Media Sales careers are endangered as more and more business goes online and “self-serve.” Of course, these are the people who also get the client’s name wrong in their own blog post….

Enrique Santos is the Chairman and Chief Creative Officer of iHeartLatino. He heads iHeartMedia’s Latin direction and strategy. His daily signature morning show is syndicated nationally via Premiere Networks and airs live from iHeart Miami’s TÚ 94.9!

Born to Cuban parents in Chicago, Illinois, Santos gravitates fluidly between the Hispanic and mainstream American radio landscapes. His bilingual broadcasts are a crossover hit combining humor, social satire, and political commentary to bridge the cultural and generational divide of a diverse cosmopolitan audience. Santos has built an enthusiastic following with a comedic repertoire consisting of phone pranks, interviews and a trademark form of fresh and unique interaction amongst celebrities. Enrique’s extravagant radio persona has made him one of the most popular Hispanic radio hosts in America and earned him unprecedented access to some of the biggest names in pop culture.

No matter how busy his schedule, Santos has never lost his community ties and continues volunteering as a Reserve Police officer for The City of Miami Police Department.

Link to New York Times write-up explains it all.

“iHeartMedia reflects our commitment to being the media company that provides the most entertainment to the most engaged audiences wherever they go, with more content and more events in more places on more devices,” said Bob Pittman, Chairman and CEO of iHeartMedia, Inc. “We have massive consumer reach and influence across our platforms because we know how to program the live content people want to hear, see and share right now, we are the largest mobile media company in existence — more than 60 percent of our broadcast usage is out of home, compared to just 30 percent for other mobile devices – and we deliver more live programming than any other media company today, built on the national and local on-air personalities who are the heart of our powerful broadcast radio franchises. Combined with Clear Channel Outdoor’s reach of over half a billion people worldwide across 30 countries and five continents, it’s clear that no other company can match our reach or broad spectrum of media platforms.”

Adding to the confusion, iHeartMedia is actually a holding company for iHeartCommunications. Outdoor will continue using the Clear Channel name, even though “clear channel” is originally a technical term in radio broadcasting.

“We are delighted to have a seasoned media executive with a proven track record of success to lead our multi-platform revenue efforts”, indicated Luis Roldan, Chief Operating Officer.

“Donny is a significant addition to our senior leadership team at America CV,” stated Omar Romay, CEO of ATV.

Previously, Donny had served as SVP of Sales for SBS where he held various management positions for the past 14 years. Additionally, Mr. Hudson was GSM for HBC where he worked for over 8 years. Mr. Hudson has over 25 years of progressive sales and management experience in the US Hispanic market.

After less than a decade of existence, smartphones and tablets this year will draw more money from advertisers than the centuries-old newspaper industry or the nearly century-old radio sector, a sign of just how rapidly technology is transforming media habits.
