90% of the awards entries I write reach award finals, with 88% going on to receive and award. Giving my clients a distinct advantage.

Approached correctly, business awards are a powerful tool to drive business growth, build teams and lead to greater success.

How I can help you to win a business award:

  1. Award review service - if you have entered awards but not been successful in the past, I can review past award entries with you. Helping you to understand the often-simple changes needed to achieve future and on-going awards success.

  2. Help to develop and establish the right award-winning strategy - including how to identify and select the right awards for your business, plus the planning and resources needed to make the most of any award from preparation to submission, finalist to winning.

  3. Awards writing service - help in writing, evidencing and preparing your award submission from start to finish, including presentation preparation to judges if required.

  4. Awards training workshops for your business - transfering valuable knowledge to your teams and developing your award writing skills in-house.

  5. Awards training and workshops to support awards events - from introductory workshops to focussed awards training. Perfect for award organisers, associations and their members to increase both the quality and volume of award submissions. Achieved through an improved understanding of your awards and the benefits for those looking to enter but unsure where to start, how to prepare and write a successful awards entry or how to improve their approach from previous award submissions.

Why work with me?

Because you want the very best opportunity to win a business award, and I understand that writing for awards is more than simply replying to a series of questions.

My experience as an awards entry writer, combined with my knowledge as a business advisor and ability as a business writer is a uniquely powerful combination. Enabling me to understand your business and the requirements of any award more fully, and interpreting this into powerful narrative, supported by strong evidence to reflect the very best of your business to judges and awards panels.

Experience Counts

I have been successfully writing and helping businesses to prepare and develop winning award entries for over 30 years. Experience as a specialist business awards writer that I leverage for you across local, regional, industry and national awards including the highly prestigious The King’s Awards for Enterprise.

Discrete and Confidential

All client information and discussions are treated as Confidential by default. Each award being about you, with nomination and awards success a reflection on your business, not mine. That’s why I don’t take advantage of your awards success as a platform for self-promotion on my part and why you won’t see client logos and lists of awards success on this website. My confidential and discrete approach added to my abilities as a business advisor, mentor and awards writer allows us to delve deeper - building a higher level of trust and understanding that can only work to enhance your award entries and awards success.

A Different Approach

Unlike many with a factory process supported by teams of writers and journalists, each business I work with receives my personal attention and focus. Within this:

  • I will not write competing awards, pitching one client against another.

  • I limit the number of awards I write each year.

The fact that 90% of award entries I write are nominated and shortlisted for award finals, with 88% going on to receive an award bears testimony to a proven approach and level of success that differentiates me from many others.

The whole process of preparing and entering an award can help you reflect and focus on your business. Giving you a greater understand of core strengths and opportunities that already exist. Something, that can directly help you to improve your business, irrespective of the outcome of your awards entry.
