Today didn't start out like a typical day in our life. Recently our business was nominated for the 2009 Small Business of the Year Award by Lone Star College System. Part of the nomination process was for us to submit three letters of recommendation by our customers and complete a lengthy essay questionnaire outlining our business success, our future expansion, and our community involvement. Once we completed that process, we were informed that we were one of the 15 finalists of this award. Our next step was to participate in a video taped interview . This interview will be made into a 90 second presentation and shown at the Awards Dinner on November 19th, along with the videos of the other finalists. Paul was chosen as the designated "star" of our video. Here's the pics of him this morning in the studio getting ready. What a handsome guy!
The next step of the process is a Luncheon given on October 22nd. At this time they will take publicity photos and honor all the nominees. Since we were only allowed to send one person from our company, this event will be attended by me!
Our last event will be the Awards Dinner held on November 19th, where five award winners will be announced. This is a very prestigious award and we are excited to have been nominated for it. It means alot to our small business to be recognized for our hard work and community involvement. Cross your fingers.....we'll keep you posted!
