MarCom Awards announced winners in the 2016 creative competition for marketing and communication professionals. There were 6,500 entries from throughout the United States, Canada, and 17 other countries. Media personality Shefik has won a total of three awards in the competition for his nationally-syndicated terrestrial radio show, Shefik presents Invocation. Two MarCom Gold Awards were presented to the radio show itself (under the category "Radio: Program"), and one MarCom Platinum Award was presented to the show’s website at invocation.co (under the category "Digital Media: Website - Entertainment"). The MarCom Platinum Award is the highest honor that can be bestowed.
MarCom Awards recognizes outstanding achievement by creative professionals involved in the concept, direction, design, and production of marketing and communication materials and programs. Entries come from corporate marketing and communication departments, advertising agencies, public relations firms, design shops, production companies, and freelancers.
Judges are industry professionals, who look for companies and individuals whose talent exceeds a high standard of excellence and whose work serves as a benchmark for the industry. Winners are selected from over 300 categories in Print, Web, Video, and Strategic Communications.
MarCom Awards is one of the oldest, largest and most prestigious creative competitions in the world. It is sponsored and judged by the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals (AMCP), a 22-year-old international organization, consisting of several thousand creative professionals. As part of its mission, AMCP fosters and supports the efforts of creative professionals who contribute their unique talents to public service and community organizations. Over the past few years, AMCP has given over $200,000 in charitable contributions.
"Thank you to all of the featured guests and production crew members, who have joined me on this profound journey," says Shefik. "I am humbled by this honor, and I look forward to even more life-defining discovery in the continuance of the journey."
For the award presented to the show's website at invocation.co, Shefik is credited as Architect and Developer.
