An in-house marketing team can take a brand to a new level - this award is looking for the most creative and forward-thinking of in-house teams. Entrants in this category represent the internal marketing powerhouses that have consistently delivered innovative campaigns, effectively communicated brand narratives, and achieved remarkable results.
Judges will evaluate your team based on commercial performance, strategic vision and impact of your campaigns. Make sure to include your team KPIs and paint a picture of how your team works as a unit, perhaps include any challenges you may have faced and how you’ve overcome them. Judges like to read some distinctive examples of marketing work but remember it’s the team performance that you’re being judged on as opposed to a single campaign.
