By Adam Kleinberg
Traction has been named a finalist for the BMA Awards in the Agency of the Year (under $25M) category!
The BMA (Business Marketing Association) will announce the winner at a gala event in Chicago on June 1!
In addition to that, they have already named winners in two other categories and Traction picked up the gold for our "Lenovo: Users Happen" campaign for Best Integrated Communications Program and Best Video Production!
Congratulations to our awesome clients at Lenovo and to the team at Traction. Also, big shoutouts to our media partner on this account, Levelwing, and production partner, Criminal. Couldn't have done it without such a great team!
