Telemundo’s offerings to advertisers for the upcoming season include four different cross-platform opportunities, according to the company’s upfront presentation Tuesday night.
The marketing opportunities include a telenovela, a dating game show, the Mexican Soccer League, and Back to School, all of which include online components, mobile platforms and retail and in-store advertising, writes Mediaweek. Sweeps and contests are also included.
The telenovela, Idolos de Juventud (Youth Idols), is about a popular music producer who produces a reality show to find singing stars. The dating show, 12 Corazones: Rumbo al Altar, is a weekend version of the weekday dating game sereis.
