“After many years as a member of the Emerald Coast Advertising Federation, we made the calculated decision to transfer our membership to the Panama City Chapter,” said Lisa Burwell, president and owner of Cornerstone Marketing & Advertising, Inc. located in Grayton Beach, Florida. “Some of our largest clients are in the Panama City Beach region, and we want to strategically position ourselves in this region for them and for the opening of the new Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport.”
“As new members of AAF – Panama City, this is the first year for Cornerstone Marketing & Advertising Inc. to be a part of our local tier of the ADDY competition,” said Pamela Kidwell, 2009–2010 ADDY Committee Chair. “We are proud for their accomplishments and we welcome their involvement.”
Cornerstone had a successful evening, winning 32 awards including 11 Gold, 17 Silver, two Best of Show, and two Judges Choice awards (see below).
“We were honored to receive so many distinguished awards this year at the ADDY Awards Gala,” said Burwell. “The great work of our creative team, led by vice president of creative services Bob Brown, creative director Eric Shepard, and graphic designer Tracey Thomas, really shined. I’m very proud of the amazing job done by the entire Cornerstone team.”
Cornerstone bills itself as “The Idea Boutique®,” which specializes in award-winning advertising campaigns, public relations, marketing, and consulting for real estate developments, restaurants, retailers, resorts, nonprofit institutions, and financial institutions. Located in Grayton Beach, Florida, Cornerstone functions as a “think tank” for intelligent, fresh, and luminous ideas that flourish into effective advertising and marketing programs.
The local ADDY Awards is the first of a three-tiered national competition conducted annually by the American Advertising Federation. It is the industry’s largest and most representative competition for creative excellence. Work awarded a Gold ADDY or the highest Silver ADDY will proceed to the second of the three-tiered level—the Fourth District ADDY Awards. The fourth district winners are then eligible for the ultimate competition, the National ADDY, presented by the American Advertising Federation in June of each year.
