LONDON, May 31, 2017 - (ACN Newswire) - The first shortlist of The WARC Awards, a new global competition honouring the effective use of emerging marketing disciplines, is now released.
 | | Quinn Kilbury, Senior Brand Director of Heineken US |
A total of 19 entries from ten countries have been shortlisted in the Social Strategy category, which links social strategy to business success.
Chaired by Quinn Kilbury, Senior Brand Director of Heineken US, the 17-strong jury panel of senior industry experts looked for campaign strategies that relied on the benefits of particular social platforms - or a combination of those platforms - to fulfil particular business objectives.
Additionally they looked for marketing programmes that were social by design - not simply a small part of a broader marketing initiative - and that made a significant impact on brand performance or influenced consumer behaviour.
