The Australian Influencer Marketing Council (AiMCO) has opened its call for entries for the 2024 AiMCO Awards, which recognise the year’s best and brightest in Australia’s influencer marketing industry.

The AiMCO Most Influential Award Creator Award and the AiMCO Most Influential Industry Award, the top awards of the night, will be chosen from the winners across the industry and creator categories. These awards are presented for outstanding work in influencer marketing, regardless of social media platform, or scale of the campaign.

“We are excited to put the official callout for entries for our 2024 AiMCO Awards. This year has already been exceptional for the Australian influencer community, with an incredible number of campaigns and partnerships. I’d encourage all of the nation’s influencer marketing industry to get involved in this year’s awards – it’s a fantastic opportunity to showcase their work and celebrate their efforts, as well as raise the industry as a whole,” said AiMCO managing director, Patrick Whitnall.

“The AiMCO Awards are now in their fourth year, and every year, the industry has just gone from strength-to-strength. We’ve added three new award categories this year to reflect the increase in influencer podcasts and gifting campaigns, as well as the growing number of talent agencies and their role in developing both successful creators and brand campaigns. We can’t wait to celebrate another landmark year for our industry”.

Comedy duo Lachlan and Austin Macfarlane, aka The Macfarlane Brothers, took out the top gong in 2023, being recognised as the most influential creators, as well as best comedy and entertainment creator for the year.

“Winning the Most Influential 2023 Creator Award was an incredible honour for us. The international exposure this award brought to our profile has opened up creative and business opportunities we never thought were possible a year ago,” the brothers said.

“It’s easy to lose sight of the reach that our self-produced work has, so being recognised for the time and effort we invest in our craft was incredibly gratifying”.

“The AiMCO Awards highlight the creativity, passion and innovation that drives influencer marketing. It was a huge honour to be acknowledged alongside creatives who inspire us. For us, this award signified that we were part of a community that encourages excellence and integrity in this industry”.

Nominations for the 2024 AiMCO Awards open on Wednesday, July 31, and close on Friday, September 27. Finalists will be released in December 2024, with winners announced at the award ceremony, set to be held in February next year.

Entry to the 2024 awards is via online written submission. All entries are judged by a AiMCO members, marketers and industry experts. Nominations are open to AiMCO members and non-members.
