Thank you to the readers of Blank Slate Media’s 6 award-winning newspapers and all our online readers who voted, making this the biggest and most competitive contest yet in nine straight years.
Your response was overwhelming; this year we had over 80,000 votes, a 60% increase over last year.
This was aided by contest candidates who used many of the tools they employ to grow their businesses to campaign for votes.
The results reflect a diverse outcome. We had 12 different groups and 249 categories with businesses vying for the title of “the best.”
Nassau County is home to many successful entrepreneurs, health-care providers, educators, business owners, restaurants, service providers, venues and more.
It’s very exciting to see these businesses and professionals thriving and finding success with new ways to reach and maintain customers, accounts and clients. It is a true testament to their desire to continue to provide exceptional service despite what challenges they are facing.
We hope you enjoyed being a part of the voting process; your participation made our contest a huge success once again.
This year, we are highlighting the Winners, Runners-Up and Honorable Mentions…all worthy of the recognition. We hope you will use this section as a reference guide when you are looking for something new.
Congratulations again to all.
