Today, Alignable’s network announced that Geoffrey Kent of Think Big with Geoffrey Kent has been elected as Bryn Mawr, PA’s 2024 Business Person Of The Year!
The 2024 contest is the most popular competition Alignable has hosted in over five years, marking a 40% jump in participation over 2023. During the 2024 contest, which ran from Jan. 8 to Feb. 23, 2024, 5,171 business owners emerged as winners (including ties), across 4,820 communities. That’s an increase of 1,195 additional Local Business People Of 2024 compared to 2023.
These leaders were commended for helping their peers and communities through a year with many challenges, including rising interest rates and rents, not to mention skyrocketing supply costs. "In our local business community, we look out for each other and refer businesses down the street or around the corner to help make everyone in town as successful as possible," said Kent. "And the challenges we’ve all encountered have compelled many of us to offer counsel to peers fighting to keep their businesses afloat. While I’m thrilled to receive this award, it’s really a testament to our entire community."
Kent received a special badge on his Alignable profile, recognizing this big win. In past years, the awareness generated through similar contests has spurred expanded connections, as well as new business for many winners.
