Branding, Strategy Firm Recognized for Excellence

Herndon, Virginia, September 22, 2008 - Vizual, a longtime leader in the strategic branding services market, announced today that it had received a variety of prestigious American Graphic Design Awards in a recent competition.

According to firm Principal Jeff Lupisella, the achievement raises the bar of excellence for the firm. "It's the best we've ever done in a single competition," he observes, "and it's especially gratifying that we were recognized for strengths across the board, from identity work and annual reports to advertising campaigns and websites."

Vizual won nine awards in all, including a conference logo for the Council for Opportunity in Education; annual reports for the Council for Advancement and Support of Education and The Real Estate Roundtable; sales collateral for nGen Media Systems, Inc., Terrestar Networks, Inc.; and print advertisements for Nuclear Energy Institute/Smith & Harroff and South49 Solutions' NaturalInsight product. In addition, Vizual was recognized for its website design on behalf of nGen Media Systems and the firm's own online presence.

The awards serve as external confirmation of the company's quality work, notes Lupisella, which has a very positive impact on the firm's staff. "More importantly," he explains, "I believe the awards are a reflection of the communications and marketing savvy of our clients, and the trust they've placed in us to guide them in more strategic directions. It's nice to win design awards, but we never forget that the only reason we're in business is to solve our clients' challenges."
