Los Angeles – H+M Communications (H+M), one of the leading independent marketing and communications agencies in the country and a Holmes Report’s top consumer agencies in North America, has been named a finalist for seven 2018 PR News Agency Elite Awards. Denoting excellence in PR agencies’ key practice areas, each year the Agency Elite Awards celebrate the cream of the agency crop and benchmark the communications and marketing firms that truly stood out for their creativity, strategic expertise and achievement of successful outcomes for clients.
On the strength of the agency’s breakthrough campaign for Universal Pictures’ Despicable Me 3, H+M has been shortlisted among the nation’s best agencies for expertise in Consumer Marketing, Content Marketing, Digital/Social Media, Integrated Communications, Marketing Communications, Marketing to Women, and Multicultural Marketing.
The Agency Elite Awards will be presented September 21 in New York City.
“Strategic programming, creativity, flawless execution and driving measurable business outcomes always have been the cornerstone of the H+M way,” said Etienne Hernandez-Medina, President/CEO of H+M Communications. “We are delighted to not only be able to continue to deliver the unexpected for our client partners but also to be recognized among the nation’s top agencies across more practice areas than any other agency, and particularly the areas our clients value most.”
H+M’s ability to devise and implement an unprecedented partnership between the film and global fitness leader Zumba has been credited for driving Latino moviegoers, and particularly females and Moms, to the theatrical release of DM3, where Hispanics accounted for 26% of the opening weekend audience in the U.S. DM3 went on to break records and become the year’s highest-grossing animated film in the U.S. and fourth highest grossing film worldwide, amassing $1.04 B and establishing Despicable Me as the all-time highest grossing animated franchise.
