More than 175 awards were given out at ASBPE’s national awards of excellence banquet June 21 at Boston’s popular Bay Tower Restaurant. The festivities took place as part of the annual editorial conference.
The sold-out banquet congratulated Selling Power (circulation 80,000 or more) and Sales & Marketing Management (circulation less than 80,000) for winning the Magazine of the Year awards in their respective circulation divisions.
The magazines were recognized for their overall excellence in writing and reporting, usefulness to the reader, editorial organization, interaction with readers, and layout and design.
Selling Power also won the award last year, making it the only multiple winner of this award. In fact, this is the publication’s third Magazine of the Year award in five years. (The first was in 1997, when the award was first instituted.)
Vernon Henry, corporate editorial director for Advanstar Communications, was also honored at the banquet for his 40-plus years in newspaper and business publications, during which time he started up five publications and 28 show dailies and developed programs to raise editorial standards and maintain editorial integrity. (More on Henry here.)
ASBPE’s annual awards competition, established 23 years ago, recognizes excellence in editorial and design of business magazines and their associated web sites.
As testament to the importance our industry places on quality editorial and design, ASBPE has for each of the last several years broken its previous record for the number of entries in its annual competition. This year’s entries far exceeded last year’s record pace, increasing from 2,013 to 2,529. The ASBPE awards competition remains the largest of its kind in the business press.
The judges for the contest are business publishing veterans with distinguished service as editors, designers, editorial directors, publishers, consultants, and academicians.
