(PRWEB) January 14, 2016 -- PM360, a leading health-marketing industry trade magazine, has announced the winners of their annual Pharma Choice Awards, which recognize the best healthcare creative campaigns and initiatives in 13 categories: Professional Campaign, Consumer and Professional Websites, Digital and Print Unbranded, Sales Aid, App, Print and Digital Self-Promotion, Video, DTC/DTP, Multichannel and Other. The 39 winners are featured in the January 2016 issue of PM360.
Since 2009, the PM360 Pharma Choice awards have recognized outstanding achievement and creativity in healthcare marketing. The awards are unique in that PM360 readers act as judges for the entries submitted by their peers. All submissions are placed online where readers vote for their favorites based on content, format, imagination, influence on the industry and overall quality. This year well over 6,000 votes were cast to decide the winners.
“These awards let the people who are responsible for breathing life into healthcare brands decide which of the year’s campaigns were truly the most creative,” says Anna Stashower, CEO and Publisher of PM360. “As always, the industry chose inspiring work that should give people something to strive for in the New Year—and perhaps even surpass.”
A Gold, Silver and Bronze award is given to the top three vote-getters in each of the 13 distinct categories. Additionally, overall top three vote-getters receive special recognition by appearing on the cover of the January 2016 issue. This year the top honors went to AbelsonTaylor’s “Amitiza Commercial” for Takeda Pharmaceuticals in the Video category, Artcraft Health’s “The Thrive App” Brought to by SAHM, sponsored by Pfizer and Unity in the App category, and MyPatientStory.com, LLC’s “Rare Patient News.
