The judges said
Launching a new agency is challenging at the best of times; doing so in the harsh economic climate of the winter of 2011 was very tough indeed. So the judges were particularly impressed with the way Status Digital managed its launch, keeping its retained clients and recruiting new ones, and hitting all its financial targets in the process.
