07.03.2010 - G75 Media wins national award!
There was good news for G75 Media at the annual Freelancer of the Year awards, which took place in London’s Covent Garden last Thursday. Neil Cumins, the founder of G75 Media, received a special award for outstanding work in the field of editorial writing.
The award was presented to Neil by Mike Berry, the MD of event organisers Xchangeteam.com, and also by Bob Wailling, the MD of communications specialists Beetroot. Neil was commemorated for his work in assembling a twice-yearly customer newsletter on behalf of opticians group Sight Care, which involved writing editorial on behalf of over 30 different opticians practices around the UK, all within a two-week timeframe.
Speaking from the stage immediately after his achievement was announced, Neil had this to say: "To be up here, in front of all these hugely talented people, is quite incredible. It's taken a great deal of hard work to get established as a copywriter, but tonight might just be the moment when G75 Media really comes of age."
The Freelancer of the Year awards are held annually to celebrate the cream of the UK's freelance community. Now into their seventh year, each ceremony has been bigger and more high-profile than its predecessors, and this year's event was attended by 100 of the UK's leading media executives, freelancers and industry insiders. G75 Media's commendation in the Editorial section was particularly impressive considering that this was by far the largest of the six categories, with a total of 11 shortlisted finalists picked from thousands of entries over the last few months.
