What are the Mercury Awards?

The Mercury Awards is a our awards program honoring advertising professionals in

• sales and support professions including
• ad specialists,
• educators
• media types and
• vendors, i.e.
• those who are not recognized by the Hermes, which is a creative competition

How were the winners chosen?

• Only members of the Greater Dayton Advertising Association and Dayton Creative Syndicate may nominate. 
• Ballots were sent to the members asking for their nominations in the categories above. 
• Individuals nominated do not have to be GDAA or DCS members. 
• All nominees in each category will be recognized with the top vote getter winning the Mercury Award for that category. 
• Again, only members can nominate, but those nominated do not have to be members.

Who is Mercury?

Mercury is the Roman god who was the messenger to the gods and is also considered the Roman god of advertising.  He is comparable to the Greek god of advertising, Hermes, whose name is used for our creative competition.
