I just wrapped up the second round of judging for the 2024 Canadian Marketing Awards [CMA] Awards!

It’s an incredible privilege to contribute to an event that celebrates the forefront of technological innovation, AI-driven insights, strategic brilliance, creative execution, and powerful storytelling in our industry.

It’s these moments that reinforce my passion for this field—seeing how our industry continually evolves while maintaining a focus on delivering meaningful results.

As we approach the final round, the excitement is building… kudos to the agencies, marketers, creative teams, and brand strategists who brought these campaigns to life—you’re certainly pushing the boundaries!

Judging for the Canadian Marketing Awards 2023 “Engagement Discipline”

I’m very proud and thrilled to have been selected by the Canadian Marketing Association this year to participate as a judge for the “CMA Awards 2023 “in the Engagement Discipline!

I’ve finished evaluating and assessing campaigns from across the Country, and found some creative, bold, and outstanding examples of “Engagement!”

What is Engagement?

Engagement is about the dialogue between brands and people – B2B, B2C, partners, or employees. To manage long-term relationships (quarterly or annually) or lifetime value-driven (as opposed to one-off tactics), the dialogue can use personalization, experiential techniques, content driven, or target a community.

Social media is used to spark continued exposure (earned media, impressions, and interactions) with:

  • current news items
  • public interest topics
  • influencer marketing
  • product promotions or organizational updates

I wish everyone Good Luck !

Liz Palmer
