Deadline for Retail Stars nominations extended to March 26
This year's list sponsored by AmericasMart
-- Home Accents Today, 3/11/2010 1:00:00 AM
The deadline to nominate stores for Home Accents Today's50 Retail Stars list for 2010 has been extended to March 26. This annual feature publishes in the May issue and recognizes independent retailers who are creative in their merchandising, successful at what they do, contributing to their communities and/or distinguishing themselves from the competition. They excel at innovative marketing and advertising efforts, head-turning in-store displays and out-of-the-box business ideas.
Once again, AmericasMart Atlanta is sponsoring the 50 Retail Stars feature. In the introduction to last year's list, AmericasMart President Jeff Portman described the list as a showcase of retailers who "continue to press onward with conviction, creativity and an irrepressible will to win."
The retailers selected are listed in our May issue, of which the honorees will receive both print and jpg copies that may be reproduced or used on store Web sites and in marketing materials. We'll also send a certificate and formatted press release that can be shared with local media channels.
We also mine the Retail Stars list all year long for editorial sources, monthly retail profiles and special events at market.
To nominate your store, complete and submit the online form at http://bit.ly/Star10 by Friday, March 26, 2010.
This is not a ranking, and is not based on sales volume. A retailer may only be named to the list once, so please do not submit a nomination form if your store has been honored as a Retail Star in a prior/past year.
If you have any questions, contact Group Research Manager Dana French at 336-605-1091 or email dfrench@reedbusiness.com. If you would like to submit images of your store, email Retail Editor Susan Dickenson at susan.dickenson@reedbusiness.com.
We would love your feedback!
