The Rewards

Promotional Opportunities | Publicity Through SIIA | Industry Recognition

Nominating your product or service for a CODiE™ Award can be a rewarding experience. Having the opportunity to match your product up against the competition for review by subject matter experts can give you significant insights and recommendations for your next version. Qualifying as a finalist gets you credibility and visibility that shows you belong at the top of the industry. Winning a CODiE™ Award elevates your product and your company above the competition and shows that you’ve got what it takes to deliver excellence, innovation and quality through you business. We aim to educate the public about you and your product through an SIIA-managed publicity campaign and an online platform where your company can express thought leadership and industry perspective.

Promotional Opportunities

As part of your CODiE™ Awards investment, SIIA will provide you with resources for promoting your nomination:

graphics for use in electronic and print communications
a template press release for use in media outreach
access to the CODiE™ Awards nomination review program, where you can post your product description, public access to your product information online, logo placement, and one embedded video through YouTube

Of course, use of these resources is up to you. Some nominees prefer not to publicize a nomination until they reach the finalist stage. We’ll leave that up to you.
