Telstra Business Awards – Nominations now open!

Small and medium businesses are the unsung heroes of our economy, punching above their weight in terms of growth they provide to employment and to local communities across Australia.

For 20 years the Telstra Australian Business Awards have recognised the vital contribution of this sector to the national economy by publicly celebrating their achievements.

The 2012 Awards are open for nominations and entries and I am seeking support to encourage participation from deserving small and medium businesses from Bonner.

The awards help businesses to grow their world- their profile, their networks and their knowledge. Each entrant receives a free individual business health check, a 70-page individual report on their business that can help them identify growth opportunities and business improvements.

There are other benefits too from entering Australia’s most prestigious national business awards program including public accolades and a share in $500, 000 in cash and prizes. For many businesses, it’s a rare opportunity to reflect on their achievements and where they’re going. Many businesses have grown and prospered after being named Awards finalists and winners.
