Ballhort.com honored at 6th Annual American Business AwardsSM
WEST CHICAGO, IL – Ball Horticultural Company announces that its completely redesigned website at www.ballhort.com won a Stevie Award in the category of Website – Product Advertising in the 2008 American Business Awards.
This year, Stevie Awards were presented in more than 40 categories including Best Overall Company, Best Executive, and Best Corporate Social Responsibility Program. More than 2,600 entries from companies of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted for consideration. In achieving this honor, Ball joins a diverse list of prominent and influential organizations that have won the Stevie Award, including Eastman Kodak Company, FedEx Kinko’s and the Philadelphia Eagles.
The redesigned Ball website at www.ballhort.com launched in March 2008 to provide one convenient location for growers, retailers, landscapers and home gardeners to learn about plants, products and programs available from Ball. It is a portal, organized by audience, that lets site visitors find the best, most up-to-date information that is most relevant to them.
Members of the Awards’ Board of Distinguished Judges & Advisors and their staffs selected Stevie Winners from among several Finalists. Finalists were chosen by business professionals nationwide during preliminary judging in April and May.
“We’re thrilled that our new website has won this prestigious award,” says Diane Hund, Director of Marketing for Ball. “As we redesigned the site over the past year, our goal has been to serve anyone interested in horticulture with excellent information that can be found quickly and easily. The Stevie Award confirms that we’re going about this in a way that stands out among many industries!”
