Wilmington, NC – Maximum Design & Advertising, Inc., a full-service destination lifestyle marketing firm, was announced as the recipient of three silver awards from The Nationals, the largest competition in the nation for new-home sales and marketing professionals and communities.

Maximum’s ‘Nation’s Next Top Model Home’, held this year at Compass Pointe in Leland, NC,  received recognition in the following categories:

− Best Strategic Sales Promotion - Limited Time
− Best Special Promotion - Limited Time Marketing Promotion
− Best Integrated Internet Marketing Campaign

Now in its 28th year, The NationalsSM pays tribute to superior new-home sales and marketing achievements by individual sales and marketing professionals, homebuilders and associates, and sales and marketing councils. The largest competition in the nation for new-home sales and marketing professionals and communities, The NationalsSM is also the most prestigious, in part because it is national in scope, and categories are effectively linked to real-world marketing strategies and challenges.

As a Silver Award winner, Maximum is now eligible for the highest honor, the Gold Award, in any of its three categories.  The 2010 Gold winners will be announced January 19th at the International Builders’ Show in Las Vegas.
