We have direct experience on both sides of the award submissions process: on the magazine publishing side and producing submissions for clients.
As a result, we are adept and producing award submissions that meet the needs of the organisations presenting awards.
Some golden rules to follow if this is something falling on your shoulders:
- Read the submission guidance again. Underline the key points (word count, subjects, depth).
- Don’t tell them you’re wonderful. Show them evidence of your wonderfulness. For example, don’t say “we put clients at the heart…”. Instead, say “We have a 94% renewal rate” or a similar piece of factual evidence.
If you stick to those two rules, you’ll beat half of the competition. Sad but true.
