"This really is a tremendous achievement," said Mike Kelly, publisher. "It's not unusual to see titles like Fortune, BusinessWeek, and Inc. picking up more than one award, but for an up-and-coming publishing house like us to win five this year says a great deal about the quality of writing we produce."

A silver Eddie was awarded for "Come On In," on how hospitality companies can design successful loyalty programs around customer desires. Written by RedCoat editor Amanda Gaines, it won for best single article in the food service/hotel category.

Several other RedCoat articles won Eddies. The cover story of Fall 2008 issue of Energy Today won a gold award in the energy business-to-business category. The story, "State of the Art," written by Jill Rose, describes Boulder, Colorado's smart grid project. Rose is editor-in-chief of Welcome, Energy Today, American Executive, Inside Healthcare, and Northeast Executive.

"Green Spree," the cover story of Retail Merchandiser's September/October 2008 issue, by Michael Sharkey, former editor-in-chief, won the gold award in the retail category. The article looked at the sustainability efforts of seven leading-edge retailers. In addition, the September/October issue of the magazine won a bronze award for best full issue in the retail category.

The cover story of the August 2008 issue of American Executive was an article on social media entitled "Social Status," by Jill Rose. It won a silver for best single article in the design/advertising/marketing category for B2B magazines.
