In January 2023, Landscape Ontario member Niagara Outdoor won five Awards of Excellence, including the Casey Van Maris Award for the project with the highest marks for execution of unique and innovative design.
Two days after the awards ceremony, they posted a carousel on Instagram that received a lot of engagement. Here are some tips to help you show off your success on social:
1. Start with faces
Show who is behind all the work you do and grab people’s attention with a smile or a cheerful team shot in front of the awards backdrop.
2. Show the hardware
Show your award(s) on the next photo, and consider having another close-up photo highlighting your big accomplishments.
3. Caption
4. Comment
Take the time to answer people congratulating you — even better if you can throw in a few personalized words.
More tips
Add a wide-angle photo of the event (people at a table, clapping, hugging), or anything lively to connect with the community.
Add a beautiful picture of one awarded project. You can prepare this one in advance.
