Categories

The Marketer of the Year steering group strive to make entry and judging as transparent and simple as possible for each of the categories in this competition. This year they have worked to expand on the guidelines and release judging criteria prior to the judging day - in order to give agencies more of an insight into the entry, finals day and judging process. Each category now has a defined set of guidelines and judging criteria.

For ALL categories:

  • Simple entry process – no complex preparation needed – just turn up for the live finals day with your creative and analytical brains switched on!
  • Read the entry guidelines and judging criteria for your category so you know what the judges are looking for
  • Do your best on the day then come along to the awards ceremony to see the results announced alongside the Communications and Sales awards.
