Why winning awards is good for your business
Have you thought about entering our awards but are not sure on the benefits of doing so? Below we’ve outlined the top five reasons why you should consider entering the awards today.
1. Boosts employee happiness, morale and confidence
What team wouldn’t be happy to know that their long days and hard work has won an award?
Awards recognise and praise the effort a team has put into their work/campaigns - especially us! We want to know your challenges, how you’ve overcome them and the benefits of working as a team to do so.
This achievement can lead to increased happiness due to employees knowing their worth to the company. However, be sure to invite all members to the awards ceremony, you don’t want anyone feeling left out (this will have the opposite effect of what we’re going for).
2. Builds your profile, increases trust and extends your reputation
When clients are looking for a new agency/brand to work with, they may research five, ten or more and struggle with making a final decision.
Having numerous awards on the wall is a symbol of hard work and dedication which can help build trust before the relationship has even started.
For example, would you rather eat at a restaurant with 100 great reviews or none at all?
3. You can add award-winning to your ‘info’
Adding ‘award-winning’ to your company profile shows your clients that you’ve been externally recognised for your services. Everyone can say they’re the best, but awards prove this.
Once you’ve won, remember to add the awards logo to your newsletters, social media channels, website home page and email footers. Pe proud of your award and let everyone know you’ve won!
4. Helps your business grow
Winning awards can actually make your business grow, and in more ways that one.
You can attach more clients, charge more and even attract talent to join your team.
Just as Michelin star restaurants charge more for their services, if your services are award-winning, you could increase your prices to match their worth (if they aren’t already).
You could potentially grow your client base off the back of winning awards with great PR efforts and free marketing. Plus, people are attracted to working for award-winning business as they want to be part of an awesome team; A team who puts the effort in and gets recognised for this!
5. Free marketing
Enough said. Your name, team and award will be plastered all over our website and social media accounts. We’re here to help you succeed.
Even being on our short-list can put you in front of new clients, brand and markets.
