I was a finalist in So magazine's Lifestyle awards and it meant such a lot - it gave me a boost, made me feel valued by you all and also gave the blog and Tonbridge some extra exposure (thanks once again to everyone that nominated and voted for me). Awards are really important to all businesses - they are a pat on the back, a marketing opportunity and a chance for businesses, large and small, to really think about where they excel.
We're approaching Christmas and the end of another year - it's flown by hasn't it! It's been a great year for Tonbridge and the Eat Around Tonbridge blog.
The deadline for nominations for the Kent Life Food & Drink Awards is fast approaching - it's Monday 7th August.
Name that tune and artist! Awards really help to boost a business - it's recognition from patrons and peers; it spreads the word which helps to generate revenue for, not only the winner, but other local businesses too; and it's just a good old fashioned pat on the back, a gold star for everyone involved in making those doors open every day.
7 weeks to go until what I hear you ask? The start of the summer holidays? The end of the summer holidays? No, something very important for our High Street - the deadline for submission of your Kent Life and Kent on Sunday Food & Drink Award nomination!!!!
