RefreshedDirect.com crowned Young Spark at DMA awards

Dec. 10, 2010 - PRLog -- Following an extensive selection process, the Direct Mail Association's Young Spark has been awarded to RefreshedDirect.com's Jane Holmes. Holmes beat four other finalists to take the prize at the DMA Scottish Ball earlier this month.

Now in its sixth year, the Young Spark award was launched in memory of John Young, the former MD of WWAV Rapp Collins Edinburgh, who passed away at the age of 38 in 2005. The prize recognises up and coming talent in the Direct Mail industry, and appoints the winner a mentor from among the industry's upper echelons, to provide advice and support for a full year.

Commenting on her win, Holmes said "Winning the DMA Young Spark Award is an amazing honour, and has made all the hard work and late nights worth it. http://www.RefreshedDirect.com launched 10 months ago with a mission to open direct marketing up to the wider market."

"The work that I have done on RefreshedDirect.com, which allows instant data access, efficient planning and budget setting, is something that I am immensely proud of."

The judges were unanimous in their praise and voting, stating Jane's passion, thorough knowledge and excellent unique direct mail solution made the selection this year's decision so easy to agree on.
