Many practitioners target multicultural audiences. Hispanic markets are one of the most important emerging multicultural markets. The practice of public relations by Latinos and targeting Latinos requires knowledge and understanding of the Latino markets.
During the teleconference, Tovar, president Tovar PR LLC, will address questions such as: What do public relations practitioners successful penetrating Latino markets do? What are the trends in the market? What has brought about current practice characteristics and how do the past trends influence the future? What impact does this have on the day-to-day practice of Hispanic public relations?
The presentation promises listeners will have an opportunity to: Learn how the Hispanic public relations market is growing and changing in response to demographics; identify value-added partnership opportunities for public relations practitioners; discuss the changing market demand for Hispamic public relations infrastructure; explore how public relations firms can partner with Hispanic public relations professionals; and examine the value of Hispanic public relations professionals across marketing and advertising disciplines.
