Hello,
can you give me an example of this? I would like to know roughly what it looks like.

Thank you for your email.
Please find below some of our general FAQ answers, hopefully this answers any questions you may have – if not, please feel free to contact me again.
The Business Excellence Awards are now in their 4th consecutive year. This is one of our most popular award programs as it highlights various businesses of different sizes and backgrounds on their outstanding achievements over the past 12 months.
The process began with the voting form being live on our website for just over 4 months. We sent out a notification to our 108,000 readers to inform them that voting was open and in addition we contacted over 700,000 various businesses worldwide, again informing them voting is open. In addition, we also posted a notification over various social media platforms to encourage the public to cast votes as and where they saw fit.
The nomination form is set to anonymous, this is purely for the fact that we seem to get a better response this way as people are more inclined to cast votes without leaving their personal information. They will have nominated you under a specific sector or industry which I am able to disclose at the next stage.
If you do wish to move onto the shortlist this will then begin our research stage. This is where our in-house research department will begin compiling a case study on your firm. They will search through various websites to gather information on who you are, the services you provide, maybe even client testimonials if they can find them and further information to help support your nomination.
In addition, I will send over a brief questionnaire for supporting evidence – please note the questionnaire isn’t mandatory as we fully understand you are very busy, hence we have an in-house research department.
Once the case study is finalised this then gets passed to the judging panel who will review, discuss and deliberate over each case study individually and ultimately decide who deserves to win an award.
You will then be notified by myself in regards to the outcome. As stated in my previous message there are no mandatory costs to be part of the process or even to win.
As stated that are no costs to accept your nomination or be on the shortlist. In addition, there are no mandatory costs to win an award either. If you do go on to win an award we will have various packages to celebrate your success however these will start from the free of charge option upwards.

Hello,
Can you give me some more info about what you're offering? Specifically, how does it apply to our business? How can we use this?
David Barber

Hi David,
The email is to inform you that we have received a nomination for yourself and your company via our online voting form.
In terms of how this applies to your company and how you can use it - it’s a huge compliment to receive a nomination - as on the voting form people cannot select a company they specially have the type the details of the company they wish to nominate. Now this shows that you have been very successful over the past year - and more - as people wish to recognise your company for the work and services you provide!
Moving forward, if you accept the nomination this will then put you in the running of potentially going on to win an award - now what's better than being recognised for your hard work and your achievements? If you were lucky enough to go on to win this would not only boost your brand recognition, but it would also give you the chance to reach out to new potential clients and have proof of your high standards of work because of your award.
I hope this is helpful.
Kind Regards,
Laura Hunter - Assistant Awards Manager
