Submitting an awards nomination that shines

When it comes to submitting a nomination for the MyPorter or MyCleaning Awards, the quality of the nomination will make a difference. A strong nomination stands out, tells a compelling story, and gives the judges everything they need to understand why your nominee is a worthy winner. Here’s how you can ensure your nomination shines...


1. Understand the basics

Before you start writing, take time to read the awards category descriptions (MyPorter / MyCleaning) and the terms and conditions of submitting an entry. Understand the purpose of the award and the qualities or achievements the panel is looking for in a nominee. This will help you tailor your nomination to align with what they value most.


Be sure to cover who the nominee is, their role, why what they do is outstanding, and what impact they have had.


2. Tell a compelling story, and be specific

A successful nomination is more than a list of achievements. It’s about telling a story that demonstrates your nominee’s impact and why they deserve to be recognised.


Do they consistently go above and beyond? Have they overcome external challenges or difficult personal circumstances? Or do they do great things for great causes?


Whatever it is, make sure your story is engaging, factual, and reflects the significance of your nominee’s contributions.


General statements like "They are a great leader" won’t stand out. Instead, support your claims with specific examples. Describe particular projects, achievements, or instances where the nominee has demonstrated excellence. Ensure they align with the award you are nominating them for.


3. Be passionate

It’s important that your nomination is professional, but your passion for your nominee should shine through. Stick to the facts, but present them in a way that is a real celebration of the nominee and their work.


4. Don’t forget the deadline!

This may sound basic, but make sure to meet the deadline of 8th January. While it may seem some time away, it will fly! Of course, spend some time getting your entry where you want it, but don’t leave it too late. You may wish to ask your comms team for some help, in which case it’s important to get them involved early.
