This year, we honor the local businesses and organizations making an impact through leadership, innovation and service. From accounting to Web development, you’ll find these winners have shown continued excellence from the conference room to the community. While plenty of research went into choosing this field, we also asked our readers to weigh in with their votes, so be sure and check out the 25 choices as voted in our online poll.

ADVERTISING

Idea Lab
Good ideas aren't just like turning on a light switch. It takes hard work and innovative thinking to construct advertising campaigns that stand out from the crowd.
* Idea Lab Marketing, a privately held corporation based in Moorestown, has been providing full-service marketing and communications services for more than 16 years. Launched by CEO Jack Paolin, Idea Lab uses an arsenal of “proven, yet creative” methods to market businesses, products and services, through integrated advertising, graphic design, interactive marketing, social media and public relations promotions.
* In 1996, when Paolin sold his former agency, Paolin & Sweeney Advertising & Public Relations, it was one of New Jersey’s 10 largest agencies. Later that year, he founded Idea Lab Marketing and has utilized more than 30 years of experience and knowledge in marketing and advertising to bring South Jersey businesses his unique brand of sharp and creative work.
* Executive Vice President and Creative Director Jay Winkler, a partner since 2003, brings with him more than 20 years of experience and a career that is peppered with award-winning campaigns and compelling websites for a diverse roster of clients.
* Idea Lab specializes in creating functional marketing tools utilizing the latest technology—from social media and SEO to multimedia Web development and e-commerce. You may have seen some of the Lab's work around town, through integrated campaigns for Camden County College, UMDNJ, or print advertisements for local businesses.

ARCHITECTURE

Regan Young England Butera
It’s a business with a catchy name and even more memorable work. RYEBREAD, a.k.a. Regan Young England Butera: Referendums, Engineering, Architecture, Design, is a professional architecture corporation based in Mount Holly. Principals Regan Young, Scott England and Angelo P. Butera, and project managers Roy Ruby and Patrick Farmer, are licensed architects, planners and interior designers recognized for their knowledge of code, superior construction and “context-sensitive design.”
* The RYEBREAD mission is to utilize Creativity, Care, and Collaboration to make South Jersey a better place to live, work and learn. By helping our clients invest in their buildings, we can make them more healthy, efficient and productive,” says Young.
* The company’s commitment to sustainable design has earned them accolades for many years. In fact, Butera, director of sustainability, has been recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council as a LEED Accredited Professional since 2008.
* The firm’s recent projects include several schools powered by geothermal energy. A recent library addition at Pemberton’s Fort Dix Elementary School features the use of light shelves, pitched metal “cool roofing” and occupancy sensing to control light during the day, which prevents unnecessary energy costs. At Eastampton Community School, green strategies and consolidation helped save the township money through sustainable design. Young calls it a “functional and artistic success,” which is clear to see inside the colorful library, where a 16-foot geodesic dome serves as a centerpiece to students’ reading activities.
* What is the future for RYEBREAD? “If we look beyond current obstacles, I see incredible potential waiting to be fully realized,” Young says. “Our historic downtowns’ density, diversity and historic fabric are assets, not liabilities. Our buildings and thoroughfares can be designed for greater livability, while respecting both our past and present.”

BANK – COMMERCIAL LENDING

Susquehanna Bank
In addition to all the “customary commercial lending products,” Susquehanna Bank prides itself in offering sound financial guidance when building a lending relationship. With more than 3,300 employees and 260 branches across the region, Susquehanna Bank takes a community approach to banking—and lending.
* “We have teams of people dedicated to commercial lending in the various communities we serve. ... The lenders in each community live there and have personal insight into the local economy and the needs of local businesses,” says Stephen Trapnell, vice president and director of communication strategies.
* South Jersey has two regional presidents: Kathie Stone in Burlington and Camden counties and Lou Petrini in Gloucester County. Each brings more than 30 years of experience in banking and financial services.
* "Our success is built on credibility, referrals and responsiveness. All banks can lend money; it’s how you service the client during and after the transaction is completed that forms your reputation,” explains Trapnell. Susquehanna Bank offers SBA lending, cash management and personal banking services, while a specialized group can accommodate larger financial needs, providing financing of $100 million or more.
* And it doesn’t end there. A unique benefit for Susquehanna customers: access to an online Business Resource Center that offers feedback and basic guidance on topics that matter to small businesses. There you can find information on a variety of topics like accounting, communications or online security.

EDUCATION

Rowan University
When it comes to earning a degree, there are few institutions with more options than Rowan University. Whether seeking to pursue an undergraduate degree on the Glassboro campus, or pursuing an MBA through the College of Graduate & Continuing Education, Rowan University has developed a well-rounded curriculum to accommodate its roughly 12,000 students.
* From its roots as a teaching college in 1923, Rowan has grown to include a nationally ranked engineering school; the $9.3 million South Jersey Technology Park, where entrepreneurs and scientists can “incubate” businesses and ideas; and the recently opened Cooper Medical School of Rowan University at the Camden-based campus.
* Rowan’s business programs—graduate, undergraduate and online—are accredited by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business and include specializations in entrepreneurship, finance, human resources management, management, management information systems and business marketing. Even with all these options, obtaining that next degree can be difficult—especially with a full-time job. That’s why the graduate school accounts for both traditional and non-traditional students, with 50 percent of classes scheduled in the evening. For potential students who are wired in, but on the go, there’s the Online Master of Business Administration program: an accelerated degree that preps students to “assume managerial positions in commercial, not-for-profit, and governmental organizations” through e-learning materials like chat room discussions, online boards and digital course content.

