Tourism Awards Open for Entry

TOURISM AWARDS OPEN FOR ENTRY

The 2020/21 Dorset Tourism Awards are open for entry and businesses in Dorset (including Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch) are encouraged to start your submissions without delay.

Last year’s entrants summed up the benefits of entering the awards as increasing bookings, generating PR, helping with staff morale, retention and recruitment as well as getting free feedback on how their business could be improved. Watch the short video HERE to see what they say.

The awards are free to enter as they are supported by many sponsors. Clare Bushby, Managing Director of headline sponsors Clockwork Marketing says: “At Clockwork Marketing we’re proud to be headline sponsors of the Dorset Tourism Awards. For 25 years we’ve boosted hospitality bookings throughout the South West. Dorset is an English country fantasy come to life—a marketer’s dream. We’re excited to be far from the madding crowd and look forward to helping Dorset hospitality businesses thrive.”

Awards organiser Robin Barker says: “It’s always great to hear from entrants what a positive change the awards can bring.  To help everyone submit their best entry we are running a series of workshops across the South West and I look forward to seeing many businesses there.  Details can be found HERE. Our top tip is to start preparing now, giving yourself time to consider all categories and liaising with colleagues before clicking the SUBMIT button.”

All entries must be submitted online by 26 April but as Easter is coming up it is recommended that businesses get them in as soon as possible.

To start the process please take a look at the categories – then follow our tips at entering awards, there’s even a suggested schedule for you to follow.  Then follow the link to online entry here.
