The judges of the B2B Marketing Awards included Senior VP, Marketing & Communications, Mastercard, Global Strategic Marketing Leader, PwC, and Director of B2B Marketing, BskyB. Comments on the Dukes of Chippingdom campaign included, “it’s not very often that judges are stuck at a crossroads, one of the most difficult decisions in their professional lives – is it going to be burger or chips? The gold, however, needs to go to the entry that has demonstrated the clarity of their B2B marketing, from identifying their target audience, to reaching them by using the right channels, right tone of voice, right branding through to right results. After weighing their options, the judges have decided that the crispy gold goes to Dukes of Chippingdom.”
