The Gold Circle Awards competition is the premier marketing, membership and communications awards program for the association/nonprofit space. It recognizes excellence, innovation and achievement in marketing, membership and communications programs. This year’s competition received more than 163 entries across 11 categories, including convention/meeting campaign, print magazine, member retention campaign and video.

“This award recognizes associations who are creating effective ways to communicate their messages including elements of creativity, design, technology, and metrics, which measure the success of their tactics and campaigns,” said ASAE President and CEO John H. Graham IV, FASAE, CAE. “Marketing, membership and communications are crucial functions for any association – it’s the primary means for sharing information with members and staff as well as branding the organization to the global community.”

Entries for the Gold Circle Awards competition are judged in each category based on criteria established by the ASAE Gold Circle Award Committee for excellence in association marketing, membership and communications programs.

“We received exceptional submissions this year in all the categories, and the judges had a hard time selecting which organizations received the Gold Circle Awards,” said Tom Quash, CAE, VP, Marketing, Communications and Publications at the Association of Women’s Health, Obstetric & Neonatal Nurses, and chair of the Gold Circle Awards Committee. “During the MMCC conference, we will have an education session highlighting winners’ projects, so attendees can gain insight on strategies that worked well and use them for future campaigns.”
