Marketing the Hispanics, with no español

Many people have thought from the beginning of time that there should be an

easy way to do things, shortcuts, I mean. Well for many American companies is not that easy, when it comes to target the Hispanics (or Latinos as we prefer to be addressed) marketing goods and services to

them is tough.

The wide spectrum of the Hispanic groups existing in the US came across countries and language borders where many things have probably different meaning across cultures.

If your… Continue

¿Quién soy?

Por Héctor Pina

MIAMI - En las escuelas de mi país me enseñaron que las razas humanas se dividían en varios subgrupos: la blanca, la negra, la amarilla, la parda, la roja y algunos textos también mencionaban la mestiza y la pampa entre estas categorías. Así pues, crecí con la certeza de que era miembro de una casta específica. Sin embargo, y para mi sorpresa total, al llegar a Estados Unidos me endilgadron una nueva raza: la hispana o latina.

Confundido, corrí a una… Continue

WHAT AM I?

by Hector Pina

MIAMI - In my country I was taught that the human race was divided in several subgroups: White, black, yellow, brown, red, and some text also mentioned the “mestizo” and the “Pampa” among these categories. So, I grew up thinking that I belonged to a specific race. However, and to my total surprise, a new one was palmed off on me when I arrived in the United States: Hispanic or Latino.

In total confusion, I ran to a nearby library and also navigated the Internet in… Continue

Securing a position is a full time job!

I have had the pleasure of working with some very savvy execs in my life, some have been fortunate enough to have God given talents in the business world and some not so much. I also have had the dis-pleasure of watching upper level VP's lose their positions due to downsizing or even lack of performance, not a good experience to be on the sidelines watching this , but I'd rather be watching than participating....So this brings me to my point here...no matter where you are in your career, a… Continue

Gary Axelbank speaks against homophobic Rev. Diaz‏

Just wanted to share something with you. Gary Axelbank, who used to host a news show on Bronxnet, posted a video commentary against Reverend Ruben Diaz on the West Bronx News blog. He is a straight guy speaking out against the Reverend's homophobia, particularly about an anti-gay marriage ad that the Reverend took out in Bronx papers.

A lesson from the sea

Sometime in the late nineteenth century, two brothers were orphaned by an influenza epidemic in the Catalan region of Spain. The boys, 11 and 16, wandered to Barcelona where they found work aboard a merchant ship. When they arrived in the port of Havana and heard stories of cheap, arable land in Cuba's interior, the brothers slipped off the boat and headed inland. Within a decade, the brothers became the owners of a sizable farm and a thriving produce business. The younger sibling was my… Continue

Laid off? Hispanics Seek to Understand COBRA and Affordable Health Insurance Choices
