The Erskine Company began work with Savoir Media on this campaign early this year with the goal of developing a communications strategy to expand its reach among collectors of unique assets – including art, coins, and real estate – and owners of family businesses. "As an avid collector of unique assets, as well as the fourth generation of attorneys to lead the Erskine family firm, I knew I had the expertise and passion to help other collectors and owners of family businesses find ways to provide for their families' financial security and preserve the ownership of their life's work," said Matthew Erskine, principal of The Erskine Company. "Savoir Media developed a campaign that not only communicated my ideas to new people, but also created an opportunity for me to turn my passion into a business. I'm proud they are being recognized for their exceptional work, and for their passion and commitment." The Stevie Awards are hailed as one of the world's premier business awards. More than 1,200 entries, a record for the competition, were submitted this year across 54 categories, including Best Executive, Best Entrepreneur, and Best Community Involvement Program. "It is a tremendous honor to be nominated for this Stevie Award, and we wish to thank The Erskine Company for the opportunity to work on this campaign," said Christine Dunn, President of Savoir Media, a marketing communications firm that leverages its multimedia expertise to assist clients with their internal and external communications. This marks the second year in a row that Savoir Media has been a finalist for the Stevie Awards. In 2009, Dunn won "Communications Campaign of the Year – For-Profit" for her company's work on behalf of Great Moves! pediatric weight management program. She was also a 2009 finalist in the Best Entrepreneur and Best Overall Company of the Year categories for Service Business – Up to 100 Employees - Advertising, Marketing, and Public Relations. Finalists were chosen by business professionals worldwide during preliminary judging. Members of the Awards' Board of Distinguished Judges & Advisors and their staffs will select Stevie Award winners from among the Finalists during final judging. "It is harder than ever to be recognized in the Stevie Awards for Women in Business this year," said Michael Gallagher, president of the Stevie Awards. "Receiving a high score from the judges this year illustrates how well many women in business are doing despite the stiff challenges they face." Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word "crowned," winners will be announced during a gala event at the New York Marriott Marquis in New York City on Friday, November 12, 2010.
