The SEO Blog with attitude
entries comments

Last night I attended the B2B Marketing Awards in London, and it was an awesome night. All dressed up like cindafuckinrella =) The agency I work for, Base One, was nominated in quite a few categories and won “B2B Agency of the Year”. And as Julie mentioned I was nominated and WON “B2B Newcomer of the Year“. I was going to be all modest and not blow my own trumpet, but heck sod it, I’m estatic, and also possibly a little drunk still ;)

The awards were amazing and took place in The Brewery in London (yeah I know, how English, an award cermony in a brewery), but it was a truly amazing venue. It felt like the Oscars. Round tables, stage and the whole shhhbang.

I thought I would share some photos with you all (mostly of me looking very excited):

Me, nearly crying when they called out my name (and they pronounced my name right!!)

Accepting the Award - Looking absolutely terrified (and slightly drunk)

Newcomer of the Year or Crack head of the year? Very happy though!

Bring on the champagne!

Champagne + Awards = Happy faces!

Now this might be a little cheesy, but I would really like to thank some people (and didn’t get to do it on the night). I would really like to thank one of my clients, Paul Lees (from Powwownow) for getting me really “in to” SEO when I first started. He kept on asking questions I couldn’t answer lol, and managed to inspire me to learn more. Might sounds weird but that’s how this crazy obsession with my job all started :) I would also like to thank my excellent MD, Richard Bush, who always believes in me and listens to all my crazy ideas and lets me talk “AT” him for hours. Richard, you are a true inspiration and an excellent motivater!

I would also like to thank the fantastic people I work with at Base One (in particularly John Bottom who wrote my wicked entry for the nomination). And lastly, but by no means least, I would like to thank all the SEO-Chicks, our readers and all the wonderful people in the SEO industry!!

SEO ROCKS!

  8. If there’s any way that you can use your celebrity to get Adam Ant or Gary Numan to call me, please feel free to do so.

  9. I wonder if the awards committee Googled all of the nominees as a part of their judgement?

    If they did, I seriously doubt they found anything much out about any of the others, and many thousands of pages mentioning Lisa Dit.
