The Marketing and Communications staff of the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) is the recipient of four 2009 Davey Awards for creative excellence. The honors, the product of the fifth annual competition presented by the International Academy of the Visual Arts, recognize the most effective marketing efforts among smaller agencies/companies worldwide.
IAPMO’s Marketing and Communications department supports and promotes the global work of The IAPMO Group through print and online advertisements, press releases, video, brochures, postcards, trade show displays and collateral and the award-winning Official magazine, among numerous other venues.
IAPMO’s award-winning submissions were chosen from a field of more than 4,000 entries. Following are the categories, awards won, the winning entry and the staff members responsible for each:
