Boston, Massachusetts - June, 2009 - The Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS) Boston Chapter awarded Walsh Brothers, Incorporated second place in the Website category at the annual Marketing Communications Awards gala.

This year's SMPS Recognizing Outstanding Communication (ROC) awards drew a large number of highly competitive entries. Walsh Brothers' website award entry was up against several different firms, ranging from architectural to web design firms. Despite the elevated level of competition, Walsh Brothers' newly designed website managed to score high marks, earning comments from the panel of judges that included: "Excellent website, culture was portrayed well throughout; project section well-organized and very cohesive; theme consistent throughout." The panel of judges, which featured top level representatives from Massport and Harvard University, were most impressed by the expressive and insightful copy in addition to the beautiful photography. The primary objective in updating the Walsh Brothers website was to carry forward the brand and message threads created within the previously completed corporate brochure. This SMPS award for Walsh Brothers comes on the heels of a prestigious 2008 National SMPS Marketing Communication Award for Walsh Brothers' corporate brochure. The website chronicles Walsh Brothers' 108 years of providing service excellence to esteemed and iconic institutions throughout the city.
