MARKETING EXCELLENCE AWARDS

2022 TCIA Marketing Excellence Awards

Call for Submissions

The Marketing Excellence Awards are back at TCI EXPO ’22 to celebrate TCIA members whose efforts delivered exceptional performance and innovative approaches. In recent years, we extended this program to TCIA Corporate Members.

The TCIA Marketing team calls on all members, both commercial tree care companies and corporate members, to submit their stories of helping accelerate their business growth by exposing and promoting great marketing campaigns

The Marketing Excellence Awards are designed to reward and recognize those individuals and organizations who primarily go unrecognized for helping to build great brands and products of world-class organizations in the tree care industry.

New this year!

No category restrictions! Previously, members were required to submit multiple pieces at once, and this change will allow participants to be more flexible when choosing the marketing effort they would like to share.

Who can win?

If you are a member of TCIA, you can win! The top three TCIA Tree Care Company Members and top three TCIA Corporate Member submissions are invited to share their experience and innovation at a round-table session at TCI EXPO’22 in Charlotte in November 2022! Last year’s participants were even featured in TCI Magazine!

What is a Marketing Effort?

How Do I Submit it?

  • Marketing efforts taking place between January 2021 and August 2022 qualify. This is your company at its most creative! We will need you to provide PDFs and/or links where applicable to all submissions.
  • When you make your submission, we are looking for why you created the marketing campaign/pieces in the first place. Were you successful in fulfilling your goals, or did something totally unexpectedly great happen? We love a good story to let us know why this marketing effort stands out.
  • Creativity is key! Even if you didn’t reach the eyes of a million people, we still would love to see the creative process you (and potentially your team) went through to create something!
  • There is no submission limit, please just make sure for each individual marketing effort you submit that you create an individual form each time.
  • The TCIA Marketing team is always available if you have any questions, please reach out to us at marketing@tcia.org for any questions you may have pop up during the submission process.

Last year’s submissions were some of the best we have seen and we are excited to see what you have in store for us this year!
