SABEW makes Best in Business all online

The Society of American Business Editors and Writers announced that its 2009 Best in Business contest will accept entries only online.

Mark Scarp writes, “Also, entries received by Jan. 13, 2010, will pay a discounted rate. The final deadline is Jan. 25, 2010.

â€œ’SABEW has invested in a significant amount of technology to receive entries online,’ said Beth Hunt, manager of editorial operations for American City Business Journals and incoming SABEW secretary. ‘We hope that offering the early date will avoid the big crush of deadline.’

“Entries for the 2008 contest were also received electronically, except in the General Excellence categories for newspapers and magazines.

“At least one contributor to each entry must be a SABEW member. A separate contest with the same deadline schedule is for SABEWâ€™s student members, who pay no fee for submitting one entry.”
