The 25th annual Geelong Business Excellence Award is being launched on Tuesday 16 Feb 2010 at the Gordon Institute of TAFE.  The awards provide an excellent opportunity for local businesses to reap the benefits of their vision, determination and hard work by showcasing their businesses.  The Co-ordinators are currently calling for entries.
  • Some of the benefits of entering the awards include:
  • Chance to review how you are placed towards achieving our goals
  • Health check of your existing plans
  • Cost effective development of your business plan
  • Raise the profile of your business
  • Win new business opportunities
  • Promotional & publicity opportunities
 
When times are tough, better businesses continue to review their processes to ensure they prosper and survive.  Entering the awards provide an opportunity for you to have your processes and operations reviewed by independent judges.
The partners of LBW believe the awards are extremely important especially in current economic times and as a result are sponsors of the Tourism category.  We also have the privilege of having one of our partners as being a judge of the awards.
We encourage all businesses to enter these awards as they will only benefit from the experience. 
More information in relation to these awards are on the organizers website –  WWW.THECOMMUNICATORS.COM.AU  AND YOU CAN DOWNLOAD AN ENTRY BOOK AND A TEMPLATE TO START YOUR ENTRY.
 
WE STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU ATTEND A BRIEFING WORKSHOP AND DATES AND TIMES ARE ALSO ON THE WEBSITE.

The partners and staff would like to welcome you back from the holiday period. Just a reminder though, BASs are due 28 February 2010 for the December 2009 quarter. Please note, we do not get an extension past this date. Please send them in, if you have not already done so.
 
We also wish to remind those clients who have not yet provided us with their 2009 tax information, that lodgment dates will come around soon. Therefore, we suggest that you start getting your 2009 tax information ready for us asap.

LBW were lucky enough to have the 2009 Geelong Cats Premiership Cup visit our LBW office. A very big thank you to the Geelong Football Club & to Michael Betts for the organising of this, it was very much appreciated by partners and staff.
