HispanicAd.com & AHAA Announce First Hispanic Media Planning Awards.

A great creative idea is lost if not placed on the right media channel. In recognition of this, HispanicAd.com is teaming with the Association of Hispanic Advertising Agencies (AHAA) to honor some of the best media strategies targeting Hispanic consumers with the First HispanicAd.com Media Planning Awards.

Awards will be given to the best Hispanic media plans featuring TV, Radio, Internet, Magazines, Newspapers, Cable, Direct Mail and Out-of-Home as the dominate media of the campaign. An award will also be given to the best media plan for under $1 million.

“Just as house builders rely on a solid foundation, so do advertisers. Media plans provide the foundation for building winning brand strategies that connect with Hispanic consumers,” said Gene Bryan, president and CEO of HispanicAd.com. “As the authoritative voice of the Hispanic advertising industry, we are proud to partner with AHAA to sponsor the first media planning awards in the Hispanic advertising industry.”

HispanicAd.com will assemble seven of the brightest and most respected media planning executives in the Hispanic advertising industry as this year’s judges. HispanicAd.com and the judging panel will select the winning media plans. Submissions will be accepted by HispnaicAd.com, January 25 – February 23. Guidelines for entry are available at HispanicAd.com and www.ahaa.org.

A celebration and Media Awards presentation will take place during AHAA’s semi-annual conference in Scottsdale, Arizona March 27 – 31. In addition to the awards, the conference highlights media’s role in Hispanic Advertising. Full conference details are at www.ahaa.org.
