Guest post by Sam Hosenkamp, Social Media Director, Ragan Communications
People want to work with your company – they just don’t know it yet. It’s a noisy world we live in and getting your name out there amidst the ever-growing world of traditional media and social media can be overwhelming.
So how can you make your company stand out?
Ragans’s PR Daily garners 400,000 visitors each month and is the highest-ranked PR industry website in the world. And with their sister site—Ragan.com—they’ve become the #1 training site in the PR profession. Now they’ve added an awards program to help get you noticed. Here’s how their brand new PR Daily Awards can get your company the recognition it deserves:
Gifts that keep on giving. Every winner gets a free registration to a Ragan 2012 or 2013 conference of his or her choice. Their conferences feature notable companies like Southwest Airlines, Ogilvy 360° Digital Influence, McDonald’s, Mashable and more. What does this mean for you? It’s an opportunity to learn from and connect with the best and brightest in PR and social media. The gift that keeps on giving!
If you win Ragan’s grand prize of PR Campaign of the Year, you’ll get ten free registrations for our conferences.
Exposure for your brand. Even if you don’t win, your work will be viewed by a panel of some of the best judges in the industry, from reporters at CNN to The Los Angeles Times. It’s a great opportunity to boost brand awareness!
It’s a unique experience. Ragan’s categories are for PR pros, by PR pros. They have traditional awards categories, but decided to put a spin (not that kind of spin) on things: They asked readers what categories they wanted to see and they responded. Here’s a taste of what you can submit for:
- PR Rookie of the Year (Corporate)
- PR Rookie of the Year (Agency)
- Best use of QR codes in a PR/marketing campaign
- Best Executed Social Media Contest
- And many more!
So what are you waiting for? Submit your entry today here.
