BoTV Nominations Are In!

 

The nomination period for the 2019 Best of Treasure Valley awards is over, and the response was incredible!

The community showed their support for their favorite businesses with a tsunami of nominations…We were blown away as they came in, thousands and thousands of them!

But it’s not over yet!

Nominations are just the beginning. The companies with the most nominations in each subcategory will move on to the voting round, where the community can choose the cream of the crop.

We will publish nominations when voting begins on October 1st. Voting will take place throughout the entire month, ending October 31st. Voting is done online on this website. Anyone with a valid email address and a Treasure Valley zip code can vote for their favorite companies. To retain the most reliable results, participants are restricted to one vote per category.

Remember, the BoTV is Unique

The Best of Treasure Valley contest is different because it’s not just about the votes. The community has been recommending their favorite businesses all year by leaving reviews on Google, Facebook, and Yelp.

That’s why the Best of Treasure Valley factors in online reviews from the previous 12 calendar months, up to October 31, 2018. Your overall rating and the number of 5-star reviews your business has earned on Google, Yelp, and Facebook are factored in with the number of votes received during the contest.

5-star Reviews x Average Rating + Votes = BoTV Score

The higher your rating and the more 5-star reviews you have, the better your chances of winning. That means that even if you didn’t get the most votes, you could still win by having a great online reputation. Alternatively, a business that doesn’t have as many reviews as they’d like still has a great chance of winning if they receive a lot of votes during the contest.

How do I know if my company was nominated?

If your business received enough support, we’ll be notifying you shortly via letter by mail about your nomination. The letter will include instructions for claiming your nomination, details about the contest, and resources to help you pick up more votes. You’ll even have an opportunity to download our free guide “Winning the Best of Treasure Valley”.

If you think you were likely one of the top-ten nominees in your subcategory, you can get a head start by contacting us to provide your business details and point of contact for the contest.
