ADVantage ADmag Awards call for entry

The ADvantage ADmag Awards for top South African consumer magazines are open for entry. Initiated by John Farquhar, ADvantage's editor-in-chief, the awards recognise outstanding and innovative consumer publishing. Only ABC certified consumer publications are eligible to enter.

Judged by a panel of independent experts, the 2006 ADmag Awards judging process adheres to strict adjudicator guidelines. Winners are chosen on a range of imperatives including editorial focus, relevance to target market and visual appeal. ABCs, cover prices and number of advertising pages sold for 2005 versus 2006 are also taken into account. For the first time, editors are asked to submit preferred categories for their publications according to specific spheres of interest and editorial content.

Where applicable, judges award a winning magazine per category and overall awards are for: Magazine of the Year, Editor of the Year, Publisher of the Year, International Title of the Year, Newcomer of the Year and Best Magazine Advertisement in ADvantage. The judges decisions are final and awards will only be issued to those magazines deemed worthy of accolade by the judging panel.