FINANCIAL SERVICES

Masso Torrence Wealth Management, Inc.
This independent boutique firm, headquartered in Marlton, focuses on corporate retirement plans and comprehensive financial planning for several doctors, dentists and attorneys, but also for small business owners. It’s a niche market that has produced overwhelmingly positive results for the company. “By advising a very select group of similar clients, we are able to become experts at providing solutions to the unique challenges and opportunities they face,” says Marketing Manager Joann English.
* In 2013, the company will look to expand their business and plans to put a proactive outreach program in place, designed to better educate plan participants on the importance of saving for retirement properly by making sound financial decisions, according to English. “Our goal is to become a lifetime resource to those who have entrusted us with their financial well-being.”

INSURANCE – RISK MANAGEMENT

Conner, Strong & Buckelew
With local offices in New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania, this highly respected insurance, risk management and employee benefits brokerage and consulting firm dates back to 1959 and also houses a location in Florida, making it one of the largest insurance brokerages in the United States. They count aviation, construction, education, health care and real estate as some of their specialty practices, with approximately 300 professionals serving clients here and abroad.
* The key to Conner, Strong & Buckelew’s success is a direct result of working with their clients to customize programs based on organizational desires that are proven to demonstrate bottom-line growth. With a skilled team well-versed in both the insurance world as well as the business world, it’s no wonder why so many trust the firm with helping them achieve their goals, both short and long term.

MARKETING AGENCY

Panda Concepts
When Stephanie Brill first started Voorhees-based Panda Concepts in 2009, one of her first clients was a woman who was also starting her own business and looking to create a logo, business cards, website and brochures. Who better to understand the importance of a strong identity right at the launch of a startup than someone in the same situation?
* “Creating a brand for a new or existing company is interesting to me because the brand is visually telling the client’s story and creating a corporate image that will hopefully make an impact forever,” Brill says. “In this case, it visually brought her dream to life.”
* Though she is the only full-time employee, clients wouldn’t know it. Brill works with a group of part-time designers and Web developers along with copywriters and freelancers to form the team behind this marketing design company, which specializes in branding, graphic design and Internet marketing.
* With the evolution of technology, Panda Concepts is working to cater toward “touch-centric” devices such as smartphones and tablets, and the firm is also receiving much more interactive marketing projects that have come a long way from the simple PDF.
* In order to design a product people would be proud to show off, Brill says a personal relationship is a must to understand what the client’s priorities are. By building a local customer base of small business and corporate clients, as well as receiving a stream of referrals, Panda Concepts’ reputation is spreading beyond South Jersey. Clients range from Virtua to Illinois-based Jones Lang LaSalle.

MEETINGS – GOLF COURSE

Trump National Golf Club
Built atop of a former ski resort and boasting picturesque views of the Philadelphia skyline, Trump National Golf Club is a distinctly different place to host your next meeting. World-renowned golf course architect Tom Fazio designed the private, 18-hole golf course to be challenging, beautiful and striking across 365 wooded acres, with two putting greens and practice areas.
* Purchased in 2009 by Donald J. Trump, the club formerly known as the Pine Hill Golf Club is now a luxury resort capable of hosting corporate outings, business meetings, nonprofit dinners, award banquets accommodating up to 300 people, fundraisers and more. The private club’s expert staff can guide your company through the process to host your next event or golf outing, with a pre-event consultation to plan every detail.
* After a long day of putting, visit the 43,000 square foot clubhouse to impress your clients or guests with panoramic views of the course and surrounding area, and some of Camden County’s best fireside dining in some of the many dining spaces.

REAL ESTATE – MANAGEMENT

Brandywine Realty Trust
The development industry can be a crowded place sometimes, which is why the folks at Brandywine have worked since its inception in 1986 to set itself apart from the pack. And they’ve succeeded thanks to a willingness to take risks and target future trends, producing high-end results in office and mixed use properties. In recent times, those results have come way of Brandywine Environments, an eco-friendly branch of the company that puts an emphasis on alternative energies and other environmentally friendly practices.
* Brandywine touts its mission as one that “influences a corporate culture that fosters the potential for excellence in every employee.” That approach to business has seen work on properties not only in the Central and South Jersey areas, but as far south as Texas and westward to California.

WEB DEVELOPMENT

Manna Design Works
One of the biggest transformations going on in South Jersey is the creation of Rowan Boulevard in Glassboro. When the borough needed a new website that would link the developments together for residents, visitors, business owners and potential tenants alike, they turned to Manna Design Works.
* “As the marketing firm for the borough, we were part of a very talented team that had to develop a site (DowntownGlassboro.com) for multiple types of users,” says Robert Harrington, president of Manna Design Works. “Our goal with the site is to develop it in such a way that each target audience feels like they’re in a site speaking just to them.”
* Launched in 2002, Manna Design Works is a full-service Web, graphic design and creative marketing firm based in Glassboro, a company that is always looking for the “delicate balance” between what a client wants and what the professional feels they need. Harrington says while a client may come in thinking they need a new website, it could just be a robust e-mail marketing campaign or some other form of advertising they need.
* “We’re not designing to win awards; we don’t recommend solutions because it’s the latest idea on the market,” Harrington says. “We’re working to help our clients achieve their goals.”
