The awards were received for Bethpage’s recently launched marketing campaign, “Built to Give You More” – introduced this past February.
Designed to demonstrate how as a credit union, Bethpage is structurally different than banks, and to underscore the credit union difference, “Built to Give You More” ads include ads running on cable television and radio, print ads appearing in newspapers and as outdoor advertising. Animated goldfish, a boy, and balloons all play a part in the series which received a total of six Telly Awards, including three Silver Awards, the highest honor, and three Bronze Awards Nearly 12,000 entries were received this year from across the country.
“The goal of the campaign is to demonstrate that, as a credit union, Bethpage is fundamentally different than a bank,” said Bethpage Federal Credit Union Vice President of Marketing Gerard Schmitt.

This was a true collaboration resulting in award-winning work.”
