Campaign categories include: Industry Targeted, Existing Customer, New Customer Lead Generation, ISV (Independent Software Vendor), and Overall Best Marketing.
Entries were evaluated by a team of judges, which included independent marketing consultants and Microsoft internal marketing experts. Using a point-based, weighted scoring system, entries are judged on the following factors: overall campaign quality, impact to the business and clarity of the message, innovation and creativity used to reach the target audience, and results and effectiveness of the campaign. While there are thousands of Microsoft Dynamics Partners worldwide, these awards were given specifically to qualified North American Partners who submitted entries for consideration by Microsoft.

"We are extremely proud to have received this recognition for the hard work we have put into growing our company through social marketing and blogging," says Anya Ciecierski, marketing manager for CAL Business Solutions. "We realize that accounting software buyers are not waiting for a mailing to arrive on their desk; they are searching online for information and pricing and asking expert opinions. So we want to be found where they are looking."
