About This Category
Calling all agencies and brands! This award celebrates the campaigns that made you sit back and say, “Yes, we nailed it.” It’s for work that went beyond posting a single piece of content, campaigns that combined strategy, creativity, and measurable impact, while collaborating with content creators in an authentic and compliant way. We’re looking for campaigns that not only delivered results but also resonated culturally, captured audience attention, and set a benchmark for branded content in the creator economy. This category is not for creators to enter, it’s all about the brand and agency execution. This is the only category with an entry fee of R2,900 per entry. The entry fees go into creating creator workshops to help emerging creators professionalise their craft.
