Palm Beach, Fla. – Lombardo took home Best of Show among 16 total awards Thursday night, Feb. 25, in the 2021 American Advertising Awards.

Presented by the American Advertising Federation of Broward and Palm Beach, the event showcased the top advertising and creative professionals of South Florida recognizing the year’s best work in more than 100 categories. The winners were announced via livestream during a virtual gala.

Lombardo received Best of Show for a custom website created for travel client Three Camel Lodge, a five-star luxury eco-lodge in the heart of the Gobi Desert in Mongolia. The website immediately made an impact on past visitors and prospective guests researching and dreaming of the bucket list trips they long to take. The lodge now has a platform and funnels for driving sales on par with the high-end experience of the lodge itself. The site also netted Golf for Consumer Interactive Website, Judges Choice, and Best of Digital.

“We’re honored to have won Best in Show at last night’s Addy Awards,” says Rita Lombardo, Principal and Head of Strategy. “We’re grateful to have such wonderful clients who greenlight great work. And to have such an amazing team.”

The event represents the first of a three-tier step in the advertising industry’s largest and most representative competition in the country. Lombardo will now move on to compete in districts, and the winners will proceed to national finals.
