Anyone marketing their product or service in the B2B space will know about the International B2B Marketing Awards. This annual event is the pinnacle of the industry and recognises the very best in business-to-business marketing. Drawing in hundreds of the industry’s brightest and most creative minds, the evening itself is always one to remember, but the journey starts with the shortlist.

Our history at the event

Over the years, Really B2B has had great success at the B2B Marketing Awards – winning more than enough to fill our trophy shelf at HQ. Last year, we were even given the enviable task of working with B2B Marketing to create their ‘big idea’ and creative approach for the awards campaign. But of course, none of this matters in this year’s race for success. It was down to our creative thinking, planning, and execution over the past 12 months to ensure we were in the running for awards in 2019. And wow, did we exceed our expectations.

Best year yet!

Following a tremendous year of multi-channel marketing for our clients, including M&S Corporate Gifts and Redstor, we submitted our award-entries with fingers, toes, and everything we could find crossed. And then just last week, the shortlist was announced. Really B2B has been shortlisted for 8 (yes 8!) B2B Marketing Awards, including two in the same category…

• Best Use of Direct Mail
• Best Use of Customer Insight
• Most Commercially Successful Campaign x 2
• Best Integration of Sales and Marketing
• Best Corporate Decision-Maker Targeted Campaign
• Best SME-Targeted Campaign
• Agency of the Year

Now what?

Surprised, shocked, honoured – we’ve felt it all over the past few days. These nominations are a powerful reminder that we are doing great things for our clients, and the industry is noticing. From helping SMEs grow to targeting decision-makers at the largest corporate enterprises, we’ll turn our hand to anything – in the most commercially-successful ways. But as always, the wheels of B2B lead generation never stop turning – either for us or our clients – so for the time being, it’s back to business. The actual awards aren’t until later in the year so we’ll continue the celebrations for a while yet, and give you more updates nearer the time.

If you’d like to talk about award-winning B2B lead generation and how our vast array of in-house experts can help you achieve growth and ROI (and maybe even an award or two), simply give us a call today on 02392 314498.
