About The Best Business Awards

Winning a prestigious Best Business Award will help your organisation build trust with customers and attract new business. The Best Business Awards are designed to be accessible, affordable and focused on genuine recognition. The awards are globally recognised and welcome entries from businesses of all sizes, from startups to international corporations. The Best Business Awards attract entries from a broad scope of sectors, businesses and business leaders.

Typically, most Business Awards will open in the spring and close in the autumn, with winners being announced and awards ceremonies taking place at the end of the year. The Best Business Awards are a little different. We recognise that business priorities shift and change, so accessibility and availability to promote your business when you need it is important. We offer businesses the opportunity to submit entries on a quarterly basis, so you can enter when the time is right for you, as many times as you wish during the course of the year.

The entry fee for the Best Business Awards is £199 + VAT (£238.80) per category entered or just £149 + VAT (£178.80) per category when you enter 3 or more categories (maximum of 5).

 

Why Enter The Best Business Awards?

A popular feature of the Best Business Awards is that, unlike most awards, entry is affordable. We also offer winners’ benefit packages instead of an Awards Ceremony to help you make the most of your awards success and to make your budget work as hard as possible, as well as promoting winners across our own channels.

Winning a Best Business Award provides global credibility that can be leveraged across your marketing, sales, and recruitment efforts. As a winner, you will receive a press release with judges’ comments about why you have won. You will also have the option to purchase an impressive Winner’s Pack, which includes a trophy, a framed official certificate and a licence to use the winner’s logo on your website and other marketing materials.

The recognition helps differentiate your business in competitive markets, whilst the quarterly entry system means you can enter at a time that works best for your business. Many winners report increased customer confidence, improved staff morale, and better business development opportunities following their success.

The Award Categories We Offer

The Best Business Awards feature over 50 categories, ensuring businesses of all sizes and sectors can find recognition that matches their specific achievements. Our six core award categories are each designed to highlight different areas of business excellence.

  • Technology
  • Marketing
  • Personal
  • Sustainability
  • Organisation Wide
  • Team

From technology innovation and marketing campaigns to customer care and sustainability initiatives, each category celebrates different aspects of business excellence and provides opportunities for companies to showcase their strengths and achievements.

“Winning a Best Business Award has provided us with a platform to raise our profile via the media. Since winning we have secured press coverage in key national and regional publications regarding the great work we are doing and we have attracted students to the college that may not have otherwise heard about us.

I would recommend the Best Business Awards to any dynamic organisation that wants to prove to stakeholders that it is delivering.”

Dave Cooper - Director of Marketing, Solihull College
