AWARD MEMBERSHIP TOTAL NOW 508 AND COUNTING

September 22 2006, 9:40 am | BY campaignbrief | 24 Comments

AWARD’s target of a record 500 strong membership before Christmas has just been reached, thanks to Blog Power! AWARD thanks all 508 members in Australia and New Zealand for getting behind the creative organisation. With more members-only benefits than ever and more planned (including the AWARD Presentation in early November), the creative community have realised membership has its privileges!

Of course, you can still become a member if you haven’t already – just email michael@campaignbrief.com and the list will continue to grow.

This latest blitz follows the success of the mid-year membership drive conducted while the organisation was becoming independent of its management company. Nearly 200 members were added during this period, more than doubling the membership, which had dropped to a sad, record low of 160 members. A 500+ membership will give the non-profit organisation the solid base of support it needs to fight its good fight into the future – and the means to give back to members incredible value for their membership.

One change AWARD has made recently is to include Planners on the credits list of work that will appear in the 2007 AWARD Book, and extend Gold membership eligibilty to any Planners that do so. In addition, Planners who have been involved with any work that has been accepted in any AWARD Annual since 1979 (as long as AWARD can verify that!) are also eligible for Gold membership.

We are compiling a running list of new and renewed members right here on the CB Blog. So if you want to join the illustrious company below, email michael@campaignbrief.com and Lynchy will put your name on the list and pass your details on to AWARD.
