RMS awards 2006, 2007, 2008

Figured it might not be bad to have a master list of what the group has won in the last several years. 2006 is before my time, but here is what have for 2008 to get us started...please feel free to add any others that you are aware of the group having won.

2008 MIN Integrated Marketing Awards — Integrated Marketing Team of the Year (company)
2008 MIN Integrated Marketing Awards ­— Chevrolet “Take 3 to Tahoe” for best sweepstakes/contest
2008 MIN Best of the Web Awards — Nissan “Master the Shift” Campaign for best microsite/custom website
2008 PROMO Interactive Marketing Awards — Chevrolet “Take 3 to Tahoe” Promotion for internet-based trial/recruitment

I believe there was recognition in 2008 for Saturn as well?

Other awards:

Most likely to find the newest handbag before Canal Street does: Barrie
Most likely to wear button earrings: Whitney
Marketer with the vocal volume to bring down all productivity at Men's Health: Meg
Fastest typist in the history of the 9th floor: Matt
Deepest knowledge of Martin Brodeur personal history trivia: Mary
Savviest boot shopper: Michelle
Most photogenic meal consumer: Anita
Greatest number of appearances as a donut on national television: Allison

Let the creative thinking continue...

As we all work to figure out what's next, figured it may not be bad to have someplace to serve as a central repository for leads, ideas, etc.

PLEASE NOTE that this is a public space (sorry, I am not savvy enough to figure out the whole access control angle quite yet). As such, there are only a couple rules that I will ask that you abide by:

1) No disparaging Rodale remarks
2) No discussion of separation terms
3) If you win the lottery and admit it here, you've just agreed to share it with the whole group.

Anyway, please use as you see fit. If I run across stuff that I think makes sense for others, I will post it. Feel free to do likewise. If you notice a sale on mac & cheese somewhere in particular, feel free to share it. Should you have questions about contact networks, company reputations, etc., post away.

If you're new to the whole blogging deal...a hint. I'll make a post, and you can add comments. Everyone can see them. If there is a post you want me to make so you can put something in particular out there, just give me a shout at my e-mail address you all have.

Here's to RMS, and our future as FSR (Filthy Stinkin' Rich) wherever we may land. Cheers, Charlie
