HPNG Latino Leaders Networking Event Invitation - November 15th in New York


Dear Friends and Colleagues:

You’re invited to the HPNG Latino Leaders Networking Event on November 15th in New York.

A few years ago an HPNG member introduced me to a young man who had just arrived in New York from the mid-West. He embodied the adventurous spirit of those who journey to the Big Apple with big dreams and big ambitions. I was glad to share some advice and make some introductions, but what he achieved in the next few years would change the Latino social media landscape in a way nobody could have imagined.

Please join us as we proudly welcome:

Mr. Lance Rios
President & Founder
Being Latino

Lancio (Lance) Antonio Rios grew up on the west side of Cleveland, Ohio. Lance’s long-time interest in Latino cultures and communities spiked when he accepted an internship in the South Bronx in New York. After witnessing the diversity of the Latino culture in the area, he realized that he found a community seeking a platform to bring them together. Through finessing his skillset in Hispanic sales and marketing at MTV tr3s, VME, and VEVO.com, he decided to take his concept and company, Being Latino, to another level.

Since its launch in May of 2009, Being Latino has experienced exponential growth with support from Latinos who care about discussing history, culture, entertainment and social issues. Being Latino has organically harnessed over 80,000 fans with an additional 170+ Latino-based fan pages on Facebook, a tremendous following on Twitter and its own YouTube channel with a reach of over 200,000 people, all launched with no startup funds. Lance is also a partner and shareholder of Hispanicize and Latina Mom Bloggers, two leading companies in the Latino social media space.

Their new website, www.BeingLatino.us, is a nationally recognized, engaging, community targeted brand, serving a demographic of English-dominant, bilingual Latinos. In addition, their new venture DigiBunch, is a company dedicated entirely to social media video production and distribution.

Having received many awards for his innovative creations, Lance Rios has turned Being Latino into a nationally recognized leader within the Latino Social Media space.

Don't miss it, I'll see you there!

HPNG Entrepreneurs October Networking Event in New York



Dear Friends & Colleagues:

You're invited to the HPNG Entrepreneurs Networking Event on Tuesday, October 30th in New York.

Latinos and food are bound to each other by more than just exciting flavors. Our food is a source of pride and it's a front-runner in the way it shapes our culture.

The business of Latino food runs the gamut from the humble taco truck to the high-end hotspots frequented by celebrities. However, it's safe to say that in this economy, any would-be restaurateur would think twice before venturing into this line of business.

So I invited the pros to help us navigate this territory. During our chat we'll explore the factors that help transform this service business from good to exceptional.

Please join us as we proudly welcome:

Ms. Johanna Mendoza
Chief Executive Officer
Taina Cafe

and

Mr. O'Neiell Espinal
House Manager
Soho House New York

Don't miss it, I'll see you there!

Does Social Media Have A Bad Romance With Latinos?

by , Sep 20, 2012, 10:00 AM
MediaPost Publications
Engage: Hispanics
 

The Latino romance with social media has been a passionate one. We’ve embraced this frontier for the betterment of our careers and our businesses. We tweet, post, update, like and comment as we validate ourselves or denigrate stories and events. Along the way, often incidentally, we build communities and networks.

The trusted “go where they congregate” axiom in order to reach Latinos may be spot on, but somehow might not be generating the desired results.

It’s apparent that you are targeting the right demographic for your business or brand, and clearly its online community is engaged. But where are the click-throughs to your website or check-out page? The thing about Latino communities is that they retain many of the nuances of their real world counterpart. You will find the cliques, along with those observing from a safe distance, but notably, within this community resides the valued opinion of friends and peers regarding, well, everything.

Enter old-school, face-to-face marketing. Latinos have long regarded networking events as a social hub, a place to meet up with friends and colleagues from jobs long forgotten. As a result, many marketers have dismissed the effectiveness of these events due to their highly social style and lack of structure. It seemed like the logical alternative was to engage them online. Here’s where it gets tricky.

