The American Advertising Federation Asheville (AAFA) has announced its
call for entries for the 2016-2017 American Advertising Awards. The group is
looking for the best advertising and marketing work of 2016 from Western North
Carolina. Winners have an opportunity to
showcase their work on a local level while also moving on to compete at the
district level and in the national awards.
“What we love about our local community
of creative professionals is that even though we are a small community, we are
a powerful one, filled with a lot of talent.” AAFA Co-President Aimie
Burns said. Laura Gaines, the organization’s other Co-President, commented on
what the awards can mean to a local marketing company. “What that really says
is Hey, Asheville, Creativity lives here. And works here too! If your brand needs
an upgrade, check out all of these award winning companies who are ready to
work with you!”
The deadline for entries to the first round of the
American Advertising Awards is Wednesday, January 18, 2017. Gold Award-Winning
entries will automatically be entered in the regional awards round and winners
from the regional competition will go on to compete in the national awards.

Local round winners will be announced at the Awards Gala, to be held on

Awards are an important part of the advertising
industry and a way for agencies and even freelancers to show potential clients
that their work meets the highest standards. The American Advertising Awards,
formerly known as the ADDYs, is among the most prestigious awards programs in
the industry. In addition to opportunities for professional entries in a wide
variety of categories, a student competition at a reduced entry price is open
to college students.
