Why AMEC Matters

The judges said: “Smoking Gun stands out for its insight and ambition, earning recognition for excellence in communications planning, research and evaluation.”

In our industry, creative ideas are easy to come by. Proven business impact is much harder. That is why we are incredibly proud of our nine global AMEC Effectiveness Awards.

Run by the International Association for the Measurement and Evaluation of Communication, the AMEC Awards are widely regarded as the global gold standard for PR. They are notoriously brutal to win.

AMEC judges look at the cold, hard data. They demand proof of real-world business outcomes – like direct sales, market share, and shifted perceptions. Our wins prove that our creatively courageous storytelling delivers undeniable commercial power.
