But\u00a0<strong>this<\/strong>\u00a0particular award\u00a0feels rather special so I hope you\u2019ll indulge us one more time.<\/p>\n<p>On October 20, the No Brainer team is heading to our nation\u2019s capital city after we we made the final ten for the Micro Business of the Year title at the British Small Business Awards.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re up against some pretty stiff competition for the award, but win or lose, just to be shortlisted is incredible recognition for us, especially when you consider that any business in the UK with between two and nine employees was eligible.<\/p>\n<p>The ceremony itself is at the\u00a0Grand Connaught Rooms, close to Covent Garden.<\/p>\n<p>Before that,\u00a0we\u2019re up against\u00a0two other North West companies for the Business Start Up title at the Cheshire Business Awards. The winner of that one will be announced on October 7 at a ceremony inside Chester Cathedral.<\/p>\n<p>And in November we\u2019re up for\u00a0Outstanding Small Public Relations Consultancy at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cipr.co.uk\/content\/awards-events\/pride-awards\/north-west\">Chartered Institute of Public Relations North West Pride Awards<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>National award recognition<\/h4>\n<p>We\u2019re pretty chuffed to be on any final list but to be recognised nationally is really quite a big deal. Even\u00a0Ben Lobel, the editor of SmallBusiness.co.uk which runs the awards, said it\u2019s a significant group to be in.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cThis is a critically important category representing, in terms of business size, the bulk of our readership at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/smallbusiness.co.uk\/\">SmallBusiness.co.uk<\/a>. The companies shortlisted have all demonstrated impressive revenues and an approach to their sector that sets them apart from their peers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No Brainer co-founder Lee Cullen said: \u201cOver the last year we\u2019ve enjoyed award recognition both locally and regionally. But to be in the running for a British Small Business Awards title really puts us on the national stage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re so proud to be representing our industry in these prestigious awards.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo be included on a shortlist like this is a reward for the hard work we\u2019ve put in over the past year,\u201d added fellow director and co-founder Gary Jenkins.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome of the other companies on the shortlist are really well established so to be included shows how much we\u2019ve grown in such a short space of time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The British Small Business Awards is the leading celebration of the UK\u2019s small business sector, recognising the nation\u2019s best sole traders, micro businesses and small companies\u00a0\u2013 as well as the services providers and advisers that support them.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the awards, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/britishsmallbusinessawards.co.uk\/\">http:\/\/britishsmallbusinessawards.co.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s fair to say that PR isn\u2019t easy to define.
