The finalists in the 2011 ActionCOACH My Business awards have been announced. Did you make the shortlist?

The finalists in the 2011 ActionCOACH My Business awards have been announced.

We assembled panels of three judges - two outside experts and My Business editor Simon Sharwood - and read all the entries across the nine awards categories. The five businesses each panel felt best met the criteria for the awards, as published in My Business magazine and at the awards website, were selected to go through to the final round of judging.

It was not easy to get down to five finalists in each category - many entries were of extraordinary quality. But a few had that little extra spark the judges felt added up to a top five finish.

So without any further ado, here's the list of finalists who will line up for the big prize at the awards dinner on October 6th.
