The National American Advertising Awards Program (formerly the ADDY® Awards) is the advertising industry’s largest and most representative creative competition, recognizing creative excellence in the art of advertising across all media.
QA Graphics’ entry, The MacNeil Carwash configurator, was awarded a gold award in the digital advertising category—the top honor for the category. MacNeil worked with QA Graphics to develop an interactive sales application to help customers fully visualize their carwash conveyor layout and provide them with instant feedback to simplify the decision-making process. The MacNeil sales team can create an instant report with contact information, equipment ordered, and an image of the preferred layout to expedite the quoting process.
