When you lean into culturally sound content creation with heart, people will show up to support you. In this episode of "I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY," Chris Majocha and Samí Haiman-Marrero sit down with Marky Marcano, the Founder and CEO of The Marky Marcano Productions and MMTV Studios to talk about how staying true to our roots and understanding audience preferences inform the continuous development of content…successfully.
Marky's journey as a Producer, TV Host, and culturally mindful Content Creator has been nothing short of remarkable. His stewardship of culture and tradition, as well as his impact as a Puerto Rican in the diaspora, has earned him the affection of loyal fans. “Even though I live in Florida, every time I visit Puerto Rico and I’m interviewed, my friends and relatives in my hometown knock on each other’s doors to make sure they tune in to see me on TV. Having that kind of support is priceless and very humbling,” Marky shares.
With over 14 years of experience, Marky has seamlessly transitioned from his early days in radio to embracing digital technology and podcasting in recent years. His dedication to his craft has earned him prestigious recognitions in his native Puerto Rico such as the Premios Paoli Award, among others.
Every Monday, without fail, Marky broadcasts the Marky Marcano Show LIVE, showcasing his persistence, genuine love for community, and unwavering self-confidence. He just recently reached a major milestone –producing his 500th show. He marvels, “Imagine that! I started using my cell phone to create content. It was very hard to start, but now I have this platform to do what I love and share it with others.”
Despite his global reach and success, Marky remains grounded in his culture and values. A champion of new talent, he opens doors and his generous collaborations with fellow creators is a testament to the power of authenticity and perseverance in achieving success while staying true to one's humanity. He’s a fervent advocate for social causes and the arts, using his platform to invite the community into meaningful discussions and always ensuring to present a positive spin on trending topics to empower the Latino community.
