See Alberta Through the Eyes of a Tourist
Let's be honest – running a business in Alberta isn't easy.
You're competing with everyone from big chains to that new place down the street. But here's something most business owners don't realize: you might already be sitting on a goldmine of customer love that could transform your marketing game.
The Best of Alberta Awards isn't some fancy corporate thing where you pay thousands just to enter. It's the real deal – and it's completely free.
What's In It For You?
Here's what happens when you win:
You get $2,500 worth of marketing that actually works:
- Your business gets featured everywhere our followers hang out online
- We put you in our printed Road Trips & Tours Guide (20,000 copies distributed across Alberta)
- Magazine features in Rubber Tire Touring Magazine that don't cost you a dime
- Premium Rumble Alberta business listing with enhanced visibility
- Your business becomes part of Rumble Alberta road trip routes and recommendations
- Professional content creation
- Year-round social media promotion across our network
Think about it – when's the last time you got professional marketing for free?
It's Not About Being Perfect – It's About Being Real
Look at this year's nominees. Baptiste Lake Burger Bar got nominated because they do "awesome movie nights."
That's it. They're not trying to be fancy – they're just making families happy.
Out of Bounds Restaurant? Someone loved their "gorgeous patios during sunset."
House of Thunder in Camrose? A customer said they "always had the best customer service."
These aren't corporate giants with million-dollar marketing budgets. They're real Alberta businesses doing what they do best – and getting recognized for it.
15 Categories That Celebrate Every Kind of Excellence
We've got 15 categories because Alberta businesses are diverse, and excellence comes in many forms:
- Best Accommodation
- Best Attraction
- Best Coffee
- Best Community Event
- Best Customer Service Experience (in any type of business)
- Best Family Restaurant
- Best Ice Cream Shop
- Best Indigenous Experience
- Best Museum
- Best Patio Experience
- Best Pie
- Best Pub
- Best Touring/Guiding Experience
- Lifetime Achievement Award
- Most Welcoming Community
You don't need to be everything to everyone. You just need to be really good at what you do.
Here's the Part That'll Surprise You
Nomination is completely free. No catch, no hidden fees, no "processing charges."
We believe good businesses shouldn't have to pay to be celebrated. Most business awards are just money grabs. This one's different because we're a nonprofit funded by sponsorships and grants – not your entry fees.
What Happens After You Win
We don't just hand you a plaque and disappear. Our team actually works with you:
- We write articles about what makes you special
- We promote you on social media all year long
- We include you in our touring routes and recommendations
- You get ongoing support from our marketing team
It's like having a marketing team that actually cares about your success.
Your Customers Are Already Your Best Marketing
Every day, someone walks out of your business thinking "that was great" or "I'll definitely be back." The Best of Alberta Awards just helps more people have that same experience.
We're not creating fake hype – we're amplifying the real stories your customers are already telling.
Don't Wait Until Next Year
Nominations close November 30th. That's it. Miss it, and you're waiting another whole year.
Look, you're already doing the hard work of running a great business. Why not get recognized for it?
Ready to Stop Being Alberta's Best Kept Secret?
Go to rumblealberta.com/best and nominate yourself. Or better yet, ask your customers to nominate you – those nominations hit different because they're coming from people who actually spend their money with you.
Takes five minutes. Could change your whole year.
