SmartWork Media, the business-to-business publisher of INVISION, INSTORE and PETS+, has won two Jesse H. Neal Awards. INVISIO’s Nov/Dec 2018 issue won in the prestigious Best Single Issue category (brand revenue of less than $3 million). INSTOREMAG.com won for Best Website (brand revenue of less than $3 million).
The Neal Awards are regarded as one of business-to-business publishing’s most important awards competitions. INSTORE, which is SmartWork Media’s publication for jewelry store owners, has previously won the Neal Awards’ top award for Best Single Issue in both 2011 and 2015.
The winners were announced at an awards ceremony in New York City on March 29, 2019.
“These awards signal a vote of confidence to our marketing partners that they are investing in best-of-class publications and digital content platforms. And to our readers, that they are benefiting from the leading information resources an industry can provide,” says Matthijs Braakman, publisher and chief executive officer of SmartWork Media. “The acknowledgement of INSTOREMAG.COM for Best Website is a particularly wonderful indication that the investments we have made in our digital transformation are gaining momentum.” INSTORE magazine, under Group Editorial Director David Squires’ guidance, debuted the website’s new design in the Fall of 2018.
With the addition of the two most recent Neal Awards, SmartWork Media has earned 135 international awards since 2004, making the company one of the most highly decorated publishers, per title, in the world.
