Next week, marketing experts will present different ways on how marketers can reach Hispanic consumers at the U.S. Hispanic Marketing Conference, held at the Hilton Del Mar in San Diego, California from Monday through Thursday. During the conference, which is produced by the International Quality and Production Center, speakers will share marketing approaches and available strategies to brand products to the escalating Hispanic consumer population in the United States.
“The conference is not just about a marketing division, but on how people can market Hispanic brands,” said Naomi Secor, conference director for IQPC. “It’s a certain market and certain messages need to be branded a certain way.”
Presenters Derene Allen, senior vice president, Santiago Solutions and Elena del Valle, MBA, principal, LNA World Communications
The event will include case study driven presentations, discussion panels, and several workshops. Those expected to speak during the workshops include Elena del Valle, editor of Hispanicmpr.com, Cary Davis, vice president of Multicultural Advertising Sales for ABC Radio Networks Inc, Claudia Phillips, COO of Hispanic Digital Network, Lee Vann, principal of Captura Group, and Derene Allen, senior vice president of Santiago Solutions.

“Everyone speaking has already put award-winning campaign,” said Secor. “Those attending will learn new ways to market, and they could learn how to take an existing brand and market it to Hispanics. There are now Hispanic figures for kids and network opportunities for marketing professionals.”
