If you've ever hosted a bundle, run a summit, swapped freebies with another creator, guested on a podcast, sponsored a newsletter, or built an affiliate program, gifted membership, or a blog worth reading — I want you in this. I'm launching The Collab Awards, a brand-new, completely free contest that celebrates people in the creator and coaching space who are genuinely good at working together. Not the biggest following. Not the flashiest launch. The people who show up, collaborate well, and make the people they work with actually want to work with them again. Here's how it works: There are 17 awards across 8 categories — Bundles, Summits, Freebie Swaps, Podcasts, Newsletters, Affiliate Programs, Blogs, and Programs/Memberships. Some categories have a "Best Host" and "Most Organized Host" award (judged on how well someone ran their collab), and several also have a "Favorite" award, which isn't about who hosted it — it's the community's pick for their favorite bundle, summit, podcast, or newsletter of all time. It's a two-phase contest: Phase 1 — Nominate (Oct 19 – Nov 6): Anyone can nominate anyone, including themselves, and the top nominees in each category become finalists. Phase 2 — Vote (Nov 16 – Dec 4): The community votes on the finalists to pick the winners. Winners announced: Dec 14 Winners get a real feature written about them on Roster's blog, the opportunity to write their own guest post for Roster, and a "2026 Collab Awards Winner" badge they can use on their own site, socials, or email signature, and a special feature in the Roster directory all 2026. So, if you've hosted something, joined something, or just have someone in mind who deserves recognition for how they collaborate, get ready to nominate them (or yourself, seriously, don't be shy): If you want more info, https://www.thecollabawards.com/promote Also, check out the sponsorship spots and get your name written all over this.
