U.S. Commerce Association’s Award Plaque Honors the Achievement
WASHINGTON D.C., June 8, 2009 -- A Castle Of Books has been selected for the 2009 Best of Stanton Award in the Books, Periodicals & Newspapers category by the U.S. Commerce Association (USCA).
Of course there’s only one bookstore in Stanton, so…
The USCA "Best of Local Business" Award Program recognizes outstanding local businesses throughout the country. Each year, the USCA identifies companies that they believe have achieved exceptional marketing success in their local community and business category. These are local companies that enhance the positive image of small business through service to their customers and community.
They found our ad on Craigslist.
Various sources of information were gathered and analyzed to choose the winners in each category. The 2009 USCA Award Program focused on quality, not quantity. Winners are determined based on the information gathered both internally by the USCA and data provided by third parties.
They found our ad on Craigslist that had an email and business name connected to it.
