Awards
Award Winning Websites & Recent Honors
As an award-winning marketing agency, we build websites, videos, and campaigns for organizations we believe in. Awards are nice, but impact matters more. That’s why we only share recent recognition—and why our most meaningful honor celebrates our work in the community.
Why we list only recent awards
We’re proud of every project we’ve ever launched, but our focus is on what’s next. Sharing only recent awards keeps us moving forward—and reminds us that our best work is always still ahead.
COMMUNITY FIRST
2024 Spirit of Small Business
The Sycamore Chamber of Commerce 2024 Spirit of Small Business Award means the most to us. We’re proud of the outcomes we deliver for clients, and we’re equally committed to raising up our local community through service, mentorship, and pro bono work.
This recognition affirms that both priorities matter and have impacted the community where we live and work.
NATIONAL RECOGNITION
2025 Gold Telly Award
Portrait of a Spartan Video Series, Sycamore Community School District 427
Category:
Non-Broadcast Video Series Campaign – Educational Institutions
Developed in partnership with Green Closet Creative, Bear & Camera (Milo Barsanti-Gonzalez), and the District’s Communications team, this series brought to life the district’s graduate profile across all seven schools. Real classrooms. Real moments. The work highlighted the people who make “Spartan” a lived identity—and it resonated well beyond our community.

What “award winning” means here
Awards validate craft, but our bar is higher: conversions, accessibility, Core Web Vitals, and the kind of build your team can actually maintain. If it looks great, loads fast, and drives the right actions, it’s doing its job.
