TWO NZ SHOPS SHARED GOLD, Silver and Bronze at the Australasian Promotional Marketing Association Star Awards last week in Sydney.



Parnell-based Apollo Marketing won two Golds – Most Innovative Idea for the Kleenex Cottonelle Couture Challenge and Best Sponsorship for the same campaign (which used 25,000 metres of toilet paper to create 22 dresses).



Newmarket-based AmbientX won a Silver in Best Activity Generating Brand Awareness and a Bronze in Best Experiential Campaign – both for Campbell’s Velish Soup Kitchen.



Sydney-based Momentum won two Bronzes for Best Sponsorship Campaign and Best Digital Campaign for Sanitarium NZ’s Weet-bix Power Plays.



The Grand Prix was won by Wunderman Australia for Microsoft’s TenGrandisBuriedHere.com. Sydney Social Media Club co-founder Doug Chapman (of digital agency Amnesia) received the Lifetime Achievement Award.
