Campaign Results: Representing 20% of the score

The Dragons of Asia is a results-driven Award Programme. However, we are aware that in some cases, it is not possible to include actual results. In this Section we need a response as to how the Campaign was deemed to be successful.

If actual results (sales, market share) are confidential, quantify them, index them, benchmark them, or consider how else results could be reported. We will be selecting Judges to match Entry Categories, so they will have Industry knowledge. If you are able to include results, but require them to be seen only by Judges, include this request in the Results Section of your Entry.
