CONGRATULATIONS AT&T/THE MARKETING ARM!

After presenting the”Expresa tu Pasion” campaign before Portada’s award jury, and defending its marketing strategy, AT&T/The Marketing Arm was named the winner of the Golazo Awards, and winner of the Golazo People’s Choice Award.

During Portada’s Sports Marketing Forum at the Yotel hotel in New York, Inter Milan/Gravity, Audi/FC Bayern Munich, and AT& T/The Marketing Arm defended their campaigns before a panel of three sports marketing experts, in a bid to become the winner of Portada’s Golazo Awards.

The jury included Dan Donnelly, EVP, Managing Director, Publicis Media Sports; Nick Kelly, Senior Director, Sports Marketing, Anheuser-Busch; and Michael Neuman, EVP, Managing Partner, Scout Sports, and Entertainment.

After listening to each of the finalists’ presentations, the jurors questioned the representatives of each campaign in search of the best answers.

The jury exchanged ideas and deliberated for a few minutes, then unanimously decided that the winner of the Golazo Awards is AT&T/The Marketing Arm.

“All three programs were very memorable, and they all had a very compelling and unique objective. But the one we felt was more complete and felt true to the objectives was AT&T”, explained judge Michael Neuman.

“When you truly deliver something that resonates with the consumer based on his believes and also connects with the brand and consumer in a meaningful way it really pays out,” said Marcelo Salinas, Account Director The Marketing Arm.

In addition, on Wednesday, September 6, Portada opened the voting on its website for people to choose their favorite campaign. We shared the campaign videos of each of the three finalists through our social networks, inviting readers and followers to participate in the vote.

With more than 400 votes, AT&T and The Marketing Arm were crowned the winner of the People’s Choice Award.
