It's nearly that time of year again! The time of love, amour, romance... no, we're not talking about Valentine's Day, but thebestof's 14 Days of Love campaign!
Back for its fourth successive year, 14 Days of Love is all about championing the best local businesses and giving them the appreciation they deserve. From February 1st 2013 until Valentine's Day, thebestof Colchester (and every other thebestof around the country) will be encouraging local people to 'share the love' by submitting reviews of their favourite businesses.
It's so simple – all you have to do is visit thebestof Colchester and write a testimonial about a local business you love. Perhaps it's your favourite restaurant, a reliable plumber, an accountant who is always there with the right advice when you need them.
Maybe it's dog groomer, a beautician, a health shop or builder – it doesn't matter. As long as they provide a consistently excellent service, we want to hear about them!
So what's in it for you? Well, aside from the warm and fuzzy feeling you'll get from 'kissing and telling' on the businesses you love, every review submitted will automatically be entered into the daily 14 Days of Love prize draw, which currently include a Ferrari driving experience, a romantic meal for two at a Michelin starred restaurant and a once-in-a-lifetime Orient Express experience.
In the next week or so, you'll see a few changes at thebestof Colchester. 'Pink' may not be the first thing that springs to mind when you think about us, but in celebration of the 14 Days of Love, that's exactly what we'll be! There will also be a few new features on the site, which will not only make it even easier to add a review, but with the Love-O-Meter, you can see how your most loved businesses are doing, both in Colchester and in the national categories!
So what are you waiting for? Vote now for your chance to win great prizes!
