Top Tips for Entry
We know it’s hard to pull together a unique entry to grab attention and impress an independent judging panel, so we’ve put together top tips to help you craft a successful submission:
1. Stick to the word limit
Help the judges find the information they need quickly and easily. Marks can be deducted for exceeded word counts.
2. Use images and graphs
Using charts and graphs can help reduce the word count and convey your message clearly.
3. Don’t assume the judges know your campaign
Give them context and feed them the content they need to know.
4. Stick to the specific eligibility dates/locations
Judges can only award marks for work and results gained within the eligibility period and location.
5. Report specific results
Report numerical increases and achievements against specific targets to show the success of your campaign.
6. Cover each criteria point
Ensure you’ve covered all areas required so you don’t lose marks unnecessarily.
7. Tailor your submission
If entering multiple categories, make sure your entry is tailored to the specific category at hand.
8. Use the templates provided
Impress the judges with key information and great results rather than just a beautiful deck.
9. Double check your entry
Ensure no crucial sections are missed and all URLs are working before submission.
10. Plan your schedule
Get started early so you can enter on time. Late entries cannot be accepted.
Good luck with your entries – we can’t wait to see what you’ve got!
