The judges will be looking for entrants who are leading the way with insightful marketing campaigns, using data insight to generate outstanding responses and measurable results.
The judging will be broken down into three main categories: RSVP Awards which recognise outstanding marketing campaigns; RSVP Craft Awards that celebrate the ‘art’ of a campaign’s individual elements; and Nexus Awards which recognise excellence in creating the foundations on which measurable campaigns are based.
