In 2014, the Clairemont team punched French fries, flapped the chicken dance in the middle of a grocery store and raced mint green bicycles around a hotel lobby. We also crafted and executed a full slate of client projects that increased sales, secured customers, boosted revenue and expanded market share —all for our beloved clients.

On September 23, 2015, Clairemont had the opportunity to celebrate our 2014 campaigns at the annual Sir Walter Raleigh Awards Banquet hosted by the Raleigh Public Relations Society (RPRS). Behind the sheen of a PR accolade lies countless hours of creative brainstorming and meticulous research backed by an unstoppable commitment to flawless execution. And at Clairemont, our work is also our joy; so an award carries heaps of excitement for our team as we celebrate the success that ultimately belongs to our clients. Last year was a thrilling ride, and we are delighted and privileged to have been in the driver’s seat.

This year, we had the honor of receiving the following awards from the RPRS:

• Best in Division in Total Campaign for: “LEKKER Bikes U.S. Rolls into America”
