SBC Advertising Wins Judge's Choice, 14 ADDY Awards

Columbus, OH (February 28, 2008) – All eyes were on SBC Advertising at the Columbus Advertising Federation's annual ADDY Awards where the city's most creative agencies were honored. By evening's end, SBC had collected some serious hardware - a Judge's Choice Award, seven gold and seven silver ADDY awards. The annual ADDY Awards, central Ohio's largest advertising industry competition, recognize outstanding achievements in creativity and excellence in advertising.

"What better way to grace our new location than with the recognition of our most valuable asset at SBC - our people. Some people say they don't like awards and that the true measure is our client's success. True; but shiny and sparkly awards on our new awards shelf start the year out on the right foot," said Matt Wilson, executive vice president/general manager for SBC Advertising.

SBC Advertising was honored in multiple categories, most notably with a Judge's Choice Award for its Huntington Colts Banking web site. The agency received seven gold ADDY's for work on the Ultimate Software Best Places to Work Sales Kit; Krazy Glue Life's Little Emergencies Media Kit; Elmer's Run/Stay Print Ad; Huntington Brewery District Grand Opening Campaign; Huntington Colts Banking web site and the HoneyBaked Ham Pilgrim Television Ad. SBC's gold-winning work was automatically forwarded for consideration in the fifth district ADDY competition to be held March 29-30 in Cincinnati, Ohio.

SBC was also awarded seven silver ADDY's for its work on the Elmer's Go Paint Media Kit; Huntington Brewery District Grand Opening; Schottenstein Zox & Dunn Whiteboard web site; Big Lots North Pole microsite and the Huntington Colts Banking Campaign.

AdFed Columbus hosts the Columbus ADDY awards competition to recognize the area's best creative efforts. This year's competition had over 500 entries from 44 companies. Entries were judged in three different categories: Traditional/Print, Broadcast/Radio and Interactive/Web.
