Slingrock Wins Austin Addy Award

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Award-winning Microsoft IT consulting firm Catapult Systems today announced that its interactive division Slingrock won bronze in the 2011 Austin Advertising Federation Addy Awards. The Austin Addys recognize the best work from Austin's growing community of ad agencies and students. The bronze Addy was awarded to Slingrock, formerly known as The Ad Ranch, for its website and B-to-B HTML services.

"Our entry wasn't a huge million dollar website. Instead we took a clever approach which contrasted very well against the big competitors. It was our ideas, attitudes and work combined with humor that helped us bubble up to the top," noted Chris Greta, creative director at Slingrock. "It's easy to throw money at a problem but a lot more fun to throw brains at it instead!"

Slingrock was created in late 2010 when Catapult Systems, a Microsoft IT consulting company, acquired The Ad Ranch, an Austin-based advertising and interactive firm. For more information on Slingrock visit www.slingrock.com
