Rock The House Wins Two CBC CCA Awards in 2012

On March 7th, 2012, CBC Magazine put on a remarkable networking and awards event – The Fifth Annual Connector’s Choice Awards at the The House of Blues. This event is one that all of us at Rock The House look forward to each year. In fact, this year, we had a group of 18 in attendance!

The Rock The House team was excited and humbled to have won both the Best Audio Visual Technical Support Company for the 3rd year in a row as well as Best Entertainment Company. We know that the driving force of the voting was spear-headed by our clients and friends. That fact is what makes this award really special to the entire team.

Rock The House Founder/Owner, Matt Radicelli says:

“After a few years of being nominated for awards like these, its beginning to feel like we’re a boxer defending our titles.  The most amazing part to me, however, is that although we have to do quality work to get nominated, it’s the customers and fans that drive home the awards for us.”

We believe that winning this award three years in a row for Best Technical Support Company is very significant. It says that through consistent growth, we have emerged as one of the most sought after production company in Northeast Ohio due to our creativity and track record of executing magnificent events.

That said, winning the award for Best Entertainment Company is something that is really close to our hearts. After growing beyond the label of being exclusively a “DJ Company”, Entertainment is still a true passion of ours. Winning this award is proof that even though we have evolved as a company, our commitment to producing exciting and fun events remains the same.

Besides our elation at winning two awards at this event, we also felt that this evening itself was expertly put together.  Everyone involved did a fantastic job.  The House of Blues and CBC have grown this event each year by creating something people really look forward to. The food was incredible and was only made better by fantastic service staff members. Sharing the night with all of our partners, customers and friends in one place, makes for a very efficient networking and introducing potential business partnerships, which we in Cleveland really enjoy.  Matt Radicelli says:

“The Connectors Choice Awards is one of the few opportunities we have each year to network with hundreds of our favorite event professionals and partners.  I believe that CBC does a great job producing the event, and House of Blues is the perfect location!”

Once again, we would like to thank everyone who voted for us and we expect this year to be even more exciting.

Rock that House was humbled, surprised and elated to have won Best Audio Visual Technical Support Company for the 2nd year in a row.  Rock The House CEO, Matt Radicelli says:

Not to belittle last year’s awards, but this year the voting system was changed completely and only one vote per email address was allowed… It shows that there are real raving RTH fans as our vendors, and partners take notice of our hard work and dedication to our customers.

What does this award signify about the growth of Rock The House as a company?  It shows that people see our presence and emergence into the event production world and recognize us less as just a DJ company.  People may or may not know it, but RTH was born a DJ company in 1999, and over the past  years have made great strides and grown rapidly in emerging markets such as corporate events and non-traditional audio/visual solutions.

Of course there is also much to say about the party itself.  Everyone involved did a fantastic job.  The House of Blues and CBC created an atmosphere which was exciting and energetic.  The food was incredible and was only made better by fantastic service staff members.  It was convenient  to see so many of our partners, customers and friends in one place, it makes for very efficient networking and introducing potential business partnerships, which we in Cleveland really enjoy.  Matt Radicelli says:

Besides hosting a fantastic awards presentation, it’s always a fantastic networking event chalk full of industry professionals, friends and fans alike.  Regional Awards presentations are always great for that, sort of like a reunion of the area’s top vendors or at least the ones that are committed to excellence.

In his acceptance speach, Matt thanked Rock The House Production Manager, Ben Allison, for his hard-work and dedication to the RTH company culture and focus on offering fantastic A/V options while maintaining excellent customer- service.

What a worth-while experience for all regional event professionals. We anticipate seeing the same friendly faces , and also some newbies at next-year’s award celebration!
