. . . and the AutoTrader.ca business:
After an intense pitch process, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve won the AutoTrader.ca business. This is a great brand and a great team. We’re pumped to be working with them.

Awards are valuable for a couple of reasons. They’re a nice pat on the back. They let you know how you’re performing in the industry. They get people excited about doing great work. And they let clients know that the quality of their work is at a competitive level.

Same goes for winning new business.

Congrats to all involved.
