Recipients of the 2010 Consumers’ Choice Award were honored at the annual Recognition Luncheon on May 13. The event marked the seventh season for Consumers’ Choice Award in the Indianapolis area! We were privileged to have Certified Speaking Professional and Master Certified Coach Patrick Donadio to serve as our Emcee. Patrick is a nationally recognized speaker, author, communication specialist, and business coach who works with thousands of executives to increase sales, improve presentation skills, and enhance image.

In addition to the awards honored on stage, attendees had the opportunity to network with some of the best companies in Indianapolis and enter their names for prize drawings. There were also prizes for individuals who shared their Consumers’ Choice Award success stories at the luncheon.

“The Consumers’ Choice Award is a great way to differentiate yourself from your competition,” said Jeff Slutsky, Executive Vice President of Consumers’ Choice Award. “It lets people know that Indianapolis consumers prefer your business.”

Trust a winner this year and look for the Consumers’ Choice Award logo in the ads and on the offices of the best companies in Indianapolis.

Each year the President of Consumers’ Choice Award selects a company which demonstrates the most creative and extensive use of the Consumers’ Choice Award name and logo. The 2010 winner of the Consumers’ Choice President’s Award is IndyWest Harley-Davidson. The folks at IndyWest Harley-Davidson make sure everyone knows they are a Consumers’ Choice Award winner! IndyWest uses the Consumers’ Choice Award name and logo in their newsletters, on their website and advertising and their frequent promotional events. Always first to try out new ways to promote their Award, IndyWest has used it consistently for three years. We at Consumers’ Choice Award love working with them!
