PostcardMania CEO Presented Award for 2008 BusinessWoman of the Year
Joy Gendusa was among the list of high-powered business women crowned a winner in the 2008 Business Woman of the Year Awards.
Clearwater, FL, September 29, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The Tampa Bay Business Journal 2008 BusinessWoman of the Year award winners were announced at a black-tie gala last Friday night at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Joy Gendusa, Founder and CEO of PostcardMania, was announced as the winner of the Business Services category by an independent panel of judges. Tampa Bay Business Journal Publisher Bridgette Mill and Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio hosted the gala.
Gendusa, a sought-after marketing expert, bootstrapped her way to success in the spirit of true entrepreneurialism, creating PostcardMania in June of 1998 and quickly becoming the fastest growing direct mail postcard marketing firm in the nation, recognized nationally by Inc Magazine by 2005.
But having PostcardMania handle the direct mailing needs of 31,000-plus customers in over 350 industries nationwide wasn’t enough for Gendusa. She decided to set up a division within her company with the sole purpose of handling pro-bono work for non-profit organizations — the only stipulation being that these organizations have the purpose of assisting mankind to improve his lot and make the world a better place. In sync with this, PostcardMania now donates the design, printing and mailing services of hundreds of thousands of direct mail postcards for non-profit charities all over the country.
Upon receipt of her award, a surprised Gendusa told the crowd how thankful she was to be in a country where women had so many opportunities and freedoms available to them.
