Here are five expert tips:
- Choose Quality Awards – Focus on awards that matter to your target audience, such as those from professional membership bodies or trade magazines.
- Understand the Rules – Call the organisers to clarify deadlines, word counts, and submission guidelines.
- Plan Your Key Messages – Before answering questions, define what you want to communicate to ensure clarity and impact.
- Use Visuals – Enhance your submission with images, infographics, and supporting documents.
- Highlight the Bigger Picture – If your project solves a broader industry problem, emphasise this to make a compelling case for the judges.
And her biggest tip? - don't pay to enter awards that send you an email saying you've been nominated and now need to pay to enter - they are never worth the money you will pay!
