The problem creative agency onepointfive faced was a tale as old as time: A team full of marketing professionals too busy servicing their clients to sing their own praises. Luckily, they were referred to Awards Writers for some professional help.
Having created a groundbreaking event for dating app brand, Bumble, onepointfive wanted the industry recognition they so richly deserved.
As with all awards hopefuls, we started with a discovery call. As experts in writing award entries, we never take on a project unless we believe it’s worthy of a place on a shortlist.
The team at onepointfive had created a truly memorable event at London’s latest Gen Z hotspot House Party. The entry was for a creative industry award – the Campaign Experience Awards – but that doesn’t mean data is any less important than in other sectors. Alongside the creative excellence, we wanted to be able to demonstrate that the event had resulted in a tangible impact for the client. We explored a series of angles and came up with an entry that captured the attention to detail and immersive aspects of the event as well as using the all-important data to demonstrate that it was worth it… all within the word counts required!
When they came to us, onepointfive had already negotiated a deadline extension with the awards scheme (due to the event taking place just before the submission date), but we still had to work at pace, agreeing a tight timetable for the writing and revisions.
And it paid off. In April 2025, onepointfive took home the trophy, coming out on top of a shortlist which also featured global network agencies putting on events for the likes of Netflix, Revolut and Play-Doh.
“We can’t thank the team at Awards Writers enough. They helped us distil our story, tell us the data we needed to support it, and then crafted it all into a compelling entry that not only put us on the shortlist next to some of the biggest names in the business, but helped us bring home the trophy.
“We wanted our team to get the recognition they deserve, and Awards Writers have helped us do that.” – Rob Pryce, Director at onepointfive
