Smart Media Consulting receives Bronze Quill Award of Excellence
October 29, 2009
Smart Media Consulting received a Bronze Quill Award of Excellence in the Internet/Non-Commercial category Oct. 28, 2009 from the Arkansas chapter of the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC/Arkansas).
The award recognized the firm’s work last year in developing the Web site for an episode of the ABC television program Extreme Makeover: Home Edition that was filmed in Bigelow, Arkansas featuring Job McCully. The award was the only award of excellence in either the Internet/Commercial or Internet/Non-Commercial categories.
Smart Media Consulting was recruited by the producers of the program in 2008 to develop the Web site that was used for recruiting volunteers and donations as well as providing information about the construction schedule. The site also included a blog that detailed the progress of the build, photo galleries, and visitor comments. The site can still be viewed at http://www.thehousejackbuilt.com/extreme/.
Designed to recognize and honor statewide creative excellence in business communications, the Bronze Quill Awards are presented annually by IABC/Arkansas. Bronze Quill nominations are open to both IABC members and non-members, and entries are judged by IABC-member panels from other chapters throughout the United States. Scoring is based on a seven-point scale, and awards are presented at two levels: awards of excellence and awards of merit.
