How do I know if I'm eligible for entry?
The rules for eligibility are posted here under the rules & conditions, the criteria for each category are posted here. All information is also available in the current edition of Business to Business Life magazine and published regularly in the Archant newspaper titles.
Does my business have to be a registered company?
The awards are open to all types of business including sole traders, registered companies and partnerships.
Which categories should I enter?
The criteria for each category are posted on this website. If you are unsure which category is most applicable then apply for more than one (give yourself a better chance of success). Remember to tailor your entry form to the category you are entering. If you only enter one category and the other entrants in that category are strong you have a lesser chance of being a finalist.
Entries are accepted now until Friday 3rd October 2008. Short-listed applicants for the final may be requested to supply additional material or allow members of the judging panel to visit their premises after this deadline.
How long will the entry form take to complete?
We suggest that entries are not more than 500 words long so however much time it takes to write this much. This is the only opportunity to impress the judges so it is worth spending as much time as you can spare. If you wish to attach testimonials or photocopies of certificates etc you are more than welcome to do so and we would recommend you to.
Where do I send my completed application form to?
Completed entries should be attached to an Entry form and sent to Marketing Department at Media House, 539 High Road, Ilford, Essex, IG1 1UD to arrive no later than Friday 3rd October 2008.
Can I complete an entry form on-line?
An entry form (in pdf format) will be available soon on this site to be printed off, an online form is also being set up to enable people to enter online (available shortly), please contact EMAIL if you have any questions.
Can I change or withdraw my entry?
If you submit your entry early you are welcome to retrieve it for alterations and additions or remove it from consideration.
Can I nominate another business?
Yes you can and we would suggest you nominate successful businesses in your supply chain (great marketing and customer relations).
I have nominated someone else, should I let them know?
You can if you want to, but we will telephone them to let them know they have been nominated. Make sure that your name and address is on the 'Entry Header' form in the Nominators section so that we can let them know who has nominated them. You may also be eligible for a prize for taking the time to nominate a business/company that is not yours.
