It’s time to get to work. If you’ve been putting off your Event Awards entry – or entries – we advise getting your cogs whirring now. There’s three weeks (and a weekend) left to enter the Event Awards and put yourself in the running for national recognition for your work.
Entries are 2,600 words: if you start today, it’s 175 words per working day or just over four minutes punching away at the keyboard for an average typist. Getting started now means you’ll have plenty of time to work through your entry at a considered pace.
And even if you’re a fan of the flat-out entry-writing sprint in the two days before entries close, it can’t hurt to start getting your head around what you need to do now. Start gathering your facts, figures and testimonials from your team and your stakeholders.
Entries close 5 August 2024.
