Profiles Wins Big at PRSA Awards

16 Jun

Our 2011 PRSA awards.

This past week, PR professionals from around the region gathered at the 50th annual Best in Maryland awards hosted by the Maryland Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America to see which organizations proved to be at the top of the industry in various categories. We are thrilled to announce that Profiles won three awards for work on behalf of our clients. We received the highest honor, two Best in Maryland Awards for our work on behalf of the Gregg Bernstein for Baltimore City State’s Attorney campaign and the American Craft Council Show in Baltimore, as well as an Award of Excellence for the planning and execution of RA Sushi Bar Restaurant’s Maki Madness event.

We won the Best in Maryland Award in the Non Profit/Pro Bono category for our work on a successful media relations program for a campaign that contributed to the 2010 election of Gregg Bernstein as Baltimore City State’s Attorney.  Bernstein defeated the 15-year incumbent.

We were also the first place winners in a new category- Tried and True-, which honors campaigns that have stood the test of time, continually helping the clients to meet their goals.  Profiles won the Best in Maryland award in this category for our marketing and public relations strategy on behalf of the American Craft Council Show in Baltimore, the largest indoor, juried craft show in the country.  Since we have been working with the Craft Council, attendance for the show in Baltimore has increased every year.

Finally, we were pleased to also be recognized in the Special Event and Celebration Category, winning an Award of Excellence for RA Sushi Bar Restaurant’s Maki Madness.  The sushi-eating contest is now known as one of the most competitive eating challenges in the region.  We are proud to say that due to the event’s success RA Sushi Bar Restaurant’s corporate office adopted our signature Maki Madness event model and it is now used company-wide at each of the restaurant’s 25 locations across the country.

It is an honor to be recognized among other top agencies in the region for our work.  Congratulations to all of the other firms who were recognized.  It feels good to be in such great company as the talented and accomplished PR professionals who were in attendance at the awards show.  We look forward to continuing to produce award-winning campaigns for our clients!
