Our awards luncheon will be held on October 22, 2013 at the Grand America Hotel.

There are 3 categories: Fastest Growing, Top Revenue Growth and Emerging Elite. To qualify for consideration, a company must be a Utah-based, for-profit entity.

The Fastest Growing and Top Revenue Growth category companies must have been in business for at least the last five consecutive years (2008-2012) and must have had a minimum of $50,000 in total revenue in fiscal 2008. Winners will be selected and ranked based upon percentage increases in revenue during the five consecutive year measuring period.

Candidates for the Emerging Elite Awards are Utah-based, for-profit companies with less than five years but at least two years of operating history, and show great promise for future success. Winners will be selected by our Selection Committee based on financial data and other factors.

MWCN encourages all companies to apply regardless of their percentage growth rate. The percentage growth necessary to qualify varies from year to year, and if your company qualifies, it deserves to be recognized.

There is no cost to apply. All financial information submitted will be held confidential and utilized only by the Selection Committee. No financial information will be published or made publicly available. Companies selected for inclusion in the 2013 MWCN Utah 100 Awards Event will be notified by the end of August 2013.

To honor the winning MWCN Utah 100 companies, an awards event will be held on October 22, 2013 at the Grand America Hotel in Salt Lake City, with an exclusive winners and sponsors reception scheduled for the hour before the event. Winners are encouraged to share the excitement of winning by inviting company employees, customers and other guests to the awards event. The awards program will attract more than 1,200 attendees, who will include local business and government leaders and many media representatives. Winners will receive a MWCN Utah 100 certificate and will have a photograph opportunity with our distinguished guest. A book listing all winners and their rankings will be provided to all attendees. Winners will also be recognized in local publications.

All applications must be submitted by June 30, 2013. Instructions for applying are available at www.mwcn.org, where you can apply online with further directions for submitting your completed application. Please note that there are two official application forms – the standard form for those companies applying for either the Fastest Growth or Top Revenue Growth category applications, and one for Emerging Elite category applicants. You may submit only one application; please submit the one that fits your situation. Questions regarding the MWCN Utah 100 Award Event should be directed to the MWCN Utah 100 hotline at (801) 966-1430 or email at cheri@mwcn.org.

What Great Salespeople Do: Storyleaders Public Workshop 6/11/2013 8:00 AM - 6/13/2013 2:00 PM

Mon, 20 May 2013 17:46:45 GMT

Why do 20% of salespeople drive 80% of the revenue? At Storyleaders, we asked ourselves - what is it that the very best salespeople do (the "20%"), that is so fundamentally different than everyone else (the "80%")?

What we learned is that the very best salespeople know how to make an emotional connection with a customer or buyer. We also realized that training in companies everywhere today is teaching things to salespeople that are the very things that are driving customers and buyers away! We created our Storyleaders Workshops because we believe in breaking the status quo and teaching salespeople what the very best salespeople do - make deep, lasting, human connections and through the power of "story" inspire people to buy.

Why should you participate in a Storyleaders workshop? A Storyleaders Workshop will help you change the way you sell in a profound way and have an immediate, lasting and meaningful impact on sales results and customer relationships, as well as the culture in your organization. Companies that have the courage to change the way they sell, including technology companies like Oracle, Salesforce.com and Medicity, have experienced tangible results quickly.
