AARP has been a committed and consistent advertiser in the Hispanic market since 2011, with double-digit increases since entering the market.\u00a0Their 360 approach, which encompasses advertising, branded content, public relations and public affairs efforts, earned them significant recognition in 2018, including <i>CMC Culture Account Planning Excellence Awards<\/i>, <i>Grand Prix<\/i> and <i>Gold<\/i> in the <i>Best Cultural Insight <\/i>category; the <i>North American <span class=\"xn-person\">Effie Award<\/span><\/i>, <i>Multicultural<\/i> and <i>Lifestyle Segments; New York Festivals<\/i>\u00ae <i>International TV &amp; Film Awards<\/i>, <i>Society and Social Issues<\/i>; <i>New York Latino Film Festival<\/i>, <i>Finalist in Documentary Category<\/i>; Public Relations Society of America&#8217;s NY <i>Big Apple<\/i> Awards and Hispanic Public Relations Association&#8217;s <i>\u00a1Bravo! <\/i>Awards in the\u00a0Non-Profit Category for &#8220;Media Event of the Year&#8221; and &#8220;Public Affairs Campaign of the Year&#8221; category.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a time when some brands that were once at the forefront of Hispanic Marketing have reduced levels of investment or taken short-cuts on Hispanic creative, AARP has reinforced its efforts to become a leading example of excellence in Hispanic marketing, communications and outreach,&#8221; said CMC Chair <span class=\"xn-person\">Isaac Mizrahi<\/span>, co-president\/COO of Alma. &#8220;A big congratulations to AARP and its culture marketing agency <b>d&#8217;Exposito &amp; partners<\/b>!&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><b><u>Culturally-Fluent Brand Campaign<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p>With AARP having the pulse on the U.S. 50-plus segment, the brand paired its robust data with meaningful cultural insights and idioms to create a memorable and motivating brand campaign that drove brand awareness, familiarity and relevance. A multichannel media strategy delivered the campaign utilizing national television, local radio, national magazines and a robust digital plan that included display, audio, online video, paid search and YouTube. <\/p>\n<p><b><u>Redefining the Narrative on Aging<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Today, people are reinventing themselves and achieving noteworthy accomplishments at any age. To address these dynamics, AARP launched the Cincuenta\u00f1eros\u2122 movement, which challenges outdated beliefs and sparks new solutions so that people can choose how to live as they age. The movement leverages the power of social media to shape mainstream conversation, utilizing celebrities and social media influencers that personify the Cincuenta\u00f1eros concept to lend their voices by sharing their experiences.<\/p>\n<p><b><u>An Innovative Approach to Family Caregiving Education<br \/><\/u><\/b>To generate awareness and address the issue of family caregiving, AARP produced &#8220;<i>Cada paso del camino<\/i>,&#8221; a film documentary that tells the story of five Hispanic caregivers, in late 2017. The film was released on aarp.org\/espanol\u00a0with segments published on AARP&#8217;s Hispanic Facebook page, as well as national broadcasts. \u00a0The award-winning documentary was screened at film festivals and in local markets across the country, followed by panel discussions that featured subjects in the film.<\/p>\n<p><b><u>Public Affairs-Driven Campaigns to Empower 50+<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p>For the 2018 mid-term elections, AARP launched a dedicated voter engagement outreach campaign, called &#8220;<i>S\u00e9 la diferencia. Vota&#8221; <\/i>to encourage Hispanics age 50-plus to use their voices and vote.\u00a0The overarching message strategy was customized for this segment to engage them both culturally and emotionally and mobilize them to vote. Creative assets included television spots, online videos, print ads, direct mail, email blasts and collateral materials. AARP also launched <i>Aliados<\/i> <i>Adelante <\/i>a dedicated Facebook page with content and conversation on key issues of importance to Hispanics.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, AARP launched a policy agenda, called <i>Disrupting Racial and Ethnic Disparities<\/i>, to address the grave disparities that exist among people of color age 50-plus in <span class=\"xn-location\">New York<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Michigan<\/span>. AARP commissioned three policy briefs to launch a 3- to- 5-year initiative to identify solutions and implement the necessary policy changes. \u00a0AARP unveiled the policy briefs at key stakeholder events that included the participation of policy experts, community leaders, academics, elected officials and mainstream and ethnic media.
