Exciting news, dear readers! We’re thrilled to announce that OutREACH News has won a platinum MarCom Award for industry-focused series.

The MarCom Awards are one of the largest and most respected creative competitions in the world. This year, there were more than 6,500 entries worldwide.

The contest is judged by independent experts looking for entries that serve as a benchmark for the marketing and communication industry. This little apartment marketing blog won platinum for publishing unique content, including case studies, infographics and videos that can’t be found elsewhere.

Of course, none of this would’ve been possible without you! You’re the reason we publish new articles every week. Your reads, clicks and shares inspire us to find new stories and data as we all work together to make apartment marketing easier, smarter and more rewarding.

This is a sentiment Esther Bonardi, our vice president, echoed in the press release.

“We are honored to receive a platinum MarCom Award for our blog content. Our goal has always been to empower our audience with valuable digital marketing information. This accolade affirms that we are on the right path and making a positive impact.”

See the full press release.

This is only the beginning. At just over one-year old, we’re still learning to walk and gaining momentum. Thank you for being a part of our journey. We hope you’ll stay tuned for what’s coming (including a very helpful post about shifting apartment search trends next week).

P.S. We completely understand that it can be hard to keep up with your reading wish list. If you choose to subscribe to OutREACH News, we’ll email you quarterly with 4-5 top stories. That’s it: one email, every three months, no pressure.
