We’re delighted that the Confirmit AIR Awards submissions are already flooding in. If you’re still deciding whether to enter, be quick! The deadline is two weeks away but there’s still time. We’ve had lots of questions from customers, so if you need answers or reassurance that you’re on the right track the AIR Awards team is here to help! Here’s what you need to know…
- Am I eligible to enter?
The awards are exclusively open to Confirmit and Dapresy clients. And, if you are entering the AIR Projects and Innovation category, we ask that part of the project is run on Confirmit or Dapresy technology.
- Is this only open to MR businesses?
No, we’d also love to hear from corporate research and insight teams. If you do research internally for an enterprise and it helps your business make better decisions, we want to hear from you. If you’re unsure, let us know and we can help out.
- What are the categories?
We have three categories available to enter.
- AIR Agency, which is a company-level award where you can tell us about the great team you have and the amazing work you do.
- AIR Project and Innovation, which recognizes individual projects undertaken for an end or internal client.
- AIR Professionals which celebrates great researchers. Entrants can nominate an unsung hero in their team and also submit themselves (…there’s nothing wrong with some self-promotion!)
- Can we enter more than one category?
Why not? Maximize your chances of winning and enter all three if you like. And we are very happy to receive submissions for different projects from the same company too – just complete one submission per project.
- How do we enter?
Easy, just download the appropriate submission form from the website, complete it with as much detail as possible, and return it to us at MRAwards@confirmit.com by August 12th.
- Why should we bother?
Not only is winning an award something to celebrate, but it’s an opportunity to pause and appreciate your achievements. And we need that this year. Not to mention it’s free to enter and there’s a shiny trophy!
- Who are the judges?
We are very excited to have some of the world’s leading Market Research and Insight experts on our judging panel, including Fiona Blades, President and Chief Experience Officer, MESH Experience, Shannon Danzy, Online Qualitative Research Specialist, Brand Planner + Workshop Facilitator, Danzy Consulting and Simon Chadwick, Managing Partner, Cambiar Consulting. We’ll be announcing more soon…
- How do we make our submission stand out?
Make it great! What does that mean? Well, focus on the unique elements of the project, person or business you’re entering. Don’t go crazy on background detail – get to the point and use evidence to show you mean business. If you’ve got metrics to back up your claims, make sure you use them (they’ll stay confidential – we promise!)
- When are the winners announced?
We’ll notify winners in Mid-September and then we’ll issue a press release shortly afterward. Note: you have total control of the information that may be disclosed when the results of the awards are shared
- Still have questions?
No problem, just drop the team a line at MRAwards@Confirmit.com and we’ll be happy to help!
Now you’re prepped to enter, what are you waiting for? The clock is ticking! The deadline is August 12th, so head over to the AIR Awards webpage to get started. Good luck!
