Now Is Gone Wins Axiom Silver Medal
Please excuse a bit of exciting company news…
Now Is Gone won the Silver Medal in the Advertising/Marketing/PR/Event Planning category (#17) of the first annual, 2008 Axiom Business Book Awards! Congratulations to my co-author Brian Solis and Bartleby Press Publisher Jeremy Kay.
The Axiom Awards are run by Inc. and Independent Publisher. More than 400 books were judged for the awards, and a little more than a 100 won medals. The official awards ceremony is in New York on March 10!
Due to ties, our category had the most winners. Beyond Buzz: The Next Generation of Word-of-Mouth Marketing, by Lois Kelly and Word of Mouth Marketing: How Smart Companies Get People Talking, by Andy Sernovitz tied for Gold. We tied with Press Releases Are Not a PR Strategy: An Executive’s Guide to Public Relations, by Linda B. VandeVrede for the Silver. The Science of Spiritual Marketing: Initiation Into Magnetism, by Andrea Adler won Bronze. Congratulations to all of the category winners!
