eBay is looking for Canada's Entrepreneur of the Year

Canadians who use parcel delivery firms to grow their eBay business are being asked to submit entries for the Annual Entrepreneur of the Year Awards.

Ambitious and hard working entrepreneurs who run a successful small business on eBay are being asked to send in applications for the awards by August 15th.

Entrants must achieve a minimum of CA $1,000 (£614) in sales every month on eBay's North American sites.

They must also post a minimum of ten listings per month and receive at least 98 per cent positive feedback.

Winners are to be announced during Canadian Small Business week in October.

Among the accolades on offer is the Innovator of the Year Award, which comes with a CA $2,000 (£1,228) prize value.

The award recognises entrepreneurs who have taken an original approach to selling online, such as by utilising social media, unique methods for sourcing inventory, special sales and creative graphic design for their eBay presence.

Recently, Mobile Choice editor Natasha Stokes suggested that smartphones would be the next big innovation in advertising.
