Advisors Excel Takes Home 20 Regional Advertising Awards

Members of the Creative team accepted awards for print and Web design, video production and copywriting. Two of the 20 awards received Best of Show honors.

The American Advertising Awards recognize and reward the creative spirit of excellence in the art of advertising. The advertising industry's largest and most representative competition, it attracts over 40,000 entries every year in local AAF Club competitions.

Nine of the AE Creative team’s awards were at the Gold level. A Gold ADDY represents the highest level of creative excellence and is judged to be superior to all other entries.
