Christopher Hurn Nominated For 2012 Small Business Influencer Awards
Christopher Hurn, CEO and Cofounder of Mercantile Capital Corporation, has been nominated for a 2012 Small Business Influencer Award in the category of "Small Business Expert."
- Orlando, FL (1888PressRelease) July 26, 2012 - The Small Business Influencer Awards honor those who are influential to small businesses in North America, through the products, services, knowledge, information or support they provide to the small business market. The Awards are designed to recognize the unsung heroes of small businesses - those who support and encourage entrepreneurs and small business owners, and help them achieve success and stay successful.
Says Anita Campbell, CEO of Small Business Trends and one of the co-founders of the Awards along with Ramon Ray of SmallBizTechnology.com, "Influencers are those who play crucial roles in the small business ecosystem, but who often are in the background. Many of the nominees are themselves small business owners, entrepreneurs or small businesses. Being nominated distinguishes a nominee from competitors, and in that sense can lead to competitive advantage. The Awards are also intended to provide an added boost in motivation and morale for a nominees' employees and staff that can make a big difference in results."
Voting continues through August 5th, and votes can be cast at bit.ly/small-biz-influencer.
