Winning Best of Santa Fe is a coveted honor. But, in order to win, you have to be nominated enough to become a finalist. Here’s how to make that happen:
- Advertise on the nominations ballot from February 1 - March 15, and the final ballot during the month of May.
- Campaign! The most effective way to campaign is free—engage your supporters! Get your friends, family and loyal customers to nominate you. Send newsletters, post on social media, hang posters in your storefront and offer special discounts to customers who help your campaign.
