To add to the celebration, local La Voz reader wins $5,000 in NAHP Readership Study contest
It was a normal day for Karen Castillo, a two year resident of Denver. She received a call from La Voz Publisher, Pauline Rivera, telling her that she had filled out a survey on the local Denver market in an effort to collect marketing/demographic information.
Castillo and her husband Guillermo are seeking political asylum. The Castillos, originally from Venezuela and along with two children, have made their home in Denver. Castillo was emotional about her good luck and was extremely appreciative to La Voz. She adds, “Muchas gracias, Ms. Rivera, muy agradecida por el premio, estoy tan emocionada.”
The 2022 Readership Study conducted by Latino Media 24/7, Latinolytics is a long-awaited collection of marketing research about the Denver Market. The readership study will help advertisers and clients understand the market, demo- graphics, buying habits and incredible buying power within Denver’s Latino market.
So next time you see a contest you feel you have no chance in winning, take another look.
Congratulations to Ms. Castillo. We thank you for your input.
