Honored. Unable to contain their excitement. Motivated to continue raising the benchmark. These were just a few of the feelings around the office when the agency heard its name announced as the 2019 Pinnacle Awards’ OPM/Agency of the Year.
Held during the annual Affiliate Summit, the Pinnacle Awards is the industry’s premier awards ceremony.
The Pinnacle Awards’ OPM/Agency of the Year title is considered the highest honor for an affiliate agency, bestowed to a team who “has gone above and beyond to help achieve the best results for their customers,” according to the Pinnacle Awards website.
“As you can imagine, we were, and are, so excited to win this honor. I am so proud of every single member of our team who has put their heart, soul, sweat and tears into our clients’ programs,” said Founder and CEO Jamie Birch. “We are truly humbled and ready to work even harder in the coming year to make it a repeat!”
Pinnacle Award winners are selected by a panel of judges that includes some of the biggest names in the affiliate landscape.
The excitement of being recognized by industry leaders was palpable across the team, from longtime employees to new hires.
Senior Affiliate Manager Chris Park, who attended the Pinnacle Awards ceremony in New York and accepted the award on the agency’s behalf, found a different way to share his excitement.
He snapped photos of people posing with the award trophy on his journey from the ceremony to the airport before catching his flight back to Coeur d’Alene, where an ecstatic JEBCommerce team was waiting to celebrate with him.
Park has been working in affiliate marketing for nearly two decades but only recently joined the JEBCommerce team. He said the award confirms he made the right choice.
“It’s fantastic to see the industry acknowledge the dedication, professionalism and knowledge that made want to join the JEBCommerce team,” he said.
