This year just continues to get even better with recognition for my first year of work. I must admit, the first 18 months of Ashford Davis have been nothing short of stressful and exciting at the same time. When I first launched my company I was convinced I’d lost my mind – an upstart in the middle of a recession? To add to that, my sister came to me to help her launch Maihar Design – two upstarts in the middle of a recession.
Last night I was announced the winner of the San Antonio chapter of the American Marketing Association’s Marketing Excellence Award for the ‘Under $25,000′ category. My entry was the work I’ve completed for Maihar Design during the course of the first year of operations.
Having been selected a finalist was really all the honor I expected – and I was thrilled with that recognition. To have my name called, though, in a room full of incredible marketing professionals was out-of-this-world exciting.
Thanks so much to the judges who encourage me with the honor, and for all the professionals from whom I continue to learn. The local community and online community is gracious and always willing to share ideas and experiences. It’s from these groups that I continue to educate myself and push forward with achievements.
Here’s to many more years!