Latinos, like many in the general market, engage with brands that they relate to from their upbringing. So it’s not an either/or strategy. It would benefit marketers to position their brands visibly at the “ground floor” of engagement for Latinos, live events. Keeping in mind that these events have also evolved to reflect the nature of the modern Latino who is looking to expand his network and build business relationships outside of their industries. Big-name American liquor brands have become ubiquitous at Latino events because of their long-term vision as partners at social and business functions. As a result, they have become top-of-mind brands for the Latino demographic they covet.

In many instances, social media can be more effective as a retention tool, complementing face-to-face interactions with a brand, rather than an acquisition tool. One domestic automaker’s Hispanic site, along with Home Depot, have been implementing, and now extending, this strategy for a couple of years. Brand-driven events targeting specific demographics, such as Latinas, have shown to have a high follow-through of engagement online. The key, of course, is to have relevant content online and a strategy that can be replicated in a newly targeted geographic area.

The good news is, exclusive online acquisition strategies are evolving to take advantage of built-in Latino communities to promote their brand. Sidestepping a large-scale campaign that’s built and managed in-house, some marketers have found that targeted partner events have built-in credibility when endorsed and promoted by highly engaged online Latino communities. Threading boldly with this strategy is super retailer Best Buy with its newly formed partnership with Facebook’s most populated Latino community, Being Latino. Best Buy’s strategy appears that it will be exclusively an online initiative, featuring an original video series. Given their choice of partner, it’s a smart move, one that may be worth its gamble.

It’s often pointed out that Latinos have an innate desire to connect and get personal with those we do business with. As a marketer, you can chose to simply expose your brand to the Latino community or build a relationship that engages deeper than fleeting updates and tweets. Chances are, we want to meet you, too.

The Hispanic Professionals Networking Group invites you to its November 2nd Latino Leaders Networking Event in the Bronx


You're invited to HPNG's November 2nd Latino Leaders Networking Event in the Bronx.

At the age of twenty-three, Ruben Diaz, Jr. was elected to the New York State Assembly, which made him the youngest person elected to that legislative body since Theodore Roosevelt. Since then, with his career in politics and his passionate support of civil and human rights, he has demonstrated how Latino leaders put actions behinds their words.

Please join us as we proudly welcome:

The Honorable Ruben Diaz, Jr.
President of the Borough of the Bronx

Elected Bronx Borough President in the Special Election on April 21st, 2009, Ruben Diaz, Jr., previously served in the New York State Assembly since 1997, representing the 85th Assembly District.

Throughout his seven terms in the State Legislature, Ruben Diaz, Jr. was a champion for working families in the Bronx. He demonstrated passion for constituent service, social advocacy and community empowerment balanced with support for sensible, green economic development and job creation programs. He sponsored and secured passage of important and innovative laws to address the consequences of the intolerable levels of asthma in the South Bronx, healthcare insurance fraud, and quality of life concerns.

Borough President Diaz has proven himself to be a fearless and tireless advocate for justice and equality for all. A staunch defender of the environment, he is a leading voice against environmental racism and injustice and helped lead the fight to restore the Bronx River. Due to his tireless and relentless advocacy in the case of his constituent, Amadou Diallo - a law-abiding young African Bronx resident who was wrongly killed by four NYPD officers in a hail of 41 bullets – Ruben Diaz, Jr. became known around the world for his advocacy for civil and human rights.

A lifelong resident of the Bronx, Borough President Diaz lives in the Southeast Bronx with his wife Hilda Gerena Diaz and their two sons, Ruben Diaz III and Ryan Isaiah Diaz. He graduated from Lehman College, City University of New York, with a Bachelors degree in political theory.

HPNG Entrepreneurs Conference


Dear Colleague:

HPNG Entrepreneurs, in partnership with the New York City Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, invite you to the 1st Annual HPNG Entrepreneurs Conference in New York on October 3rd. The New York City Latin Media and Entertainment Commission has selected this conference to kick off its week-long series of events for the Latin Media and Entertainment Week during Hispanic Heritage Month.

