There’s not one person who doesn’t like an award. If there is a business owner in Hampshire or Surrey that would disagree, please reach out to me! Hampshire business awards have real kudos.
Many business owners are re-purposing their messages so their marketing is relevant for the new times that we live in. Shops, offices and markets are re-opening across Hampshire and Surrey, and there will he a big effort to get the economy moving again. That’s not to forget that some businesses will not survive and a short, sharp recession is certain, before the steep upturn can begin. Anyway, back to the subject of awards.
In the clamour to create standout marketing, many businesses will make claims about their products and services. These may or may not be true or verifiable. What matters more is to remember an old addage: What someone else says about you, is far more convincing than anything you can say about yourself.
And so, the message in this blog is to remember how valuable awards can be in building a credible marketing message for your business. Here in the Hampshire / Surrey area, we enjoy a thriving economy and are lucky to be in an affluent part of the country. There is an awful lot of business support, including organisations that provide opportunities for companies to showcase their work.
