The Background

The last few years have been the most difficult years in recent history. And the impact on the marketing communications industry has faced significant challenges.

For brands and businesses, RoI has become paramount – and even more so today, and it’s just as true for our industry.

In this environment, agency management is searching for areas in which costs can be cut without compromising on the quality of their output. While it is imperative to celebrate creativity through awards, RoI on award spends has become critical.

It’s this simple understanding of what the agency is going through which has provoked us at Kyoorius to launch ‘The Shortlist’ – to help agencies manage costs in the area of awards entries.

What is The Shortlist?

The Shortlist will help agencies make informed investment decisions that maximise your metal winning chances through an expert, third party audit of entries – an audit that tells you if an entry is likely to win at the major awards shows around the world.

The Shortlist is NOT an award.

Here’s how it works:

a) Agencies send entries to be evaluated
b) A world-class jury judges the entries
c) The entries are graded as follows:
– No chance of winning awards or being shortlisted
– Reasonable chance of being shortlisted or being awarded
– High chance of being shortlisted or being awarded
