Last week the Global Influencer Marketing Awards were hosted in London and Citizen took home a Gold award in the category of Most Effective Collaboration or Partnership. The “I Buy My Own Batteries’ campaign partnered with Essence Mediacom and VaynerMedia to take a historically low-interest category like batteries to new heights with reality star Ariana Madix.
The Global Influencer Marketing Awards honors individuals, campaigns, and teams that have pushed boundaries and delivered excellence. Citizen’s campaign took home the top honor in this category which shines a spotlight on outstanding influencer campaigns and collaborations from around the world, celebrating innovative projects that push boundaries and make a significant impact in the influencer marketing space.
“This campaign continues to show that the right partnership and timing are everything. We are thrilled at its success and the attention it has brought to the Duracell brand.” said Aly Sturm, SVP Citizen Relations and lead for this campaign. “We are humbled to receive this honor and be in a lineup with other household names.”
The campaign has received a number of accolades over the last several months including a top prize at the Ragan PRDaily Media Relations Awards, an honorable mention at the PRWeek Awards, a bronze at the PRSA Anvil Awards, and shortlist at the Innovation Sabre Awards.
