LCUL's 2022 Excellence in Marketing Awards

Creating amazing work may be its own reward, but having your work seen and recognized by the credit union community is inspiring, encouraging and energizing. The Excellence in Marketing Awards seek to reward marketing and business development teams that truly understand their member as they focus on outcomes, not outputs.

Louisiana credit unions have the opportunity to submit an entry in six (6) categories: Annual Report, Community Outreach, Digital Marketing, Internal/Culture Branding, Newsletter, and Social Media.

LCUL will also be awarding the ‘Best of the Best’ award to one winning entry in each asset category. All entries will be judged by an all-star panel of industry influencers and experts in the field.

Due to the overwhelming number of entries, we’ve expanded the asset categories as follows: $0 - $75 million, $75 - $250 million, $250 - $500 million, and $501 million and over. 

Deadline to submit entries is June 15.
