Countdown to Campaign Brief Agency of the Year plus CB Hot List – deadline Friday 6 December
It’s soon time to pick CB Australian Agency of the Year and NZ Agency of the Year — and also to work out the 2025 CB Hot Chart, plus the top 20 agencies that make the 2025 CB Hot List.
As far as most agency creative directors (and increasingly, more CEOs and CMOs) on both sides of the Tasman are concerned, CB Agency of the Year is the most coveted of all trade mag titles to win – and where an agency is placed on our annual charts (Last year’s charts are pictured above – there are separate charts for NZ, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide) is critical to many agency’s new business performance in the coming year (that’s the bit of most interest to CEOs and CMOs!).
You’ll be pleased to know it’s FREE TO ENTER, unlike the other money-grabbing trade press titles.
Provide all your best work on a USB stick (or email via We Transfer or similar). Please list in a separate doc. number of staff, highlights of the year, including all awards won in 2024, new people, plus accounts won and lost.
Please only include work that has or will run between January 1 and December 31, 2024.
Even if you feel it’s not your year, please send us your best as it is vital to work out where your agency fits on the 2025 CB Hot+Cold Chart, and if your agency makes the 2025 CB Hot List (last year’s Hot List is shown below).
Make sure your package arrives at CB or emailed by Friday 6 December, 2024.
