MARKETING’S ULTIMATE TEAM AWARD TM The 75th Annual DMA International ECHO Awards showcased the best campaigns that the direct response discipline had to offer. As chair and co-chair of the International ECHO Awards Board of Governors, we were proud to be a part of what arguably was the best awards show ever. As we reviewed the entries more than once, we had a recurring thought: “I wish I had been part of the team working on that campaign.” Imagining the energy, strategic insight, and creativity building to these successful results, we could nearly feel the sense of pride and camaraderie among the team members that brought home these winning initiatives. The campaigns were innovative, provocative, motivating, and captivating. But what set these award-winning campaigns apart from the others is that they displayed the ultimate combination of brilliant datadriven strategy, outstanding creative, which in turn, generated amazing results. The digital program book contains the best of the best and we hope that you’re as impressed as we were when we first saw them. Prepare to be inspired yourself by the summary of the award-winning campaigns in this digital book. If you’d like to be inspired even more, I’d encourage you to take three actions: 1) Visit the Library of ECHO Award Case Studies at www.dma-echo.org, where you can get an in-depth look at the strategy, creative, and results for current and past winners. 2) Dream new possibilities by starting to plan an entry in the 2014 ECHO Awards Competition—it’s never too early to start. 3) Visit our ECHO Facebook group, where you can receive notifications for the 2014 competition.

The problem was that for most people, health insurance is boring. A campaign embraced the boredom and set out to establish PNOzorg as the most boring, since that’s what the best in the business ought to be. It ran a boring promotion at an event, mailed a direct mail piece that warned of boredom on the envelope, and broadcast a terribly dull radio ad. Emails and banners also spread the word, and the campaign took off on social media. In the end, the results were far from boring: they tripled the goal for new contracts.

The email campaign was the year’s most effective, with 54% taking a test drive.

Supported by the DMA, the ECHO is the only international award where judges rigorously assess entries based on strategy, creative, and results. The focus is on balanced judging assessment, combining topnotch, experienced judges and outstanding entries year in and out, has played a major role in the ECHO Awards representing the best that direct and digital marketing have to offer. ENTRY CATEGORIES ECHO entries are judged by business category. There are fifteen separate categories representing business segments. Categorizing entries by business segment enables entries to be evaluated by judging panels who are experts and leaders in their peer groups in the relevant business category. This leads to a more intelligent and insightful evaluation of entries. For a list of categories, visit www.dma-echo.org BY 3 ROUNDS OF ECHO JUDGING All International ECHO Award winners go through three rounds of judging. Round 1 is a screening round, so the main objective is to determine which entries should be considered as ECHO Award contenders with a chance to make it through to Round 2. Through a combination of individual reviews followed by collaborative discussion, judging panels determine which entries represent an effective balance of strategy, creative execution, and results; and which move on to the next round. Ultimately the scoring will be: “PASS” or “FAIL.” Round 2 is a scoring round so the main objective is to identify entries or campaigns that should be considered for one of the five tiers of awards. The judges determine if an entry is “superb” or “above average” in the campaign strategy, execution, and results and if this entry should be considered as an “ECHO Award contender,” with a chance to advance to Round 3. Judging in this round is done individually. For every campaign, the judge assigns a score from 1-30 for each of the three distinct areas—strategy, creative, and results. Round 3 is a final scoring round, meaning the judges identify the shortlisted campaigns that are eligible for one of the five categories of awards, and determine if a campaign’s strategy, execution, and results are “superb.” Ultimately the judges are helping to decide which entries will have the opportunity to win the prestigious Diamond ECHO™. In Round 3, entries are reviewed individually by three senior-level judges, all of whom are the most experienced direct and digital marketers. Each entry carries its Round 2 score into Round 3. The Round 2 score is an average score based on the sum total and the number of judges. Scores will range from 54 to 90 based on the category, as some categories are scored higher or lower than others. In order to move on to Round 3, an entry’s score must: = or > than the category average. Each Round 3 judge reviews each entry in the three areas—strategy, creative, and results—and awards a score of 0-3 for each. These are the last nine yards, which will ultimately determine which award the entry will receive. 62 SPECIAL ECHO AWARDS The ECHO Board of Governors, along with award sponsors, will determine potential eligibility for three special awards. The Diamond, Hoke Award, and USPS Gold Mailbox awards are selected by pulling from the highest scoring entries from Round 3. Other special awards—Personal Connections ECHO (sponsored by Pitney Bowes), and Green ECHO™ are chosen by members of the DMA Committee on Environment & Social Responsibility (CESR) in cooperation with the DMA: and a Pitney Bowes Inc. marketing executive from the top-scoring entries that meet the specific award qualifications. JUDGE REPRESENTATION For the 2013 DMA International ECHO Awards, Round 1 judging took place in Denmark, Australia, and New York City. Rounds 2 and 3 judging were in New York.
