The How-Do Awards 2009

[Skip to entry form]

Thursday 30 April 2009 will see the second How-Do Awards at Old Trafford football ground – a unique event celebrating the very best in media and creative that the North West offers with 12 awards spanning the region’s rapidly converging creative sectors.

There is no charge for submitting an entry – or entries – to the How-Do Awards and we have endeavoured to keep the entry process as simple and straightforward as possible.

The judges will be looking for examples of companies or organisations who can clearly demonstrate transparent success in 2008: growth of the company or reversing decline, managing and overcoming adversities, job creation, financial performance, industry accolades, innovation, staff development, leadership etc. This is your chance to let over 40,000 of the North West’s leading media folk know how successful your company was in 2008 – and indeed going forward into 2009.

The judges are looking for literate, justifiable and compelling entries written to a maximum of 500 words. The submitting company or organisation must be headquartered or have an operational base within the North West and the entry must relate to its 2008 activities.

Entries should be submitted by company personnel – not by their representatives.

The deadline for entries is Friday 6 March 2009. Entries arriving after this date or not adhering to the entry criteria will be disqualified.

There are 12 award categories and – where appropriate and applicable - there is no limit on the number of categories that can be entered by a single company, i.e. – a newspaper group with print and digital interests can enter the newspaper, magazine and web site categories or an advertising agency can enter the advertising/media agency, digital or design categories where they believe their output in those categories merits submissions.

The categories are:

  • Newspaper - daily, weekly or other
  • Website
  • Advertising/Media agency
  • Media sales team
  • Digital agency – incorporating search
  • Magazine
  • PR agency
  • TV programme
  • Design consultancy
  • Independent production company
  • Most innovative media product/platform
  • Radio station
  • Personality
