Industry awards aren’t just about prestige. They build credibility, attract talent, impress investors – and give your marketing team a lot to talk about!
But writing a standout award entry takes more than listing achievements. It takes strategy, storytelling, and a deep understanding of what judges want.

That’s where we come in.

 Why Blue Train Marketing?

We don’t just write award entries – we know how they’re judged. 

Our founder and CEO, Jeff Banks, is a judge for the PayTech Awards Europe and USA, giving us direct insight into what makes an entry stand out (and what ends up in the ‘no’ pile). We incorporate this insider perspective into every submission we write – and trust us, it makes a difference. 

We’ve helped clients shortlist and win major awards run by an array of industry bodies, including our partners at Fintech Futures and Fintech Finance. 
Whether it’s the Banking Tech Awards, the PayTech Awards, or a niche industry prize, we’ll help you frame your story in a way that gets noticed. 

We helped an esteemed BaaS provider stand out in a crowded payments market by crafting a year-long awards strategy – researching categories, capturing real customer insights, and submitting targeted entries.

The result?

Multiple shortlists and six major wins, including the UK FinTech, PayTech, and Banking Tech Awards, boosting credibility and visibility across the industry.
