Produced by Small Business Trends (a highly popular small business online magazine) and Small Biz Technology (a media company that educates growing businesses on how to strategically use technology to grow), the Small Business Influencer Awards honor those who are influential to small businesses in North America, through the products, services, knowledge, information or support they provide to the small business market.
The Awards are designed to recognize the unsung heroes of small business—those who support and encourage entrepreneurs and small business owners, and help them achieve success and stay successful.
Diane Weklar has been nominated in this year’s Expert category, which includes a list of impressive nominees such as Ebay expert Marsha Collier, Shark Tank’s Barbara Corcoran, creator of the Duct Tape Marketing System, John Jantsch, and CNBC on-air contributor Carol Roth, to name a few.
Diane Weklar, known as the Authority on Accelerating Business Growth, provides small business owners and entrepreneurs with online and onsite training on a variety of business success strategies. She recently published the Amazon bestseller, Mastering the Money Maze: 10 Secrets to Winning Business Financing, which provides practical insights for small business owners and managers who need to raise capital. She is active with the National Association of Women Business Owners, the American Marketing Association and the Inland Empire Women’s Business Center, sponsored by the SBA where she is a mentor.
“Influencers are those who play crucial roles in the small business ecosystem, but who often are in the background,” said Anita Campbell, CEO of Small Business Trends and one of the co-founders of the Awards. “The Awards are intended to provide that added little boost in motivation and morale that can make a big difference in results.”
The Award process is two-fold. The community can vote online for Diane Weklar or its favorite influencer from August 29th - September 15, 2014. An expert panel of Judges with deep and wide knowledge of the small business market will choose the final 100 Small Business Influencers. The Awards gala event is October 21, 2014 in New York City.
