JUDGES
A very
special thanks to the judges for their hard work in finding such
high quality marketing strategies amongst the great businesses who
entered.
Joy
Sokat of Elite Shopping Tours as the original Micro Business of
the Year and has since assisted with judging awards that I have
organised.
Dr
Greg Chapman of Empower Business Solution was the judge this
year for the Telstra awards and was a valuable team
member
Jacquie
Wise of Wise Ways has
assisted with judging many awards and her insight makes her an
excellent assessor of entries.
Ben
Angel of Nationwide
Networking was the 'young blood' of our judges. Ben was able to
bring a new dimension to the judging of these awards
Barbara
Gabogrecan of Home Based Business
Australia - herself a winner of 7 of the Australian Gift of the
Year Awards and judge of many awards (including the Innovic 'Next
Big Thing' awards; the Victorian Government training awards; the
International MCEI Marketing awards; and the Micro Business Awards)
has lso instigated and run a number of awards - was the key pin to
this panel.
And a
special thanks to Peter O'Connor of MBN Solutions who looked
after the judges and kept a tally of the scores!
NOMINATORS
It is
always terrific when you get a business associate to nominate you
for an award. The judges were so impressed with one such
nomination, that they decided to acknowledge Cheyenne Brae
for her well thought out and caring nomination.
WORKERS
It is not
often that the hard workers behind the scenes get recognition. But
apart from putting ia a lot of work, they also often miss out on
the fun of the evening because they are so busy. Jennifer
McQueen and Kelvin Eldridge were two such people. I am
sure that everyone was delighted with the professional way they
managed your registration....and MCEI want to say a very 'special
thanks'.
Jack
Wu must also be thanked
for helping to set up the room, but especially for organising the
packing up afterwards! Belinda
Rozycki and Vivianne
Italiano are to be thanked for making sure that all
certificates went to the right people!
Jillian
Ferguson provided all of the
graphics for the banner, programmes, and certificates, while
Damien Battersby organised the printing of the Programmes
and assisted Peter O'Connor with handing out the
prizes.
These are
very special members of MCEI and we are extremely grateful for
their participation and loyalty.
