This morning, SEMMA was pleased to host our information event ‘Guide to Entering Business Awards’ facilitated by fellow member Ray Keefe, Managing Director of Successful Endeavours. Entering business awards can provide a range of benefits for businesses, including increased credibility, enhanced reputation, and opportunities for growth and expansion. Awards can also help businesses stand out from the competition, attract new customers, investors, and partners, and recognize their achievements and contributions to the industry.
As a manufacturer, Ray shared his journey and process of entering and winning around 50 industry and general business awards, including major awards. The session was designed to provide valuable insights and opportunities for business owners and entrepreneurs, helping members to understand the application process, stand out from the competition, and ultimately increase their chances of success.
During the presentation, Ray discussed the key advantages of attending an information session, including learning about the award criteria, gaining insight into the application process, increasing your chances of success, and boosting your credibility. He also shared his experience of entering and winning awards, providing practical tips and strategies for submitting a successful application.
SEMMA would like to extend our thanks to Ray for facilitating the presentation and sharing his valuable experience. As a treat for attendees, the presentation slides were provided for reference post-event.
