CHICAGO — September 28, 2022 — Bounteous, the digital innovation partner of the world's most ambitious brands, has earned recognition in the 2022 MediaPost’s OMMA Awards, designed to reward the best in Online Media, Marketing and Advertising with 39 categories across two sections: Excellence in Online Advertising and Excellence in Media & Marketing. This is Bounteous’ second consecutive year honored by the OMMA Awards.
Bounteous and Wawa were named a finalist in the Excellence in Online Advertising competition in the Social: Use of Single Platform category for their collaboration on the "Driving Brand Love on Tik Tok" campaign. Wawa needed to enhance their digital engagement in a strategic and imaginative way in order to reach the younger audience.

The journey began with understanding how the platform works and what types of content garner views, and ultimately followers, to drive an increase of over 1,875 percent in TikTok followers in 2021.
“Wawa strives to embrace change and find new ways to delight and connect with our customers,” said Todd Miller, Senior Director of Brand Strategy and Experience at Wawa. “With Bounteous’ help, we were able to strengthen our social following and unleash the creativity of our fans through a growing social media platform, TikTok.” - Todd Miller, Senior Director of Brand Strategy & Experience
