Fraley Returns to Judge Best in Construction Marketing, Editorial

by

Brian M. Fraley, owner of Fraley Construction Marketing, will once again serve as a judge for the Construction Media Alliance (CMA) Annual Editorial & Marketing Awards. Trade publications, manufacturers, and marketing agencies and consultants will submit their best work from 2017.

Categories for Editorial will include: Best Editorial Column, Best Single Issue, Best Website, Best Feature, Best Series, and the Tudor Van Hampton Award for Editorial Excellence. Marketing categories will cover Best Press Kit, Best Ad, Best Public & Media Relations Campaign, Best Video, Best Use of Social Media, and Best Content Marketing.

“I’m thrilled to serve as a judge again this year,” said Fraley. “It’s always a great opportunity to see such inspiring work in the construction marketing and editorial space.”

This year’s competition includes a new award to memorialize the late Tudor Van Hampton, former managing editor for ENR, whom passed away in 2017 at age 39. It will require participating construction editors to provide 5 to 10 writing samples that showcase their overall editorial style and voice, and exhibit thought leadership aimed at affecting some change or greater understanding in the industry.

Fraley said: “I’m thrilled to see the creation of the Tudor Van Hampton Award for Editorial Excellence to honor a best-in-class construction editor that left us too soon. It will surely have special meaning and serve as inspiration for many deserving editors.”

The Construction Media Alliance is a volunteer-led, volunteer-based association for construction industry editors, journalists, writers, publishers, PR representatives, marketing communications professionals, social media pros and everyone in between.

We knew Fraley Construction Marketing had some larger clients and we are much smaller in terms of revenue and operations. However, Brian welcomed us as a client and we’ve never felt any less important than the big companies. We are good at delivering our construction services, but not so much with marketing them.  Brian’s advice is always sound and from the heart.  We consider him an equal part of our operation.

The services Fraley Construction Marketing provided to us were top notch.  We’ve hired photographers across the country to obtain photos of our equipment in use on various job sites, but Brian’s talent shined in this particular project.  He went above and beyond, was very informative and did a great job scheduling and coordinating with the jobsite.  We are very happy with the quality of his photos!  We would be more than willing to use his services again in the future.
