Reinventing the way effectiveness awards are judged, the B2B category will be deliberated using the B2B Effectiveness Ladder – a universal framework of the six main types of effects that B2B marketing produces, showing how to use strategy and creativity to drive specific B2B marketing outcomes. The Collaboration & Culture and Sustained Growth categories will be judged using the Creative Effectiveness Ladder.
Every winning and shortlisted entry will receive feedback on how they’ve performed on the Ladders, helping drive business and industry success.
The Awards are free to enter and open to all. Entries will be accepted until 02 March 2022. The winners will be announced at Cannes Lions in June.
Last week, the WARC Awards named the juries for Customer Experience, Instant Impact and Brand Purpose.
