Salem, MA (Nov. 15, 2010)—King Fish Media, the leading provider of custom media marketing solutions, has been recognized for excellence by the Custom Content Council with two Pearl Awards, and by the International Davey Awards with three Davey Awards. King Fish was recognized with a Silver Pearl Award in the Best Proof of ROI category for its work for Zappos, the online shoe and apparel retailer. King Fish launched a series of print and online catalogs for Zappos in 2009, and the publications have produced significant, measurable results.

In addition, King Fish was awarded a Gold Pearl Award in the Best eNewsletter category for everyday, a bi-weekly online publication for BBVA Compass.

The Pearl Awards honor outstanding achievement in design, digital implementations, editorial and strategic initiatives for B2B and consumer custom publications This year’s Pearl Award winners were announced at a ceremony in New York City on November 11.

King Fish also won silver Davey Awards in three categories in the International Davey Awards, a competition that recognizes the achievements of smaller agencies. The Daveys celebrated King Fish’s work for David’s Bridal in the Catalog Design category, for Zappos in the Marketing Effectiveness category, and for Zappos in the Catalog Design category. The awards were presented in New York City on October 31.

“We consistently provide our clients with outstanding content and clear, measurable results that show the value of custom media in reaching customers and driving sales,” said Cam Brown, President, King Fish Media. “While we are humbled to again have our hard work and creativity validated by recognition from the Custom Content Council and the Davey Awards, the more important beneficiary of these recognitions are King Fish clients who partner with us to develop cost effective marketing solutions.”

The Pearl Awards were launched in 2004 to herald the commitment to excellence and the growing success of custom publishing. Custom publishers—small and large; B2B and B2C; representing clients in a wide range of industries; and producing magazines, newsletters and web publications—all participate in the awards, which set the standard for the industry.

The International Davey Awards are exclusively for the "Davids" of creativity. David defeated the giant Goliath with a big idea and a little rock—the sort of thing small firms do each year. The annual International Davey Awards honors the achievements of the "Creative Davids" who derive their strength from big ideas, rather than stratospheric budgets. .
