All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this. In the past, when I called myself a publicist and entrepreneur, my writing was often driven by a need to build my personal […]
There is hardly a worse monopoly than that of truth. Those who assume it or those who make it their own become walls of obstruction, blockage and stagnation. They usually do not visualize the cause, do not notice the flaw and ignore [...]
For those who believe in the invisible, the impossible is possible. And for an advertiser like me, a message like the one below can be forgiven the logo. I imagine it is possible to reinvent Costa Rica and raise it to the [...]
“From Why to How to What.” I was going through the resources in Prezi, when I came across a presentation with Simon Sinek and his 2009 Ted Talk. In today’s day and age it’s like from prehistoric times, and yet with ideas [...]

The Ojo de Iberoamérica awarded a brand new regional Gold to “Puppy” by Protecto, reaffirming what many of us thought: in the last Pregonero Darío Lanis, Alejandro Aguilera and Miguel Ángel Barahona excessively punished a winning piece, for sending a message to [...]
Little can be added to a week in which I enjoyed Tribu winning the first Grand Effie in Costa Rica on a Thursday, successfully organizing an Ignite on Saturday at Jazz Café Escazú and then seeing it win a gold on Monday, [...]
What a happy surprise! We entered a case in a category -Non-Profit- and won two Effies: 200% effectiveness. Unexpected! Also very happily received for “Osa en tu piel”, a campaign we built together, one step at a time, with the support, collaboration, [...]
After several years of efforts by ASCAP, the Costa Rican association of advertising agencies and commercial communication companies, the Effie has arrived in Costa Rica. Undoubtedly, it will be to celebrate creativity that delivers tangible, measurable and proven results. Here is a [...]
