Thursday, August 9th, 2012

For weeks, everyone at eZanga has been talking about the Small Business Influencer awards. We tweeted, Facebooked, and even made a video telling you why you should vote for our CEO, Rich Kahn.

Well, all that work has paid off. Voting is over, and Rich was named a Small Business Influencer Commnity Choice Honoree in the Leaders category. Rich was one of the top five vote getters in the category.

The Small Business Influencer Awards honor those who are influential to small businesses in North America, through the products, services, knowledge, information or support they provide to the small business market. The Leaders nomination category includes executives, academics, government officials, or key employees who are part of organizations serving the small business market.

One of the purposes of the Small Business Influencer awards is to enable the small business community to show support for those that support them and influence them. Rich had enough support to be a Community Choice Honoree, and everyone at eZanga thanks you for that!
