Awards
Marketing in
high gear
As part of PACK & SEND Ballarat’s marketing activities for
2009, franchisee, Andrew Howard, decided to complete an
entry submission for the CGU Commerce Ballarat Business
Excellence Awards for the ‘New and Emerging Business’
category and, to his delight, soon found that his store was
announced as one of three fi nalists in their category!
Although Ballarat didn’t progress to the status of winner in
2009, two very positive outcomes for the store were weeks
of free exposure through WIN TV and the local newspaper
during the lead up to the announcement.
And, with nominations just opening for this year’s awards
and Ballarat still qualifying in the category, Andrew is ready
to enter again for 2010.
We wish Andrew the very best of luck!
Continued success for
PACK & SEND Hobart
Following on from their crowning as PACK & SEND Australian Franchisee of the

Organised by the Franchise Council of Australia (FCA), the MYOB Excellence in
Franchising Awards was created to recognise outstanding achievements of hard
working individuals and organisations in the growth and development of their
businesses as well as their contribution towards franchising in Australia.
Update

up recognises them as one of the best operators in Australian franchising.
“Everyone at PACK & SEND should be very proud of Andrew and Sharon’s
achievements,” said PACK & SEND CEO, Michael Paul. “The judging process for this
