Dream Doors in running to win four national franchise marketing awards
DREAM Doors is in line to win four major national awards at The Franchise Marketing Awards 2018.
The UK’s #1 kitchen makeover firm has been named as a finalist in the categories of Best Print Advert and Best Online Marketing Campaign.
The company is also through to the finals in the categories of Best Website and Best Franchisee Marketing Support.
Dream Doors recently completed its largest ever training course, taking seven new groups of franchisees through its comprehensive training programme (pictured).
This is the twelfth year running Dream Doors has reached the finals of the Franchise Marketing Awards.
An awards spokesman said competition has been ‘fierce’ this year, adding: “The awards are renowned for recognising innovative and effective marketing campaigns and marketing support offered by franchisors to their franchisees.”
Dream Doors’ Director of Franchise Recruitment, Alex Waite, said: “This is great news for Dream Doors as we’ve been shortlisted in all four categories that we entered.
“Also, this is the twelfth year in succession that we’ve reached the finals.
“It proves that the marketing support we all benefit from is among the best in the franchise industry.
“Let’s hope we pick up some trophies. But even if we get just one more win, we’ll have ten Franchise Marketing Awards on display.”
Dream Doors has previously been shortlisted for 35 awards and has won nine.
The winners of this year’s awards will be announced at The National Franchise Exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham on 5th October. The exhibition is held over two days, closing at 4pm on Saturday 6th October. The Dream Doors team can be found on stand L60.
This year’s awards, which are being judged by an independent panel of experts, are sponsored by AW Digital.
