Topic - Boost your Brand through Awards
Awards boost brand and business growth in a number of ways, opening doors to new contacts, clients, networks and opportunities. Used strategically, awards build your audience and authority and enhance marketing and PR activities.
In this session Emma will help you to identify the type of awards that will benefit your business and show you how to maximise the uplift from the process to boost your visibility and credibility.

Speaker
Emma Hewitt - Business Awards Adviser
She works with small business owners to build awards strategies - to boost confidence and visibility and business opportunities. She supports clients with finding awards, writing entries, re-purposing content and promoting their achievements.
Emma has been self-employed for 9 years - running a small business as a franchisee and supporting small businesses on a freelance basis, including managing an annual awards and conference for 5 years.
