Parsippany-based agency captures multiple 2020 NJ Ad Club “Jersey Awards”

 

SCG Advertising + Public Relations wins pair of firsts, plus a second and third, during 52nd annual event

 

PARSIPPANY, NJ (Nov. 19, 2020) – For the communication professionals at SCG Advertising + Public relations, it’s quite a haul.

 

The ongoing pandemic forced this year’s 52nd annual edition of the NJ Ad Club “Jersey Awards” to be held virtually, but there was still plenty of talent on display across a total of 138 distinct categories. SCG – which was established in 1957 – was recognized with a pair of first-place awards, along with one for second-place and another for third. Specifically, these were:

 

  • First place        “Sell Sheets, Any Number of Colors” (for Michaels of Brooklyn)
  • First place        “Logo, B2B” (for Film Hunterdon)
  • Second place   “Trade, Any Size/ Number of Colors” (for Meridian Aircraft Management)
  • Third place      “Consumer Campaign, 3 or More Elements” (for General Plumbing Supply)

 

“The level of advertising creativity in New Jersey is stunning,” says Tom Marguccio, SCG’s vice president/creative director, and a 2016 Advertising Hall of Fame of New Jersey inductee. “That our agency was recognized to this degree is an honor, and I’m so proud of my colleagues and also the clients who are our partners in these efforts. And, because just a few months ago we lost our long-time president, Glenn Gershaw … well, I think all of us at SCG see these awards as a tribute to his leadership and support.”
