So thrilled to see all of our hard work out in the wild, along with so much appreciation and respect for my co-founders Birnur Aral and Rachel Rothman, who have been right there with me every step of the way to make the Best of the Year Awards reveal a huge success. So much more to come! 🚀
Hello LinkedIn world! Please join us in congratulating + celebrating the winners of the first-of-its-kind Best of the Year™️ Awards. 🏆 Winners, YOU EARNED IT! 🏆 ✅ 53 standout recipients this year ✅ Rigorously assessed by analysts, independent expert judges, real consumers ✅ No popularity contests or public voting to sway the system ✅ Only deep real-world evaluation and hands-on testing ✅ Credible, independent recognition consumers can trust Plus! So. Many. Categories. We're celebrating honorees across all the areas consumers care so much about: beauty, personal care, home, food, parenting, toys, tech, travel, wellness, and more. We know it's harder than ever to cut through the noise in such a crowded, fragmented, fake-news-driven world. And consumers face endless search results, AI answers, fake reviews, unverified recommendations and thousand of brands all fighting for their attention... and dollars. If you work with a brand that's committed to showing up with quality, purpose, impact and real-world usefulness, it can be very frustrating when your message doesn't get through. You feel it. All day. Every day. And we feel you. With the Best of the Year Awards, we're here to be your media partner and champion. Once you're in our winner's circle, we'll work tirelessly to share your story with our growing audience as we work to build an ecosystem of trust consumers can rely on. Because at Best of the Year Media, we take testing and making recommendations very seriously. It's not about gaming the system or Google search. It's about recognizing and celebrating merit-based excellence, helping quality stand out, and helping consumers feel confident in their decisions. One consumer in our Bestie community put it this way: “I’m so grateful to have humans back in my recommendations feed.” We couldn’t agree more. ❤️ See all 53 winners → https://lnkd.in/gfbHm7M7 Read the official announcement → https://lnkd.in/gYCJRnzU And finally, to our judges, testers, and the brands who put their submissions forward for evaluation: Thank you! This is your moment, too. 🎉 #BestOfTheYear #BestOfTheYearAwards #ProductTesting #ConsumerInsights #Awards #ConsumerTrust Laurie Jennings Birnur Aral Rachel Rothman
