A "Bronze Telly" is the new addition to Grand Haven-based learning consultancy
Media 1's trophy case.
Following a Silver Telly in 2009, Media 1 was recently informed that they won a Bronze Telly for a short, Flash-based animation featuring services offered by the Education Services division within Hewlett-Packard (HP).
According to Chris Willis, CEO, The Telly Awards are a big deal. For companies in within the industry, "this is very prestigious award," she says. There are thousands of entries from around the world, so it is not just a local award.
Willis adds the impact of the ad goes beyond recognizing the work of their team as it "increases our credibility and highlights the quality of our work. It is a peer stamp of approval."
For Media 1, this award is another symbol of their recovery from a bumpy 2009. Willis outlines how 2010 was a growth year driven by developing new markets, adding more staff and "doing innovative work and getting a lot of buzz." Although they are not actively recruiting, they are always interested in talking with anyone with strong Microsoft SharePoint development skills and an online learning background.
