BOB Award votes rising rapidly
paNOW readers continue to prove that they are passionate about recognizing the best of what Prince Albert has to offer.
Voting began a week ago for paNOW’s second annual Best of the Best Awards (BOBs) and similar to last year, the response has been tremendous. Within the first 24 hours, there were already more than 70,000 votes cast and now a week later, that number has risen to more than 168,000.
With more than 200 categories, the BOBs are a great opportunity for local businesses, people, or community groups to gain some exposure and promote themselves. Last year, the top nominees got creative in getting the word out to better their chances to win. This year’s top nominees continue to do the same with social media platforms being used most extensively.
Harinderpal Rai owner of one of Prince Albert’s newest restaurants The Spice Trail and top nominee in not one but three categories including Best New Place to Eat, Best Ethnic Restaurant and Best Indian Cuisine is one of many finalists that has taken advantage of paNOW’s vote for us graphics package that can be downloaded on the paNOW website. Rai, like many others, including the staff at Bold Dance Productions and Frontrunner Footwear, have utilized Facebook and the cover page and profile pic that is provided by paNOW in the graphics download to get the word out to their customers, family and friends to vote for them.
