The mission of the CUNA Marketing & Business Development Council’s Diamond Awards program is to recognize and reward the credit union industry’s creative spirit. The annual program attracts over 1,200 applications every year from credit unions across the country—including here in Maine! Due to the popularity of the awards program, CUNA is seeking candidates to judge the 2023 entries. Would you like to lend your support?
By becoming a judge, you can count yourself among the top influencers and promoters in credit union marketing. You’ll sift through innovative campaigns to find the best and brightest to give them the recognition they deserve.
All 2023 award categories will be judged remotely through a private online platform and will take place over a two-week period between January 17-31, 2023, depending on the awards that you are interested in judging.
“Judging the Diamond Awards is an experience and responsibility like no other,” said Mike Rosmus, Creative Marketing Manager, at the Maine Credit Union League and Synergent. “It’s a chance to be a part of a program that is held in the highest regard in our credit union industry. You’ll absolutely enjoy the experience and may even discover fresh ideas that can be brought back to your credit union to use in your own marketing initiatives.”
To be considered, please complete CUNA’s online application by October 17, 2022. If you have questions about the judging process, please email Mike Rosmus at mrosmus@synergentcorp.com.
“I found it to be a very fulfilling experience,” said Mandy Dehate, CUCME, AVP Marketing, Visions FCU. “Seeing the creativity and ideas from fellow credit union marketers made me proud to be part of such a great industry that is truly helping people. Apply! It’s a worthwhile commitment of your time and a great way to engage with credit union marketing. Every credit union is different and being a judge, you see the diversity that exists outside your own shop.”
