Our Award Winners’ PR Toolkit has been produced to help award-winning businesses make the most of the PR opportunity.

Congratulations on winning an award. As well as recognising the quality of your product, this win represents an urgent PR opportunity.
Media coverage won’t magically ensue: you’ll have to be proactive and tell the right journalists why they should cover your business.
Produced for those who are time-poor and not marketing professionals, this PR Toolkit advises you on how to secure and maximise the media coverage around your award win. It is split into four main sections covering who to contact, what exactly to say, how best to say it and when to say it. You can also read case studies from previous winners who have scored media coverage on the back of winning an award. The final section focuses on the world of ‘influencers’.
Good luck in making the most of your fantastic award win!
