CRs-BEST-awards-logoHelp choose the top products in the Christian Retailing’s Best awards

Christian Retailing invites anyone involved in the business of Christian products to vote in the 2013 Christian Retailing’s Best awards. Let your voice be heard by voting online in the awards, formerly known as the Retailers Choice Awards.

Introduced in 2001, Christian Retailing’s awards have been increasingly acknowledged as an important way of recognizing some of the most significant new, life-changing products in the industry.

In this year’s refreshed program, Christian retailers are now joined by authors, editors, literary agents, distributors, gift designers and others in the Christian products industry to vote for what they think are the best Christian products released in the previous year. Owners and managers of Christian retail stores should note that voting is open to all of their team members, including volunteers.

Suppliers have entered their products in a large number of categories for books, Bibles, gifts, music, DVDs and more. Those involved in the industry can vote from March 1, 2013 to March 31, 2013. To vote, go to <a href="http://www.christianretailingsbest.com" target="_blank">www.christianretailingsbest.com</a> and click on the link for the online survey ballot.

Products nominated for the 2013 Christian Retailing’s Best awards have been published or newly on sale in stores in 2012, with the exception of nominations in the Backlist category.

Voters will be asked to judge nominations on the impact they have had on staff and customers, including their ability to:

  • ?speak to people’s hearts and evoke emotion
  • ?open people’s minds to new ways of thinking
  • ?encourage and affirm Christ-like living.

Finalists will be announced April 8, and winners will be announced at the International Christian Retail Show to be held June 23-26 in St. Louis.
