2020AWARDS CALENDAR

ENTRY DEADLINES

Get your diaries open, your best copywriters on standby and your glad-rags dry-cleaned, because your guide to 2020’s biggest and baddest industry awards is here.

How to maximise any awards nominations:

- Shout about your nomination while you can. You may not win, but that shortlist can be enough of an acclaim to tip you into the consideration pot of a potential client.

- Don’t just share the headline news, be sure to share the case study itself and the impact of your work.

- Identify which brands or sectors might have a particular interest in that award worthy work, and pro-actively offer to share your insights with them.

- Does anyone on the illustrious judges list catch your eye? After the big day, drop them a line and let them know why your agency could be their perfect match. Your agency name is fresh in their mind right now!

- And most importantly, your work has a new-found status! Your team are excited and proud. This is the time to encourage the whole team to review their past client relationships and engage in new conversations.

Good luck!
