San Antonio Small Business 2012 'Man of Valor' Awards:

Recognize and encourage a local businessman for their persevering valor, community contributions and personal sacrifices by nominating them for a MENtrepreneurs™ 2012 'Man of Valor' Award.

Small business is tough. Failure greatly discourages men from trying again - and yet, 79% of all new jobs come from the solo-entrepreneur as a personal enterprise with no employees, or a micro-enterprise with less than five employees.

There's ~93,000 men in business in San Antonio, and over 13,400 are struggling to stay in business with little reward or recognition. You can nominate several of them and make a big difference. Imagine helping them simply grow to hire a single employee. You'd change SA!

The MENtrepreneurs™ Valor awards recognize the character, passion and sacrifice of champion men of small entrepreneurial businesses and social enterprises. Think of it like 'Main Street Accolades' or 'Honorary War Ribbons' for small business owners. Get your community to ‘champion’ for your man-in-business!

Nominate, recognize and greatly encourage a personal or micro-enterprising man of valor in your community for his faithful, courageous and generous sacrifices. Share his overcoming story below. Get your friends and family to leave comments and ‘vote’ for him. Make a huge difference for him, his family and your community!
