DENVER (November 24, 2003) –
Calderon Hispanic Marketing has won the Silver
Award for their brochure submission entitled
“Fly Naked – Use Pens as Contraceptives”.
The award was presented by the League of American
Communications Professionals of San Diego,
CA, for the 2003 Spotlight Awards Publicity
Materials Competition.
The
brochure was created to increase awareness
of the importance for in-culture communication
in targeting the Hispanic market. The title
was a play off of blunders experienced by
former Braniff Airlines and the Parker Pen
Company when selling points for their products
or services were incorrectly translated.
Janina
Calderon-Ferguson, President of Calderon
Hispanic Marketing, commented, “This
award affirms our mission to master in-culture
communication to successfully reach the
Hispanic market. It is gratifying to be
recognized as one of the best by the leaders
of our industry. They understood that our
message was two-fold: the wrong translation
can cause embarrassment, and reaching the
Hispanic market without the appropriate
expertise is a lot like ‘flying naked’.
We’re delighted to receive this honor.”
Calderon

provides a full range of marketing, advertising,
