CRN Sales and Marketing Awards shortlist - OUT TODAY!
Find out if you have made the cut in this year's shortlist
We can finally reveal the shortlist for the 2013 CRN Sales and Marketing Awards.
And a very fine list it is too. See below to find out if you have made it this year.
Some of the shortlists are longer than others because we had a record number of entries and have more than halved them, but the quality was so good we felt they deserved a chance at winning.
Congratulations to all our shortlisters.
The standard of entry was so high that those not making the shortlist this year should not despair. We hope you will try again in 2014.
