Congratulations! TO ALL WHO WON!

Welcome to the 2025 edition of Spencer Media Group’s People’s Choice. We are proud once again to award the great businesses, organizations, institutions, and people of Northwest Iowa with these awards for the sixth straight year. A special thanks to Go Gutters & Go Foam It! for working with us and sponsoring the contest.

Spencer Media Group’s goal has always been to foster unmatched listener loyalty by producing the highest quality on-air, interactive and event products possible. In addition, we provide a comprehensive product set of effective marketing solutions for local and national advertisers looking to reach consumers in Northwest Iowa. SMG People’s Choice has been a great extension of these goals, and we are proud of the voter turnout and engagement from local businesses.

SMG People’s Choice had over 815 businesses, organizations, and individuals competing to be named in the top two spots of 164 categories.

During our voting period, we had over 113,000 votes cast— a true testament to how customers, fans, and friends feel about their favorite local businesses and the pride they have for Northwest Iowa.

Producing a contest this size takes a dedicated local team and committed businesses. They, along with all our advertisers, made this possible.

We could not be more proud to salute and pay tribute to the great businesses that were voted the best in their individual categories. Thank you to all the folks who took the time to vote. We encourage you to explore SRGPeoplesChoice.com and engage with our winners. Some may be familiar, and some may be new to you. All will welcome your business. Please make sure to congratulate them for being voted SMG People’s Choice!

The Go Gutters Difference

Not only do we run 5 inch and 6 inch seamless gutter machines, we also own elbow and downspout machines, which helps bring savings to our customers. We also take our left over scraps and recycle them into new elbows. This process not only has almost completely eliminated our wasted aluminum but also cardboard boxes that used to be thrown away.
