Prime Access Inc. takes home gold at PhAME Awards, DTC National Awards

(May 7, 2008) – Reinforcing its leadership in multicultural healthcare marketing, Prime Access has been honored with first-place recognition at both the 2008 PhAME Awards and the 2008 DTC National Advertising Awards. Both awards recognized the agency's campaign promoting a cervical cancer vaccine to Latinas.

Awarded for its "Una Menos" campaign on behalf of GARDASIL, Prime Access took home Best Multicultural Advertising awards at both award competitions. This is the second consecutive year Prime Access has won the Best Multicultural Advertising award at the PhAME Awards. 

Founded in 1990, Prime Access specializes in URBAN MAJORITY™ advertising services that help Fortune 500 companies reach African American, Hispanic, gay, and urban youth audiences.

Airing on Spanish television networks and in print, the Spanish-language campaign entitled "Una Menos" encourages Hispanic women to be vaccinated against the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and to receive regular check-ups and screenings.

"This campaign reflects our commitment to setting new standards for reaching Hispanic, African-American, and gay audiences through compelling, innovative marketing," said Howard Buford, founder and president of Prime Access. "It is especially an honor to be recognized for work that has made a difference in the lives of millions of women."

The PhAME Awards recognize outstanding achievement in creativity and strategic innovation in generating results for pharmaceutical marketers. The entries were judged based on the creativity and breakthrough execution of the marketing strategy as well as the results in achieving brand objectives.

Presented during the DTC National Conference ( www.dtcperspectives.com), the DTC National Advertising Awards recognize the year's most outstanding work in direct-to-consumer marketing of pharmaceutical products.

As a gold award-winner, Prime Access will also be profiled in the June 2008 issue of DTC Perspectives Magazine, a pharmaceutical industry magazine dedicated to direct-to-consumer marketing and advertising.
