Our business analysts are statistic-loving business specialists.
Our word wizards are marketing, communications, and public relations gurus.

We know the questions to ask, the evidence to provide, and the tone of voice to really engage the judging panel.

We can also promise cake. Lots of cake.

Melinda Leyshon, Your Principal Awards Addict

As well as your (far from) average licorice connoisseur, coffee lover and word wizard

I’m Mel, an analytical copywriter who specialises in business awards. I help both small and large businesses develop awards submissions that do more than just tick all of the boxes; they stand out like a tutu at a nudist colony.

I also provide 1:1 mentoring, submission evaluation, training, judging, and awards program management.

With Awards Agency, I’ve assembled the very best team across Sydney, Melbourne, Queensland, Perth and Adelaide – all ready to help your business shine.

We’re predominantly women who love a bit of bling – which is partly why we’re so incredibly committed to helping you bring it home come awards night.

I’ve delivered Local, State and National level winners, industry-specific award winners, product and service winners, and businessperson of the year winners.

I've worked with the Australian Beauty Industry Awards, Australian Tradie Awards, Women in Construction and other awards programs to educate and guide entrants with submissions.

I've helped more clients that I can count to bring home the gold and, while my numbers go up and down like the proverbial yo-yo, I've never fallen below a 92% success rate for winning.

I’m also a consultant and judge for a number of award programs, including the Australian Marketing Institute Awards, international Stevie Awards, and Australian Tradie Awards.

What they're saying

I highly recommend Mel and her team at the Awards Agency. My business is still young, so entering business awards is very new to me. Mel went above and beyond what I had expected and she was always very professional and also very clear on what she required from me.

Thank you for your help and support. I have learnt so much from working with you!

Rachel

I could not recommend Mel and the team at the Awards Agency more highly.

When it came to entering my industry awards I didn't know where to begin, so I decided to get the experts in the field to help me and I have been blown away by the result. From the first conversation to the final submission they have been incredible. What Mel and the team did for me went way beyond my wildest dreams! From the professionalism of the initial interview to gather the information, to the written submissions, to the assisting with the pulling together of the support materials, the whole experience was amazing.

Carolyn

When I enquired (incredibly last minute)for Mel and her teams availability for my awards application, her response was that yes she was very busy but she’d move mountains to help me too. How many people say that?

Mel has oodles of advice and experience, I have taken so much away from my time working with her. The team were wonderful and helped get my entries across the line and looking pretty at the same time. It was an absolute pleasure to work with the Awards Agency, I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Sarah

Mel is amazing to work with and extremely encouraging and knowledgeable when it comes to awards submissions. We knew we were worthy contenders however Mel’s guidance for our first Business Awards Submission was invaluable.

Highly recommend Awards Agency to help give your submission your very best shot!
