Congratulations to

The AIM Award is a parallel program to IFCA's traditional Annual Awards Competition.

 

WFG created the "A Time for Heroes" campaign to promote their annual Convention of Champions.

The campaign included printed pieces, premiums, videos, a website and live costumed characters.
