Winning the Small Business category at the South Canterbury Chamber of Commerce Business Community and Excellence Awards is nothing short of monumental for our team here at Scooch Marketing. It's more than just a shiny trophy on our shelf — it's a validation of our hard work, the late nights, and the unwavering passion that drives us every single day. This recognition isn’t just a win for us; it’s a win for every small business that strives to make a big impact in our community.
The journey to this award hasn’t been a walk in the park. Like many small businesses, we've faced our share of challenges—navigating the ever-evolving digital marketing landscape, juggling multiple roles, and constantly pushing ourselves to deliver top-notch services to our clients. But these challenges have shaped us, helping us grow, learn, and ultimately, thrive.
This award is proof that we’re on the right path. It’s a nod to the crucial role small businesses play in driving innovation, fostering connections within the community, and contributing to our local economy. But more than that, it’s a reminder of the power of collaboration and teamwork. At Scooch, we firmly believe that together, we’re stronger — whether that’s working closely with our clients, partnering with talented professionals, or supporting fellow local businesses.
Of course, this achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible contributions of some key players in the Scooch team...
To Rewa, Miranda, and Nina — your dedication, creativity, and daily commitment to Scooch’s vision have been instrumental in our success. Thank you for being the backbone of our team.
A huge shoutout to Tracy Kruger at House of Jam Creative Communications who took our award entry from drab to fab with her brilliant copywriting skills. Tracy, your creativity, constant communication, and ability to keep us on track (and on time!) made all the difference.
And we can’t forget Nathan, Cheryl and the epic team at Copyfast Timaru. Your printing work on our BECA Booklets was nothing short of exceptional — from the luxurious 250gsm Royal Offset covers to the pristine 140gsm Royal Offset internals. Your attention to detail and dedication to excellence helped our entry shine. Check it out below...
