2012-2013 GABBY Award Nominations

It's time for the Fifth Annual GABBY Awards, which celebrate the best use of the REALTOR® Party Hub/Convio to mobilize, communicate and educate NAR members in support of the REALTOR® Party.

We will give out the GABBY's this year at our annual Best Practices Luncheon during the NAR Annual Convention in San Fransisco. You can register to attend the luncheon here.

This is your opportunity to earn well-deserved recognition for your advocacy campaigns, newsletters, RPAC online fundraising, events and GOTV work. So look back over your work the past year and tell the story about how these tools help you deepen your member engagement. The basic rule of thumb to remember is that nominations will only be accepted for campaigns that used the actual tool - so an event campaign needs to have used the Convio event module and an RPAC campaign needed to use the online fundraising module.  Now that we are teaching you how to do great campaign work at the Campaign Management classes we just know you have amazing examples of your GOTV and campaign work to share.

Here is how it works:

1. You can nominate yourself or nominate a peer.
2. You can nominate in as many categories as are applicable. You can nominate yourself multiple times in the same category. But if you do you can siphon off votes. So pick your strongest and go with it!
3. Nominations will close on October 11, 2013.
4. Three nominations will be chosen in each category by special guest judges.
4. Online voting will commence on October 14. This is your chance to vote for the winners in each category.
5. The winners that you select in each category will be announced at luncheon on November 7. Please RSVP!
6. See prior year's winners.
