Fort Lauderdale based integrated marketing agency Starmark has received six awards, including four gold, at the Advertising Federation of Greater Fort Lauderdale’s ADDY Awards.

“Our ‘Hello Sunny’ campaign continues to build, offering us a platform to reach all of the important market segments that are filling our hotel rooms, raising average room rates and impacting our Broward economy to the tune of over $9 Billion a year,” Nicki Grossman, GFLCVB President & CEO. “Yes, we love these awards, and even more, we love the results.”

Starmark took home three Gold ADDYs for our work with client SeaWorld Orlando. The “Epic Voyage” experiential tour won in the Non-Traditional Advertising Campaign category. SeaWorld Social Media topped the chart in the Single Platform, Consumer – Digital Advertising category with “IceQuest.” The IceQuest game was installed with FanWise™, Starmark’s proprietary social rewards technology, where guests eagerly waited for their chance to send tweets such as: “I love #penguins. Ready for #Antarctica @SeaWorld Orlando.” in order to earn a free turn at the game. Additionally, the “Antarctica Grand Opening Invitation” wowed this year’s judges and took home a Gold ADDY in the Campaign – Collateral Material category.
