SEATTLE, October 4, 2005— Envision Response Inc, a Seattle-based full service DRTV ad agency, has won the Best Short Form Housewares award at the Electronic Retailing Association (ERA) Awards Gala in Las Vegas. The event is recognized as the capstone of the annual ERA Conference and Exhibition.

Produced for ITW Space Bag, the spot was the stand out among hundreds of DRTV spots produced in the housewares category. Criteria for nomination included excellence in creative execution, marketing strategy, and success in achieving overall objectives.

“We’ve accomplished something with our Space Bag Spot that no other housewares product has done before,” said Sean K.

Envision Response has been producing ITW/Spacebag’s direct response campaigns since 2003. “Envision Response has been an important strategic marketing partner for us,” says Betty Jamieson-Dunne, Director of Marketing for ITW/Space Bag. “The success of the Space Bag spot has helped maintain our dominant position in the market.”
