Award Strategy & Nomination Writing

You’re a marketing and communications professional who’s trying to find a better way to be in more places at once. But wouldn’t it be cool if you could hit your marketing + PR goals for the quarter with as little as ONE award win?

No more ghosted email pitches, unpredictable ad spend, or media opportunities that were always a long shot to begin with.

You’re ready to play the long game and win big at the exact same time.

Options:

• Done-for-you 12-month award strategy

  A 12-month strategic award plan with your organization’s goals, impact, results and culture clearly outlined to make applying or nominating yourself a straightforward, repeatable process.

• Done-for-you 12-month award strategy + ongoing support

  Also includes:

  • 90 days of support

  • One 30-minute strategy check-in with Alison per month

  • Skip-the-line award application + nomination services (additional scopeif needed)

  • One award nomination

• Done-for-you nomination writing

  Have a laundry list of award nominations you need to write with no time to write them and no idea what to say so you actually get selected?

  If you already have the metrics and milestones that prove you’re great, but you need a world-class storyteller to show you off to the judges, this service is for you.

• Post-win GEO + AI visibility strategy

  You won an award! Congrats! You're sitting on recognition, press coverage and credibility that should be showing up when buyers research you, when AI search engines answer questions about your industry, and when your next prospect Googles your category.

  Right now, most of it's invisible. Through content strategy and public relations we can optimize your win for AI search visibility.
