How To Use Best in Media for Entries
Welcome to Best in Media, the fully online awards platform for the broadcast and publication industry. Best in Media seamlessly integrates the pre-entry, entry, payment, and judging processes into one easy-to-use experience.
The Process Is Simple:
1. Choose Your Divisions and Categories
Determine which divisions and categories you plan to enter. Be sure to review your association’s or organization’s website for specific rules, criteria, and eligibility requirements. This step is critical, as entries are judged by industry professionals nationwide using these same guidelines. Failure to comply with the rules or criteria may result in disqualification.
2. Prepare Your Media
Gather the materials you will submit. Entries may include video, audio, images, documents, websites, and social media content.
3. Create a Compelling Entry Title
Choose a strong, headline-style name for your entry. Avoid administrative or internal wording. Keep in mind: the title you submit is exactly what will appear on the award plaque should you win.
4. Identify Contributors
Be prepared to list all individuals involved in the project who should receive recognition.
5. Have Your Payment Ready
All payments are processed through PayPal. You may use a PayPal account or pay with a credit or debit card. In some cases, Venmo is also available.
6. Start Your Entry
When ready, visit www.bestinmedia.com, hover over the “QuickStart Guides” tab, and select your association or organization. The QuickStart Guide will walk you through the remainder of the entry process. In many cases, you may receive a direct link to your guide, allowing you to begin even faster.
We hope you enjoy the streamlined process Best in Media has developed through years of iteration and experience. As always, good luck with your entries.
Sincerely,
The Best in Media Team
