Unveiling the Power of Marketing Awards: How Recognition Transforms Client Success Stories!
Here at 2 Fish Company, we’ve always kept the client in mind when we’ve submitted work to awards competitions. First, we ask if they’re comfortable with us submitting their work. For instance, the work may still be under an NDA, so double-checking helps. Next, we make sure that the client is listed in the personnel that did the creative being submitted. They participated in the development of the work and paid for it, so they should get recognition as well. If there is a ceremony and we’re planning to attend, we invite the client. Finally, no matter what, we ensure the client has a copy of the certificate or plaque to tell the story of the win in their context.

It’s the end of the year; traditionally, by now, most companies have their budgets set for the coming year, a process that usually begins in August. Departments are expected to review their spend-to-date against what was approved and present any plans that change the set spend for review—routine stuff. Since the global pandemic, however, business […]

Everything has Changed, Including Sales
The world keeps changing and evolving, including marketing and sales approaches. Returning to our “normal” sales rhythm post-pandemic has been difficult. Remote work has made connecting with prospective customers less straightforward, more informal, and often unplanned.
