SMPS Central PA is excited to announce that the SMPS Philadelphia Marketing Communications Awards (MCA) program is once again open for submissions! This local awards program, modeled after the national SMPS Headquarters competition, provides an incredible opportunity for A/E/C marketing professionals in our region to showcase their talent, creativity, and impact.

This year, submissions are open to firms with offices within the SMPS Philadelphia and SMPS Central PA geographical region. It’s a fantastic chance to gain recognition for the work you’ve done to contribute to your firm’s success.

With a variety of categories—including Brochure, Corporate Identity, Holiday, Internal Communications, Newsletter, Project Pursuit Marketing, Recruitment and Retention Communications, Social Media, Special Event, Tradeshow Marketing, Video, and Website—there’s a perfect fit for all types of marketing efforts.

What’s more, entries will receive feedback from the judges, giving you time to refine your submission for the national SMPS MCA competition. Winners of the Best in Show and People’s Choice awards will also be reimbursed for their entry fees to the national program.
