Verizon Kicks off Bienvenido a lo Mejor
Today Verizon and award-winning actress Gina Rodriguez, a Hispanic Lifestyle 2015 Latina of Influence kicked off Bienvenido a lo Mejor, a nationwide campaign to engage Hispanic millennials with experiences and connections that can fuel their fast, varied and always-on lifestyles. For today’s consumers, access to the people and passions that matter most is essential to staying culturally-connected and inspired. Verizon is listening to their consumers and inviting them to win exclusive, one-on-one experiences with some of the most exciting and inspiring individuals in the food, entertainment, beauty and sports worlds.
“Every day I count on my personal and professional connections to help motivate me to be the best I can be,” said Gina Rodriguez. “Whether it’s a text to my friends, calls to my family or a video chat with my director, Verizon allows me to stay connected wherever I may be.”
Gina and Verizon are asking consumers to share why they want to connect with these individuals via Twitter or Instagram using #LoMejorDeMi and tagging @Verizon starting today through August 15. Consumers can enter via videos, images or simply a written entry for the chance to win an exclusive experience and create videos that will be socially shared with:
