Marketing communications agency nominated for three top industry awards

Following its success at hitting the £1m mark in under ten months, acceleris marketing communications has been nominated for two major industry awards in three categories. Our work with the National Federation of ALMOs (NFA) has been shortlisted in the Public Sector categories of both the 2007 PR Week Awards and the CIPR Pride Awards. Meanwhile, our campaign on behalf of Motors.co.uk has also been nominated for the Best Use of Media Relations category at the CIPR awards.

The agency’s work for Motors.co.uk has, since its launch in April this year, seen the website attract more than half a million unique visitors a month. The agency’s campaign for the NFA includes re-branding, corporate communications and government affairs.

The agency, with headquarters in Harrogate, Yorkshire and shortly to open in Manchester, provides clients with an integrated portfolio of communications services, including public relations, media relations, digital marketing, media buying and planning, web development, event management and graphic design and production.

acceleris Director Donna Mullin said

“it is a testament to our hard work and talent to be nominated for these awards, especially from such a young agency. We pride ourselves on our relationships with our clients and this is great news not only for us but for them as well.

We have big plans for acceleris as an agency and being shortlisted for 3 awards in just 10 months is a great start.”

The agency numbers some well known brands and leading business names on its 60-strong client list, including  brewers Theakstons; Silentnight; the National Federation of ALMOs, the organisation that manages 1 million council houses around the country; the Great Yorkshire Show; law firm Walker Morris; technology company Comtech M2M; Smart & Cook, the UK’s second largest insurance broker; motors.co.uk , the leading on-line motors retailer; Lakeland Ltd; Healthier Weight, the leading weight loss programme; and Citu, the pioneering urban regeneration property developers.
