CalExotics and JOPEN have been selected for eight incredible nominations for Storerotica’s 13th Annual SE Awards, some of which include Pleasure Product Company of the Year, Executive of the Year and Marketing Campaign of the Year.
Nominees for the 2019 SE Awards were gathered in part by pre-nomination voting online. Once completed, Storerotica’s editorial staff compiled the votes along with independent polling that was conducted personally with retailers, distributors and manufacturers, to create this final SE Awards ballot.
New to the ballot this year is Sex Educator of the Year. This exciting category features several nominees including Dr. Jill McDevitt, a resident sexologist at CalExotics. Dr. McDevitt works with CalExotics by providing education on sexual health and wellness through online video tutorials, product reviews, how-to tips, and more.
“I dreamed of being a sex educator since I was a young teen. Doing this work is the fulfillment of a life-long passion for me, and I’m grateful every day that I get to do my part to make the world a little more knowledgeable, introspective, and compassionate about sexuality. Being nominated for the Sex Educator of the Year award is a thrill and an honor,” says Dr. McDevitt, when asked what being nominated means to her.
Along with being a nominee for Sex Educator of the Year, Dr. McDevitt has the honor of hosting this year’s SE awards. Winners are announced during the awards, held in conjunction with the Adult Novelty Manufacturers Expo (ANME) in Burbank, California on July 16, 2019.
“STOREROTICA is excited to announce our final nominees for this year’s SE Awards,” says SE’s Marketing & PR Director, Kristofer Kay. “Each brand and storefront represents outstanding achievement within the adult retail community, and we are once again honored to be the publication that recognizes them.”