I look forward to seeing you there!

Ali T. Curi
President
Hispanic Professionals Networking Group (HPNG)


FEATURED SESSION INCLUDE:

STATE OF THE SMALL BUSINESS INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
According to the National Bureau of Economic Research, the recession ended in June 2009. However, small businesses have continued to face credit difficulties in this challenging economic climate. But aside from lending concerns, small businesses are uncertain about the overall macroeconomy, reflected in business owners’ hesitation to hire new workers, expand businesses, or invest in new capital and equipment. This panel will explore the overall health of the small business industry as it relates to the Tri-State area and what upswings and downturns you can expect in the coming year.

Das Velez, Executive Director, Minority and Women Business Development, Empire State Development Corporation
Jorge P. Silva-Puras, Regional Administrator, NY, NJ, PR & USVI, Small Business Administration


TOOLS AND TACTICS: THE RIGHT TECH FOR THE JOB
Every business owner needs the right tools to have their business run smoother. However, what’s in your technology arsenal is as important as how you use it. The key is knowing what's available to help you increase your sales and marketing, manage your projects and of course, run the business.

Budgets are tight but most often, not acquiring the right tech for your business has to do with not knowing that a product exists that can help you do your job more efficiently. This session will present a number of free to low-cost tech tools and apps for your business such as website analytics tools, content marketing platforms, online document and calendar sharing, web-based email and how to effectively use video platforms, all designed to help you gain a competitive edge.

Google, Enterprise Small Business Team


REWARDING YOUR BUSINESS: DELTA AIR LINE'S SKYBONUS PROGRAM
The SkyBonus® program is all about rewarding your company for the business travel you give to Delta or any of our eligible airline partners. In North America, your earning opportunities are even greater as our joint venture partners Air France, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, and Alitalia are now participants in the SkyBonus program. This means your earning options and redemption options are now bigger than ever.

Nicolas E. Ferri, Vice President – Latin America and Caribbean, Delta Air Lines


ACCESSING CAPITAL AND SECURING YOUR COMPANY'S FUTURE
Over 50% of all investment dollars for start-ups and growing businesses are from informal sources, this includes money from family, friends and other private entities. What other sources of funding can you explore in a difficult economy that will facilitate your company's growth?

Darrin Redus, Chief Economic Inclusion Officer, JumpStart Inc.

HPNG Entrepreneurs Conference - A Message From NYC's Mayor Bloomberg

Dear Colleague:

You are invited to the HPNG Entrepreneurs Conference in New York on October 3rd.

And now, A Message From New York City's Mayor Bloomberg:

Dear Friends:

It is a great pleasure to join the New York City Latin Media and Entertainment Commission in celebrating the Second Annual Latin Media and Entertainment Week.

Our City thrives as an international capital of Latin business, art, and culture. More than two million of our City’s residents are Hispanic or Latino, and New York is home to the most Hispanic-owned businesses of any American city. Since 2003, the LMEC has worked especially hard to promote and strengthen the media companies that serve our Latin American communities as they grow even more prosperous.

This week’s events offer a terrific chance to network and discuss the latest developments in the business of Latin media and entertainment. LMEC has partnered with HPNG Entrepreneurs to present the HPNG Entrepreneurs Conference and help small businesses grow. LatinVision, in association with Interactive Advertising Bureau and LMEC, is presenting its CEOs Summit to demonstrate how businesses can contribute to and benefit from the future of Latin media. Finally, on Friday, Incisive Media will present Search Engine Strategies Latino, an expert panel on how to reach increasingly influential Hispanic and Latino consumers online.

Once again, Latin Media and Entertainment Week is an outstanding showcase of everything the LMEC and our partners in the private sector are doing to ensure that New York continues to set the pace for the Latin media and entertainment industry in the United States. On behalf of all New Yorkers, I offer my best wishes for an enjoyable and productive week here in the world’s greatest city.

Sincerely,
Michael R. Bloomberg
Mayor
