2009 National Sales and Marketing Award Winners
Read what this year’s winners did and get inspired

In an industry where marketing and advertising budgets are often the first to go in hard times, The National Sales and Marketing Award gold winners — sales and marketing professionals; home builders and associates; and sales and marketing councils — took the lemons they were thrown and made some lemon twists in regard to marketing programs that will bring their companies accolades, publicity and ultimately sales.
The creative fires still burn. This year zoo animals were used for branding; an online "matchmaking" service was created for home buyers; and one team reused a slick, urban agricultural structure (no, it's not a barn!). Plus, Baltimore — a market you don't normally see a lot from — netted major recognitions, too.
