Marketing Campaign of the Year - Financial Products & Services - Ebook: The Digital Asset Data Guide for Financial Professionals

Amberdata launched the Digital Asset Guide for Financial Professionals campaign on February 14, 2022. The main content, an eBook, was launched via a blog post, a website pillar page, in Amberdata’s eNewsletter, website popups, paid media and partner marketing.

The campaign was designed around an eBook, The Digital Asset Data Guide for Financial Professionals, to help solidify Amberdata as a thought leader in the digital asset space. Amberdata worked hard to ensure this first piece of content they created when they began formal marketing of their SaaS product educated institutional investors on the need for solid data to succeed in the previously unknown arena of the digital asset class such as cryptocurrencies.      

The campaign was designed to: 

  • Boost Amberdata's website ranking and establish industry authority on digital assets for web search engines.
  • Create brand recognition around Amberdata in the digital asset data community.
  • Equip the sales team with an outreach tool for prospects.
  • Create sales leads via form submission, a “trade” for contact information.
  • Provide an asset for paid media partnerships, paid social, and general online advertising.

We couldn't have said it better ourselves. Well done, Amberdata and Isos Technology!

We strongly believe in submitting for any awards possible in your industry, vertical, and company business practice (like finance, marketing, and engineering). And, we can only lead by example. When looking through our client's for possible award winners, we looked towards multi-pronged executions with solid lead and revenue goals AND results.

Elevating Your Professional Presence With The Impact Of Awards

Here is our two cents on the subject of awards.

When you're a startup or small business, submitting for an award may not always be top of mind. But the nomination process often pays off as a win can bring numerous benefits to a small company. Here are five reasons why entering your business is a good idea:

  1. Enhanced Credibility: Winning an award adds credibility to your company's name and helps build a positive reputation. It signals to customers, investors, and partners that your business has been recognized for excellence.
  2. Positive Publicity: Awards often come with free or inexpensive media coverage and public recognition. This exposure allows you to reach a wide audience and attract new opportunities with limited marketing dollars.
  3. Boost Employee Morale: Acknowledging your company's accomplishments validates your employees’ hard work and dedication, boosting morale and motivation. 
  4. Attract Top Talent: An award-winning company is seen as an attractive workplace, appealing to the best talent who value being a part of a successful organization.
  5. Long-Term Impact: Even after the initial excitement fades, your award remains a testament to your company’s excellence, and lasting impact on your reputation. 
  6. Inbound Links: Yes, you'll likely get an inbound link from the highly credible awards website page.

Overall, awards commemorate diligent effort and achievement, resulting in opportunities for positive publicity.
