CRN Sales and Marketing Awards: DEADLINE TODAY

The deadline expires at 5pm today! Don't miss out!

First of all, have you heard of the CRN Sales and Marketing Awards?

They were launched last year to reward individual and team success in the channel and also as an excuse to have a damn good party in the Summer.

However it is worrying how many people are not aware of the deadline looming! It really is only round the corner! The deadline is Friday 22 March - please don't miss out.

On a related note - I was very pleased to meet with the new UK managing director of Ingram Micro Brent McCarty, recently.

He was very positive about his new role and his plans for the company going forward, which was a nice thing to hear. Lord knows we have enough negative stuff to contend with from the national press at the moment.

One thing he said, which should resonate with a few people is that he wants to shout about Ingram's successes more.

If you are doing well - why shouldn't you share your success with the industry? There is nothing wrong with being proud of winning a great deal, having a happy workforce or executing a strategy to perfection.

We genuinely want to hear these good news stories and successes here at CRN, and believe they should be rewarded accordingly.

And that leads me nicely back to the CRN Sales & Marketing Awards - there is just TODAY left to submit an entry.

Just from speaking to people I know so many have something great to shout about, and there really is a category for everyone in these awards, which celebrate individual and team success.

And it is all celebrated at the official awards evening, which is taking place at the Lancaster London hotel on 19 June.

Don't miss out on winning one of these awards - they are fast becoming as sought after as their older sibling - the Channel Awards.

Best of luck and I look forward to reading them all!
