Nominee Toolkit

So you got yourself nominated for the Reader’s Choice? Congratulations! Here’s everything you need to know:

 ways to get votes

  1. Ask for them: We’ve created “Vote for Us” ads that you can use on your website (below). Be sure to place one in a prominent position so your customers see it, and then link back to https://tjreaderschoice.com/ (or one of the category links below!) so they can easily access the ballot.
  2. Send reminders: Post regularly on your social media accounts, asking your followers to nominate your business and provide this link: https://tjreaderschoice.com
  3. Repeat: Send emails to your customer database. Recommended dates:
    • December 15: Readers’ Choice ballot begins!
    • December 23-27: Friendly reminder
    • January 6: Last call – voting ends January 15.
  4. Speak up: Tell your customers which categories you’re nominated in. Ask them to vote early and often! Download this PDF flyer to put by your register/reception area and make it a priority to ask your customers to vote for you! Some nominees even ask customers to vote within the text of their receipts! Every little reminder helps.
  5. Let us help: Download our free social media graphics. They are pre-formatted and labeled for the appropriate platform.
