Time is running out to nominate outstanding businesses in the 2019 St George Local Business awards.
Nominating a business that offers exceptional service or products is a great way for customers or clients to show their appreciation for the efforts of owners and their staff.
Precedent Productions managing director (and Local Business Awards founder) Steve Loe, said one of the best way customers could show their gratitude for exceptional service and products was to nominate their favourite businesses for a St George Local Business Award.
‘‘We all say thank you after we’ve been served in a shop or other business,’’ Mr Loe said.
‘‘But nominating a business that offers outstanding service is a way of thanking those people in a tangible way that can make a very big difference to their lives.
‘‘Numerous times over the years, we’ve been told by Local Business Awards nominees how much it has meant to them that customers or clients have made the effort to reward their efforts by nominating them.
‘‘Being a finalist or winner in the awards also brings the benefits of publicity and even additional business, as people have told us that they view a Local Business Award finalist certificate or winner’s trophy as a sign that they will receive exceptional goods or services there.’’
Mr Loe said a huge number of nominations had already been received, especially online through the Precedent Productions website.
‘‘The St George community has enormous respect for its local businesses for its local businesses,’’ he said.
‘‘Every finalist in the Local Business Awards receives a certificate, while category winners receive a trophy.
‘‘These certificates and trophies are always displayed with great pride in shops and offices, and business people have told me that that customers and clients are impressed to know that they are dealing with an award-winning business."
The awards are only possible thanks to the support of major sponsors: Georges River Council and NOVA Employment and support sponsors: Ramsgate RSL.
