In addition to the standard nomination process, our nomination form provides an opportunity for the person nominating to tell us why they are nominating, adding that personal touch. Who doesn’t want to receive some positive feedback and comments about their efforts?
Let’s delve deeper into the benefits of nominating your favourite Wigan business for a Wigan Business Award.
Recognition and Prestige:
By nominating a business for one of our awards, you’re not only highlighting their achievements but also acknowledging their dedication and hard work. Recognising them as a nominee adds prestige to their brand and sets them apart from competitors. It’s a testament to their commitment to excellence and a validation of their efforts in serving the local Wigan community. Plus, the personal touch of receiving positive feedback from the nominator can further enhance their sense of pride and accomplishment and give them that well deserved, and sometimes much needed, virtual pat on the back.
Increased Visibility and Exposure:
Being nominated for a business for an award can significantly increase their visibility and exposure within the community and beyond. Awards generate buzz and attract attention from potential customers, partners, and investors. When businesses are recognised for their excellence, people take notice, leading to enhanced brand awareness and credibility. At Wigan Business Awards we personally email each and every one of our nominees. Included is a graphic they can share on their social media profiles, to further amplify their nomination. You have no idea what a simple like and share can do for a business’s visibility, and the best thing is – it costs you nothing to nominate.
Boost in Morale and Motivation:
Receiving a nomination is more than just an acknowledgment; it’s a morale booster for the entire team.
Picture receiving an email on a dreary Wednesday morning, informing you that you’ve been nominated for an award. Recognising and appreciating their efforts can profoundly boost morale and motivation. It instils a sense of pride and camaraderie among team members, inspiring them to continue striving for excellence. The positive feedback and comments shared by nominators serve as a source of encouragement and validation. Fuelling their passion to excel further and knowing their efforts aren’t going unnoticed.
Networking and Collaboration Opportunities:
Nominating them for an award opens doors to valuable networking and collaboration opportunities. It provides a platform for businesses to connect with other industry leaders, influencers, and stakeholders within their local business community. Networking at award ceremonies and events can lead to partnerships, collaborations, and new business ventures. Plus, attendees already have something in common to talk about.
Enhanced Credibility and Trust:
Awards serve as powerful endorsements of a business’s credibility and trustworthiness. Nominating them for an award enhances their reputation and builds trust with customers, suppliers, and stakeholders. It’s a stamp of approval that reassures customers of their quality and reliability. The personal testimonials shared by nominators add a human element to the business’s credibility, showcasing real-life experiences and interactions that further reinforce trust and confidence.
Nominating your favourite Wigan business for a Wigan Business Award is not only a gesture of appreciation but also a strategic decision that brings numerous benefits. From increased recognition and visibility to boosted morale and networking opportunities, the impact of a nomination goes beyond the accolade itself. With the added personal touch of receiving heartfelt testimonials from nominators, the experience becomes even more meaningful. So, take the opportunity to nominate a deserving business today and help them shine in the spotlight at Wigan Business Awards this November.
