Local marketing communications agency earns 2017 MarCom Awards
Cooper Hong Inc., a brand development and public relations firm, has earned three 2017 MarCom Awards for marketing communications projects developed during the past year.
On behalf of its clients at Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas, a leading manufacturer of construction equipment and forklifts for the North American market, CHI received a Gold MarCom Award for its work on a full-line product poster that folds down to pocket size, and a MarCom Honorable Mention for a Hyundai "bellyband ad."
CHI also earned an Honorable Mention for its graphic design work on the website for Ironworks LLC, a heavy-equipment cost management software suite that will give the contractors who use it a clear advantage over those who don't.
"Making a positive difference for our clients, especially in terms of business results, is what energizes us at CHI," said Jane Cooper, president of Cooper Hong Inc. "But we also appreciate receiving recognition from our industry peers. Winning three MarCom awards is a testament to the creative and strategic talent of our team here at CHI.
