David Weekley Homes leads with 9 winning projects, ahead of GAF Creative Services (8), Bonavita Design LLC (7), The Word & Brown Companies (6), Litehouse Design Team (6), Protiviti Brand & Creative Studio (5). The full ranking, with each firm's latest winner, is on its own page.

Which clients are named on award-winning sales and self promotion projects?

Clients named on this work include Unimac, A Command Company, Verizon, BevCarts, CannTrust, Case Paper and Metsa Board. The firm that entered the work named the client, so the credit is theirs. Work an in-house team made for its own company does not count as client work.

How do I enter sales and self promotion work in the GDUSA awards?

Entries go through the GDUSA entry platform. Past winners in this category came through the American Graphic Design Awards and the American Inhouse Design Awards. A single entry costs $120 as of October 2026, and packages bring the price per piece down to $400 for ten to twenty entries. Winners who publish get a project page here with full credits, and publication is the paid step.

Self-promotion is a design firm's own brief, with no client to blame, so it tells a buyer more than a portfolio does. The designer has to show a prospective client the firm's range and taste in one object that client would choose to keep, which means leaving most of the portfolio out. The winners here are generous and specific, and they stay on the desk. Leibowitz's Branding A to Z took a full page for turning a vocabulary gap into a glossary clients use, and Design Axl's annual letterpress postcards have become a ritual its clients expect. The best self-promotion designers in the awards are collected here. Open any piece to see it and learn what made it work.
