Editor's Note

 

By T. Craig Bott

 

Ever wonder what it would be like to be an award winner — say the winner of one of those business awards given to the "Best," "Fastest," "Biggest" or "Most Explosive" or … well you get the picture.

There seems to be such a proliferation of local, state and national entrepreneurial awards that it's difficult to keep track of them. And it's even more difficult to decide what the real benefit of this kind of recognition is to you the entrepreneur and your business.

In this issue, we give you some relevant insight into this topic. You'll get a chance to hear from past award winners and learn whether they feel it benefited their business and entrepreneurial careers. And you'll get some tips on how to select the recognition that will most help your business as well as how best to leverage the award so you maximize its full benefit to you.

And of course we've packed this issue with a number of other interesting and relevant articles — all designed to help you in your entrepreneurial effort.

As this year ends, all of us at Launch hope that your entrepreneurial dreams have been achieved and will continue to be the source of your inspiration into the coming year.

Our best to you all,
