Sugartone Winners



Wow! Dozens of business articles were submitted for the Sugartone Sweet Business Blogging contest and there were literally hundreds of votes and comments, both here on Bloggertone and also on BizSugar.

Great Business Articles With Lively Discussions

We would like to thank all of you for participating. The quality of the business articles was fantastic. There are some real gems. We hope you all take the time to read through all of the business articles submitted to Sugartone.

Networking Within Two Business Communities

Several of the participants said they were grateful for the opportunity of expanding their business networks… not just across one community, but across two lively business communities. And this is what resonated the most with us too: Sugartone was a great business networking event.

    Congratulations to all the winners! Everyone done well to support and participate, most of all the new connections we built here are invaluable. I can’t thank Cindy and Niall enough for making this event a great success; along with the commenters/voters/authors for the brilliant input, felt like I’ve been to a business course & made some friends along the way. Great job & thanks so, so much for the opportunity! It’s great to be listed with some amazing individuals!

    Thanks Bloggertone & Bizsugar for thinking up such a productive event. I enjoyed composing my submission – in fact Jacqui I got up at 3am to get it out of my head and onto paper, lol. I’ve met super people on here and have a few more ideas looking for expression so will be posting again. Delighted to win a prize, surprised and delighted.

    “Look at these Purchase Invoices as money”

    Good advice, its hard to remember to treat annoying pieces of paper with respect, but those papers ARE money.  Not only because of the VAT to reclaim and less tax to pay, but a lower accountant’s bill due to one less piece of paper to spend time and therefore your money chasing.
