As you probably know, Brandcurve is part of the b5media blogging network. This week, b5media got a huge PR bump with the announcement that b5media has been announced as a 2008 Canadian New Media Awards “Most Promising Company of the Year” finalist.
2008 marks the eighth year that the Canadian New Media Awards is recognizing the accomplishments of individuals and businesses in the Canadian new media industry. Winners will be announced at a special event in November.
Getting nominated for (and winning) awards is a great way to give your brand a PR boost. Of course, not all awards offer the same amount of credibility, but they do offer more positive exposure for your brand. And you never know, you just might win one!
Take the time to research the types of awards given for businesses in your field that could help your brand, then nominate yourself (or ask someone else to nominate you, if necessary). Typically, award nomination forms don’t take very long to complete, and the potential for publicity can be huge.
