Preparing Your Entry for Small Business Awards
When you are entering small business awards you need to give yourself the best chances possible of winning. There are some simple (they appear so simple that they don’t need mentioning – but believe me, entrants can and do forget them!)

First of all, make sure you answer the question! As you write your content for each question, keep asking yourself – “does this information actually answer this specific question?” It is easy to get carried away and start bringing in irrelevant information that is perhaps better suited to another question.
Promotion For Small Business Awards
Award entrants and sponsors alike want to increase their ‘Top of Mind Awareness’ so MCEI makes sure they receive tons of promotion for the small business awards they run.
Some of the opportunities MCEI makes available for the small business awards are:-
* At functions there are Business bags they can put promotional product into;
* There are competitions where members can provide prizes and increase their list;
* MCEI distribute solo promotions where members have a full page promotion on the MCEI website and an email directing a data base of 4,000 to it via a special email;
