From Ad Age:
With adversity often comes opportunity, and Ad Age’s Small Agency Awards for 2021 will honor small, independent agencies that showed their strength and creativity by producing innovative and exciting work despite the overwhelming hurdles presented by the pandemic. The challenges that resulted from working remotely, production restrictions, client uncertainties and more only served to rally the small agency community, which displayed a nimbleness and willingness to pivot that in many cases outshone their big-agency brethren.
These are stories we want to hear for our Small Agency Awards. We want to know how your small agency adapted, survived and thrived during a challenging year. Given those hardships, while the entry forms ask for revenue figures and will still be taken into consideration, the bottom line will matter less this year than your creative product, your strategic thinking, your outcomes for clients and your responsiveness to your employees.
Full details about eligibility, categories, entry costs, etc. can be found here.
Each year, the Ad Age Small Agency Awards uncover and honor small, independent agencies that are producing innovative and exciting work. These teams strategize and execute groundbreaking ideas to compete with work done by some of advertising’s oldest, largest and most sought-after partners.
The competition is tough, but the reward is big. Finalists will be notified mid-June and winners are announced and celebrated at our Small Agency Conference & Awards, to be held in July 2020.
The final deadline to enter is April 23, 2020 at 5pm EDT

The Ad Age Small Agency Conference, now going into its 10th year, offers this all-too-often underserved community a place to share the ideas and strategies, pain points and joys that are unique to small agencies of all kinds — those that specialize in creative, media, events, PR, digital, data and more — within the U.S. and around the world.
Just a quick reminder that this Friday, May 22nd, is the deadline for entries into the Ad Age Small Agency of the Year competition. More details are available in the original post.
