SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESS
WE DO IT
WHY ENTER? - WHY BE A SPONSOR
Why Enter?
People are drawn to award winning businesses and trust them - being shortlisted or winning gives credibility and re-assures existing clients/customers that they picked the right company to do business with. They can lead to increased sales/profits, boost team morale and give an edge over competitors. These exciting new awards are free and easy to enter.
Someone will win and it could be you!
Why be a Sponsor?
The awards recognise excellence, promote innovation and give sponsors a chance to be visibly seen supporting their business community whilst promoting their business and taking advantage of the networking opportunities. They are able to meet new contacts and potentially achieve new business and at the same time enhance their credibility.​
​
Why Enter?
People are drawn to 'award winning' businesses sometimes choosing them over others for having been awarded that title. Winning an award or being shortlisted can raise your business's profile an attract new customers/clients. It boosts team morale and reaffirms with existing clients you are a good business to deal with.
Its a free and easy promotional opportunity that could pay dividends.
Nominating a local business is a way to show your support for the ones you think worthy of an award- remember though it is not the number of nominations that make a winner but the quality i.e. the reasons you give for that business really standing out ahead of its competitors.
