\u201cWinning the Hermes Awards for our website redesigns honors the incredible work of our marketing team,\u201d said Karen Zapkowski, marketing specialist at Towne Properties. \u201cHaving the right website technology from the start was critical. We\u2019ve been able to build on that to create sites that reflect our brands and engage potential renters.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
