FMA Communications Honored with Azbee Award for Social Media Excellence!

FMA Communications, a prominent player in the business-to-business journalism space, recently received national recognition at the 2025 Azbee Awards of Excellence, presented by the American Society of Business Publication Editors. The company was awarded a prestigious honorable mention for Social Media Account of the Year, recognizing the outstanding work of The Fabricator’s LinkedIn feed.

This national award highlights The Fabricator’s LinkedIn presence as one of the top three in business-to-business journalism. The recognition underscores the significant role that social media platforms play in driving traffic to digital content in today’s media landscape. Gareth Sleger, Senior Digital Editor, Sara Spring, Senior Social Media and Content Strategist, and Elizabeth Gavin, Senior Digital Marketing Manager, were acknowledged for their contributions to the platform’s success.

Dan Davis, Editor-in-Chief of The Fabricator, emphasized the importance of social media and digital marketing in modern media strategies. “As websites see traffic from search engines shrinking, media companies are more reliant on social media experts and digital marketing efforts to direct people to their web-based content. The Fabricator is lucky to have a solid team helping us with that,” Davis stated.

The Fabricator’s LinkedIn feed, which boasts 31,000 followers, has become a significant channel for engaging with its audience. With over 2 million visitors annually to its website, The Fabricator continues to be a go-to resource for the metal fabricating industry, providing valuable insights and updates on the latest trends and technologies.

This Azbee award recognition reflects the growing importance of digital marketing and social media strategy in reaching and engaging industry professionals. The continued success of The Fabricator’s social media efforts serves as a testament to the power of effective, audience-centered digital communication in today’s rapidly evolving media environment.
