In an online ceremony, the 2020 winners of our 28 categories were revealed. Milwaukee and Bradfords Building supplies both won three awards. Milwaukee’s unapologetically complex digital campaign, and Bradfords’ classy multi-media campaign both really impressed several different panels of judges – always a mark of real quality.
Ridgemount won both PR Agency of the Year, and Agency of the Year – something not done before – as testament to a remarkable year. They were a part of seven winning entries this year.

Marketing Masterclass for Manufacturers: The Specification Marketing Cycle
Nov 12, 11am
Join Robin Cordy, Marketing Director at NBS and Andy Lambert, Director of Growth at ContentCal as they talk through the specification marketing cycle for construction, and how manufacturers can create a strategy that helps them reach specifiers at all stages of the product selection process.
They will discuss the tactics, insights and tools that can be employed to take a fully integrated digital marketing approach which ultimately helps manufacturers to get their products specified.
All attendees will be able to submit questions to the panel throughout the session.
The winners will be announced at an online presentation on November 26, 2020.
If you are in one of the categories which will be decided by interview, we’ll be in touch very soon!
The panel were all agreed that it is not a case of one medium over another but a matter of a blended approach. Different media have different roles. Those roles are decided by the type of information to be delivered:
• Is it nice to know or need to know? Legislation or technical data may be better presented in a digital format, which is instantly available.
• What format is best suited to the information? For example plans of a building may be more easily viewed in a hard copy format.
• How many and where are the audience? With an online presentation it is possible to reach 1,000 people around the world.
• Do participants want to meet to build relationships? In which case a live event will be best to achieve this.
What is important is that people can enjoy a tailored experience which works for them.
There has been a lot of talk about the new digital age which has been turbocharged as a result of Covid. What does this mean for some of our more traditional forms of interaction – will people still go to exhibitions and what about hardcopy publications? Our panel of experts debated the issues.
We always get requests for deadline extensions, but usually we stick to our announced deadline, just allowing a few days post deadline for the completion of entries already started. However, 2020 has been an unusual year, to say the least, and it seems a number of you are struggling to meet the deadline. Some have issues relating to employees being on or coming back from furlough, and others are simply under immense time pressure because of the restrictions COVID-19 has brought.
Also, we are aware that we had an issue with our website at the end of last week and over the weekend which prevented people from accessing the judging criteria, and will have made a difficult situation even worse for some.
