In the Fort Lauderdale Club’s local competition, Brand Tango took home the Best of Digital Award and the Judges Award in the Sales and Marketing category, as well as four Gold and two Silver awards. All four of the entries that won Gold awards in local competition were again recognized in district competition. Among them, a concept book developed for Sweet Hair Professional won the Charlie Award, which is presented to the entry deemed the best in the entire Sales and Marketing/Sales Promotion categories.
