Community ManagerDo you expect major changes to the award nomination criteria?
Any idea of the deadline for submission? PLEASE don't make it over Labor Day weekend. During the summer, it will already be extra challenging to get timely edits, quotes, and approvals when so many are on vacation. THANK YOU!!
Community Manageradrianne608, we don't have additional dates to share just yet, but I can confirm the deadline will be ahead of Labor Day weekend. The POTYA team will be publishing the guidelines well in advance of the nomination window opening to allow ample time for nomination planning. The goal is to enable partner teams to work on nomination contents even before the tool opens.
Any updates on dates? All of the downloadable docs on POTY homepage (https://partner.microsoft.com/en-us/inspire/awards) are for 2024?
I'd be really grateful to know the submission deadline, most of Europe is off during July and August and it will be very challenging to get all the information. So the earlier we know the better prepared we can be. Thanks
Hi Su - We have started now and are planning to finish our submissions by the end of June when the tool opens up. You are right, there will be no one available for interviews, writing, etc. in the summertime.
Adrianne - start now. There won't be huge changes. The main criteria will be the same. Client stories of innovation - make sure you have the latest technology - map out the customer ROI, try to publish a case study or Win Wire, gather ALL your information so that the actual writing of the submission can happen in May and you can submit in June. Take the summer off 😀 And feel free to reach out if you have questions.
