AWARD SUBMISSIONS

What is the key to writing a solid award entry?

Successful award entries strike the right balance between providing the information judges are looking for, while at the same time standing out by showcasing something special.

We figure out how to make your submission unique while also being compliant.

What is the process of writing your Award Entry?

We can work on your award entry from start to finish – tell us what award you’re interested in and we’ll take it from there. Or we can edit and polish something you’ve already drafted.

The process includes:

  • Reviewing the award information and category application

  • Initial briefing session (up to 2 hrs) by video call (additional meetings available upon request)

  • Reviewing any marketing materials provided to get to know your business

  • Writing your award submission (any design or imagery will be done by you)

  • Follow-up video call to discuss the first draft, if needed

  • Reasonable number of revisions to get to final version

Please note, the process does not include communicating with the award-granting organisation on your behalf; nor does it include submitting your entry. We ask that you have direct contact with the awarding organisation.

You are responsible for:

  • ensuring you meet the eligibility requirements of the awarding organisation

  • all contact and communication with the awarding organisation – from any initial queries to the final submission process

  • paying the entry fee, if applicable, to the awarding organisation.

Writing about yourself or your business can be tricky. Modesty kicks in and it gets awkward telling people how incredible you are.

At Maple Marketing, we’ll do that for you. We have no trouble telling everyone about all the successful things you’ve done and how great you are.

But it’s more than just an objective perspective – with that comes the experience of knowing what to highlight and how to format information into a compelling structure.

Having an external writer prepare your award submissions provides you with:

  • professional writing and editing skills

  • an objective perspective on your business

  • the dedicated time needed to allocate to the project

  • someone who can coordinate various sources of information and input

We’ll ensure your award submissions are clear, compliant and compelling.

  • “Renata had helped us at Project Seven with our award submissions and it made a huge difference. Renata asked the right questions, made sure our notes and thoughts were collated strategically and the answers to the submission questions conveyed a story of the business. As a result we have been nominated for these awards. Morale in the team is up, clients and referral partners are looking at us differently. It has been great and I think a big boon for the future of the business.”
