There are two primary challenges with general session award presentations. First, they compete with the main event. Most attendees invest in attending general sessions for the keynote or primary attraction. When too much time is spent on association business or awards, it diminishes the attendee value proposition. And secondly, they may lack relevance. The people who care the most about award recipients are their coworkers, family, and professional network. The other 90 percent would prefer to watch the highlight reel. Dave Lutz advises always asking: Is this in the best interest of the paying attendee? Here are 5 ways to modernize awards and recognitions: https://lnkd.in/dwmSPGMU #PCMAConvene #EventProfs #Awards

Awards. Some people chase them. Others hate them: Done well, they can add value to your business. This has come up a few times with clients recently, so here are my tips on how your business can get the most from Awards: ⚡️Choose the right awards Sounds obvious but pick awards that match your business goals, and your customers actually care about. (Avoid pay to play!) ⚡️Prepare your entry Study and follow the guidelines. Provide clear, honest information that highlights your business’ strengths and achievements. ⚡️Tell your story Make it engaging - show how your business makes a difference, and the challenges you’ve overcome along the way. ⚡️Share the news Spread the word by sharing your win on social media, your website, press releases (where relevant), and with your customers. ⚡️Update your Marketing channels Don’t forget to add the award logo to your website, business cards, and emails. ⚡️Network Join the award events and ceremonies to connect ith other winners and industry professionals. ⚡️Keep striving for better An award can quickly date! Use it as your motivation to maintain high standards and keep innovating. What’s your view on Awards? 👇🏻 While I’m not a huge fan, being presented with a ‘best mum on your birthday’ award this morning has made my year!

Is my business ready to enter an award? If your business is kicking goals, experiencing growth, creating happy customers, engaging your people, giving back to the community or demonstrating innovation you may well be ready to win an award! In our experience, most businesses tend to underestimate how impressive their achievements are, rather than the other way around. Part of our value-add is to recommend which awards would be suitable to enter now and which might be better to enter down the track. We even advise you on potential areas to work on to improve your suitability for an award. We’ll never suggest you enter an award we don’t think you have a chance of winning. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/g-NTDygi
