They began with Venezuelan duet Chino y Nacho, whom after the promotion got a record deal with Universal Music Latin. Servando y Florentino, L'Squadron, Treo, Obie Bermudez and Jerry Rivera are some of the bands he had an assisting role in bringing to Miami the following years.

Galavis began filming television commercials, and had a short stint working as a television presenter for a Miami-based, spanish sports show, Mega News.

Galavís appeared as a contestant on the reality television show The Bachelorette in May 2013, but subsequently lost the competition. Juan Pablo is the next bachelor!
