Martz Parsons Takes Home 11 Trophies at the 2015 American Advertising Federations ADDY Awards
Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) March 24, 2015 -- Martz Parsons, a top-ranked, full-service advertising and public relations agency based in Scottsdale, won 11 awards in various categories at the 2015 Phoenix ADDY Awards. ADDY Awards are the advertising industry’s largest and most representative competition, attracting more than 40,000 entries each year in American Advertising Federation (AAF) club competitions. The mission of the ADDY Awards is to recognize and reward the creative spirit of excellence in the art of advertising.
Martz Parsons took home one gold and seven silver awards for its Armored Nutshellz campaign titled Protect your Equipment. The agency also earned two silver and one bronze for its Valley of the Sun YMCA entry.
The Agency’s rapid growth over the last 16 months, since it was acquired by well-known businessman and philanthropist Bob Parsons, has catapulted its ability to support its clients. The Agency has more than doubled in talent, bringing in top players including David Richardson as the Chief Digital Officer and Patrick Kelley as the Chief Creative Officer. Richardson has more than 30 years of agency experience, many spent creating and hosting websites for large, national clients like NASCAR, Pulte Homes, The Dial Corp. and Arizona Diamondbacks. Kelley has 20-plus years of marquee agency experience and has worked at several of the top creative shops in the world.
“It’s a testament to the expanded talent we have added to the Martz Parsons agency over the past year that we went from two ADDY awards in 2014 to one gold, nine silver and one bronze this year,” said Martz Parsons Chief Creative Officer Patrick Kelley. “I believe this recognition reflects the team’s dedication to creative excellence and their commitment to elevating our clients’ brands."
The success of both the Armored Nutshellz and Valley of the Sun YMCA campaigns affirms Martz Parsons’ growth into a major player in the regional and national markets.
Martz Parsons will move on to compete in the upcoming Regional AAF Award Competition that showcases work from organizations in Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah and New Mexico. The winners will advance to the national competition taking place on June 13, 2015.
