CRAFTING A WINNING ENTRY
The submission matters. All entries are judged solely on the quality of the information and assets provided. Writing award entries doesn't have to be difficult or time-consuming, but does require focus and planning. Here are some tips to create a winning submission

Choose the right category
Take time to carefully review the categories and criteria. Select the one that best aligns with your work or product.

Edit and review
‍Before submitting your entry, carefully review your responses and any visuals or supporting materials, especially if an agency completed the entry on your behalf.

Be intentional and concise
Ensure each answer is providing new information for judges to review. Consider using headlines or bullets to make copy easier to read.

Utilize visual support
Photos, videos, and examples of campaigns or marketing materials can help to enhance your submission and provide judges with a better understanding of your work.

Highlight impact and results
‍Include data or metrics that demonstrate the impact or success of your work or product and quantify its effectiveness.

Testimonials or social proof
Third-party recognition from customers, influencers, or industry experts can provide additional validation and credibility for your entry.
