Webreality wins Best Use of New Media 2006

Friday night saw the annual Chartered Institute of Marketing ball, where the good and great gather to slap each other on the back. We submitted Elect Jersey for the best use of new media 2006, and much to our surprise walked off with a coveted plate. We were also shortlisted for best overall marketing achievement.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have the opportunity to thank my parents for conceiving, but here are the people I would like to thank:

Matthew Robins, Mourant, whose brainchild EJ was and who sacrificed hundreds of hours in generating top quality content for the site. It’s no exaggeration to say that he’s one of the Island’s best marketeers.

Rod Bryans, Hepburns Insurance, who was a great supporter of EJ and who has mentored me for six years; he really deserves an award.

Chris Lovasz, HSBC, formerly Webreality. Chris did sterling work putting together the technical infrastructure for EJ, and as always a commitment that went way beyond work. Thank you Chris.

Tom Witherington, Webreality. Tom is a coding genius, and he knows it. If you think the blogging engine was good on EJ, take a look at blogmybook.com.

I’d also like to congratulate Sam Watts and Nicola Mauger at Orchid (not sure why their website is still coming soon…) . They deserve the mantle of agency of the year, and we’re grateful to them for the work they’ve done for Webreality.
