AN HONOR WE DON’T TAKE LIGHTLY
We’re proud to be named a Graphis Master
Celebrating Success at the 2019 Bell Awards
Traction Factory and clients earn 11 awards at annual ANA Milwaukee event.
Scott Bucher
Last week was a big deal for Traction Factory.
We finally experienced two glorious days of late spring warmth here in Walker’s Point. Our hometown Milwaukee Bucks won the first two games of the 2019 NBA Eastern Conference Finals. And our Traction Factory team came home with eleven Bell Awards (listed below) at the annual award show hosted by ANA Business Marketing Milwaukee.
We’re thrilled with the outcome at the ANA Bell Awards – and for a couple of reasons. First, we’ve long believed the best client work happens at the intersection of art and commerce. The national panel of client- and agency-side professionals judging this year’s Bell Awards recognize work that is strong creatively, is top-of-category from a strategic perspective and has demonstrated measurable business results.
Second, the awards presented at this year’s Bell Awards show, when added to the more than 100 awards presented to TF over the last 8 years at this show, is recognition of this team’s ability to deliver consistent high-level client work over time.
I’m very proud of our team. The eleven awards represent work produced in collaboration with six unique clients. That trusting partnership is incredibly important to us and to the process. The result: each client team has the same expectation. Kick-ass work. It happens here.
