Online Marketing finalists revealed
The finalists for the 2015 Online Marketing Awards which were announced this week feature well-known local businesses such as Supermac’s, Croí and Kinlay Hostel as well as less familiar ones like Medical Exam Tutor and Bec Boop.
There are four categories for the awards as well as the overall Marketing Leadership Award which includes a package of prizes valued at €20,000.
The awards, which are in their second year, will be presented at a gala ceremony in the Town Hall Theatre next Wednesday, April 8, from 6pm.
“We were delighted with the number and quality of entries this year,” said Maricka Burke-Keogh, founder of Online Marketing in Galway, organisers of the awards.
“We had over 200 entries across all categories and the challenge of whittling these down to a shortlist of five or six was significant.
“Thankfully we have a great team of judges working on this over the past few weeks,” she added.
There are four award categories – Best Website, Best Blog, Best Social Media and the People’s Choice Award – as well as the Overall Marketing Leadership Award.
The shortlist is:
Best Website: Croí, The West of Ireland Cardiac Foundation; Digital Training Institute; Eireagle.com; Medical Exam Tutor; Supermac’s, and Vespa Ireland.
