We are absolutely delighted that we won New Business of the Year at the Ely Standard East Cambridgeshire Business Awards!
The awards were presented on October 28th at a glittering award ceremony at the stunning Ely Cathedral. We were finalists for two awards – New Business of the Year and Women in Business.
We were happy enough to even get through to the finals, but totally thrilled to bits to win a sparkly trophy and voted New Business of the Year!
This is what was read out by host Mark Peters as we tried to walk in high heels and dodge the paparazzi to collect our award:
“Jo Evans started Emerald Frog Marketing in June 2010 from their offices in Ely. They provide a “full” marketing service working with a range of SME clients. They combine resourcefulness and knowledge to deliver cost effective solutions designed to meet both the needs and pockets of their clients. The Judges were particularly impressed by their forward thinking attitude, and in particular how they market to start-up businesses.”
More than happy with that!
We were also over the moon that we shared the night with one of our customers, The Copier Warehouse, who won the Small Business of the Year award. We designed and built their website for them last year and owner, Debra Jordan, told us she has seen her enquiries TRIPLE with her new website. The Copier Warehouse are also converting 75% of those leads into sales. This has helped result in a massive increase in sales over the past 12 months. So, if you wonder whether you should be investing in a new website, well there’s hard proof as to what it can do for your business!
Here’s an unofficial snap from the night (Jo is in the middle)
Gonna get us a mantelpiece here at The Frogplex. Too right.
