Campaign US asked Hispanic creatives to share their favorite culturally relevant campaigns, and we were flattered to be shouted out not just once, but twice! ⭐⭐ ➡️ Luis Núñez at VaynerMedia New York said that our “El Béisbol es Otra Cosa” campaign with Major League Baseball (MLB) was a standout: 📣 “The spot touches on everything from music, food, family, style, language, lingo and traditions to the game itself. The work is aspirational, emphasizing and celebrating the many great players of the past and present.” ➡️ Patricia Ortiz Director at The Martin Agency, highlighted “Más Que”, the campaign we collaborated on with Target as one of her top picks:  📣 “I love how they collaborated with creators across design and food, bringing rich, vibrant and authentic reflections of today's culture. Target’s partnership with Remezcla was the perfect way to highlight the audience in a fresh, dynamic way.” Thanks to Luis and Patricia for the shout outs, and to Bailey Calfee for passing the mic to the Latine creative community. Let this serve as a reminder to continue supporting Latine communities and creativity — not just during Hispanic Heritage Month, but all year long. 📅 https://bit.ly/48uIagg

What does it take to create new space for diversity in beauty and beyond? Our Editor in Chief Thatiana Diaz took the stage at Advertising Week New York with our client SEPHORA’s Brent Mitchell, My Code’s Alexandra Kennedy, and Digitas North America’s Danisha Lomax to address this question — and how brands can champion the advancement of representation in the beauty industry. 🎙️ Here are the panel’s top takeaways: ⛔ No lip service. Spend time with the communities you want to connect with. Invest time to listen and make consumers feel seen, heard and most importantly — supported. This community investment will change the perception of your brand and increase brand lift. 🔊 Turn up the volume during heritage months, but ensure you’re showing up intentionally and proactively year-round in multifaceted ways. If the first question asked is “What should we be doing for X month?” you need to look internally.  Being part of a community requires real participation—365. 🌐 Listen to your audience, and make sure you know where they are. The comment section should not be feared, it’s a gold mine of content and feedback. Learn where your audience is interacting with your brand and make sure you’re active in that space. There are no tricks of the trade when investing in diverse communities. But the panelists agree, doing the above will ensure that your strategy resonates. Did you catch us at #AWNewYork24? Say 👋🏽

It’s time to stop relying on outdated stigmas and missing the mark with Latine communities — eg. assuming we only consume Latine-centric content like telenovelas or music from Bad Bunny.  👀🎶 We know our mainstream buying power, and so should everyone else. For instance – did you know that Latines account for 24% of all movie ticket sales, the highest of any group 🎟️? So why are brands still struggling to connect with us? Our editor in chief Thatiana Diaz shares what marketers need to connect with Latine communities: 📣 Don’t talk at us, talk to us – Too often, content feels like a lesson on our own identities, wrapped in forced Spanglish or cultural clichés. Let Latine collaborators and writers lead the conversation instead. 📣 We’re more than just our Latinidad – Yes, our culture is a big part of who we are, but brands need to understand that we aren’t confined to one box—we are general market consumers who engage with content and products beyond our heritage. 📣 Commit long term – Brands often expect instant results after a single campaign then pull back when results aren’t delivered overnight. Building real trust with Latine communities takes long-term commitment, and we notice when you’re only checking a box. If brands want to build a real relationship with Latine audiences, you have to understand us first.  ➡️ That means investing beyond a one-off effort and committing long-term, whether that’s through content, campaigns or representation.

The creator economy is projected to nearly double in the next five years, from $250 billion today to an estimated $480 billion by 2027. 🚀 But *which* creators should your brand be collaborating with? That’s the golden question. ➡️ Our executive creative director Morris Dávila is here to help. 👇🏽 Today on ADWEEK, Morris explains why brands should embrace “craft creators” — defined by their artistry, not by content creation, follower counts or brand partnerships. Here’s 4 reasons why: 🎨 They’re cultural pioneers — craft creators are often the originators of the influential trends we see on social media. 🎨 Craft creators spark more positive engagement. Since they are less likely to brand hop, their partnerships ring authentic, and their communities respond and take pride when a major brand recognizes their work. 🎨 It’s a win-win — when brands support emerging talent, they help sustain creators’ passions while expanding their reach. Creators gain visibility, and brands are elevated through authentic collaborations. 🎨 Collaborating with diverse talent not only demonstrates your support for the Latine community but also introduces fresh perspectives from individuals navigating life across multiple cultures, adding depth to your brand’s story. Check out the full op-ed below to learn more about how to invest in craft creators (with examples of how we’ve done it!), and stay tuned for more from our #HispanicHeritageMonth Voices series on Adweek! ➡️ https://bit.ly/3N5J88T

If you're struggling to connect with Latine audiences, you might just need a fresh perspective—or local vocabulary. The various terms of Spanish slang highlight the resilience and importance of local language! 🍿 Take “popcorn,” for instance — while it’s always “popcorn” in English, in Spanish it could be “palomitas,” “rosetas de maíz,” or “cotufas” depending on where you’re from…  In the latest op-ed for our #HispanicHeritageMonth Voices series with ADWEEK, our creative director Daniel Gonzalez dives into how marketers and creatives can use slang as the bridge to really resonate with Latine audiences ( ➡️https://bit.ly/4gyV9kX) His top tips? ✅ There isn’t one standard language model that will give the work a universal appeal, so cast people who reflect the culture of the audience you want to reach! ✅ Write scripts that pay homage to the Latine communities that are reflected in the target audience. This plants a tiny seed for everyone to catch something that speaks to them directly. ✅ Trust the instinct to connect with your fans 1:1 — You don’t need to fully understand every individual fan (or dance with them), to lean into their diversity and nuance. What’s your favorite Spanish slang? Let us know in the comments below, and don’t forget to check back for next week’s op-ed on Latine creator representation ⬇️ https://bit.ly/3MQpzRV
