SOMERVILLE, MA- December 5, 2011- Fuseideas, a premier full-service advertising, interactive and public relations organization, today announced they were recognized as one of the 2011 PROMAX BDA Award winners. Fuseideas received a PROMAX Silver Award for Best Interactive Website for their work with CENERGY on the NHL Beard-A-Thon campaign.
PROMAXBDA Local selected the 2011 winners for the most outstanding promotion, marketing and design work in local broadcast. Winners were selected through a jury of their peers through a series of online and in-person judging panels and were announced on Tuesday, November 15, 2011 in New York City.
Fuseideas and CENERGY worked together on the campaign to create a fundraising approach that builds on an established tradition of the playoff season: the playoff beard. The Beard-A-Thon was created as a challenge for NHL fans. Fans would grow a beard to support not only their team in the Stanley Cup, but also their team’s associated charity. Together the companies developed all aspects of the web presence - social media, online PR, banners, and the design and deployment of all of the team websites.
“It is an honor to receive such a prestigious award from PROMAX. We could not have done it without our partner CENERGY, whom we worked extremely closely with to garner the success on the program. Beard-A-Thon is an interactive and exciting way to get hockey fans engaged with their teams for a great cause. We look forward to many more improvements to come on the program in coming years,” said Dennis Franczak, President and CEO of Fuseideas.
The PROMAX Award adds to the landslide of praise that Fuseideas has been awarded. The company received two prestigious Silver Mark Awards for its creative design work for Comcast and HBO. Fuseideas was named in the Top 10 New England-based web development firms by Boston Business Journal, with numerous awards for web development, as well as named by iMediaConnection as a national Top 10
“Creative agency to watch” in 2009. In addition Fuseideas has been the winner of numerous creative awards, most recently for a consumer DM campaign for Comcast International and a B2B DM campaign for HBO Latin America. Fuseideas was also the winner of two Bell Ringers for excellence in Public Relations and social media marketing.
