In 2016, the Facebook Awards will grow to identify, share and honor even more creative work from around the world, setting the bar for creativity on Facebook and beyond. This year, the categories include Best Use of Facebook Platforms, Beyond Facebook/Integrated, Innovation, Small Business, and Facebook for Good.
Submissions for the 2016 Facebook Award will open January 8, 2016. See below for details of entry. Best of luck, and may the best campaigns win!
Eligibility
The Facebook Awards are open to campaigns that ran between February 1, 2015 and March 31, 2016. Submissions may be entered into, and may potentially win, multiple categories. Please enter into the category you feel best represents your campaign.
Your Submission should:
- Feature work that is part of a creative, innovative Facebook-centric campaign.
- Highlight the ways your campaign(s) used Facebook marketing tools, such as Facebook Ads, Page Publishing, advanced targeting and/or how it was integrated with other forms of media.
- Include a case study or non-confidential campaign metrics that highlight why the campaign was a success.
- Comply with Facebook format and technical guidelines and specifications.
The demonstration of creativity is the core criterion of the Facebook Awards. In all categories judges will look for its expression through innovation, originality and executional excellence. They will weigh the core insight that drove the campaign, the value the content offered the consumer and how well it met the proposed business objectives.
Additionally, they are interested in seeing how Facebook, as a creative canvas, played a role in the campaign. In short, they look for brilliant, inspired work that changes the way the industry approaches content publishing and sets the bar at new heights.
