition to this documentary film project.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely yours,

Mr. Adelin Gasana

Diane said,

Ms. Del Valle,
I’m writing to inform you of a new fund opened recently at the Triangle Community Foundation in Durham, North Carolina. The Tomorrow Fund serves to address the needs of Hispanic students at the post-secondary education level. We hope to give hope to high schoolers in NC whom are Hispanic so that they do not drop out of school. Currently, as you probably know, Hispanics have the highest dropout rate in the country. We are trying to solicit donations to the fund, particularly from the Latino professional community. We all have a vested interest in seeing these students complete their education instead of hitting the streets without education or employment. Any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated.

That is a wonderful idea! At HispanicMPR we try to support community causes as much as we can.

You are also welcome to write an article for our Guest Articles Section. I will be happy to share guidelines if that’s of interest.

Lily Guzman said,

I want to find a Hispanic Book distributor and agent for my books

CBH Books announces the publication of the novel El pueblo de Juan by Lily Guzmán.
This Spanish-language novel, based on true events, tells the story of Alborde, an
impoverished town where children cannot complete school because their parents are
migrant workers for several months each year. Juan, a boy from the town, realizes that
things have to change and he develops a plan to convert Alborde into a land of
opportunity, one step at a time. This is a tale of courage, solidarity, and the overall
commitment to bringing about change in our own communities.
El pueblo de Juan teaches young readers, and anyone interested in community
development, how to act at the local level in order to improve citizens’ lives. The book is
dedicated to the Iberian-American Union of Municipalities and it is a timely novel due to
the contemporary trend of emphasizing local action.
Lily Guzman was born in the Dominican Republic and immigrated to the United
States when she was a teenager. She studied at Barry University and received her
Master’s in Public Administration from the Carlos III University and the Institute of
Municipal Studies and International Cooperation in Granada, Spain. She currently works
as Consulting Manager of International Business Development at LGA, Inc. She also
serves as the US representative at the Iberian-American Union of Municipalists. She has
published short stories and several articles in Better Homes and Gardens and other
magazines.
The first chapter of El pueblo de Juan is available at scribd.com and the
book can be purchased at cbhbooks.com and amazon.com as well on the
author’s website: lilyguzman.com

David Garro said,

Hi Elena:
I’m from Argentina, and have published a book in Argentina in 2007 in Spanish language. I’ve recently translated it into English. The book consist of two science Fiction stories which content -or rather its topic- I here briefly explain:
First story
The whole story tells about a spiritual, or rather an intellectual dilemma between exacerbated individualism vs. Communitarian lifestyle. The emerging question is: why do find Anglo-Saxons an easy task auto structuring their communal life without strong intervention of law or state, whereas Latin Americans, for instance, can’t do likewise, and even being strongly controlled by law they always find a way around to skip it? The answer and, why not, the solution, is a long process that involve a rearrangement of guidelines which rule personal and social life,. The process mentioned is often a painful one, so, if the reader is clever, he will find less bloody and less painful to undergo this experience by enjoying the intellectual exercise of reading a fictional nightmare than pushing things too far in real life,till everything is lost, just like did the main character of the book story.

Second story
Envy is an unspeakable sin due to its mean nature, it’s 100% evil, therefore, it has no justification at all, and that’s why it has to do its evil work in only two ways, namely;

a) When the envious is an individual:
He has to do his evil against the envied from the shadows. As he can’t find any justification, he conceals his true intention by making up slanders and defamations against his victim.

b) When the envious are a group, a class or a nation:
The collective envy needs to be expressed outwardly by certain leaderships and upholding a dogma or ideology to justify their destructive work. Economic egalitarianism (or the so called “social justice”) has for more than a century been the best excuse the envious have used in order to make the successful and eminent individuals, groups or nations appear as criminals before the World’s eyes. These dogmas, by the force of its logic, push even good natured people from every corner of the world to dispossess and even murder the successful. Terrorism is an extremely complex social, political and religious phenomena, however, envy should be considered one of its main and deepest causes.
Marketing:
The Topic and its implicit values
There are quite a few “vaccines” against envy. The most effective one resides in the moral values’ realm. Kids should be taught in an early age to value other’s achievements.
Once we are grownups and we are already used to compare ourselves to the neighbour (that’s the source of envy feeling), there’s little one can do about it. The only beam of light that can save us from envious feelings at this stage is “reason”. Only good sense can undo the envious feeling. This is one of the purposes of the book.

As you can notice, the book -if wisely marketed- stands serious chances to become a bestseller in the USA market.
I would much appreciate you advise on what’s the next step I should make to put my book in USA and Canada
Thank you

3D Learner, a 12-year old Boca Raton based education program, is now offering our program in both English and Spanish

We would like to educate the Hispanic Moms about what they should know about the private and public schools in South Florida, and how they can help their child succeed

We also want to educate them on learning differences (where their child is more of a visual learner, and visual processing and attention issues

We have recently added a Spanish Speaking Professional to our team Victoria Alvarez, and can now train the students in English and train the parents in either Spanish or English

For those coming from outside the country, we could do both the training of the child and the parents in Spanish - and our support material is also available in Spanish

Would like to speak with you to discuss the opportunities

We can be reached at 561-361-7495

Dear Elena,

My name is Eric Parsons and I am with Rueda Racing Kings (RRK), a NASCAR K&N Pro Series stock car race team. RRK is a Latino owned company bringing the Latino culture and flavor to the NASCAR world. Because of our minority owned status, RRK is recognized as a
Driver Diversity Team, which is a designation shared only by a few teams in the sport offering greater marketing exposure and funding by NASCAR.

The purpose of this correspondence is to seek a partnership with your company in our quest to raise corporate sponsorship in the amount of $5,000,000. Please review our corporate sponsorship presentation and compensation proposal for our marketing partners.
(URLs for both are below the SIG file)

The question you may be raising is why RRK is not spearheading business development
relationships in house. The answer is simple – the market has changed considerably and
we believe partnering with your firm will extend our reach and efficiency.

Partnering with firms such as yours, and holding a “minority owned” business status, will
provide RRK with a competitive advantage over our other NASCAR teams granting us
access to corporate marketing dollars set aside and committed to under-served yet highly
valuable audiences, such as the Hispanic communities in the South West and West Coast.

I welcome the opportunity to discuss in greater detail with you. I encourage you to contact
me at your earliest convenience.

–
Sincerely,

Eric Parsons

Elena

I have been receiving your emails for sometime now. Thank you I enjoy the information. Ive been in the events and promotion business for sometime now and am about to journey on my own.

I’m just starting my business plan and looking for good sources for industry information in the Hispanic Media, Marketing, Entertainment and Music industry. The past few years I’ve been producing my own Public Access Cable TV show (Latin Reggae - Music and Talk Show), Internet Radio, Magazine ( Bloque Urbano - on my 4th edition going on 5th) Digital Publicity, Street and Online Marketing, Events and promotion and Talent management. I’m all over the place.

I live in NY but I travel to the Caribbean, Central America and Canada hosting events, promotions and interviewing artists. All of this and I’ve only done it as a hobby! I have contacts all over and now I want to start my own business.

I have an idea. I wont go into to much but I want to really research the industry and I’m not sure where to start.

Can you be of assistance?

Thank you
Jen Nieves
