Since 2015, Best in Biz Awards has each year highlighted the Most Awarded companies receiving honors in the highest number of award categories, based on the weighted combined total of gold, silver and bronze honors awarded to any company in that year’s competition.
See last year’s Most Awarded companies, including Wolters Kluwer, NorthPoint Logistics, REV Capital, Applied Systems, Moody’s Corporation and Upwork.
Each company entering multiple categories in Best in Biz Awards is automatically in the running for this additional recognition. Companies automatically receive 3 points for each gold win, 2 points for each silver and 1 point for each bronze award. Companies with the same aggregate score share the honor.
The top highest scoring companies receive additional award logos to use on their websites and in marketing materials. There is no additional entry fee to be considered for this recognition and, as usual, companies submitting 5 or more entries automatically receive a 10% quantity discount on their entry fees in the online entry system. Additional discounts are available for companies submitting more than 10 entries.
So if you’re debating between a few different categories, don’t hesitate to enter more to increase your chances of becoming one of this year’s top most awarded companies!
How to make it to the Most Awarded list
01 |
Enter multiple categoriesThis goes without saying, but a higher number of entries automatically gives you more chances to win and thus more chances to score the points to make it onto the Most Awarded list. |
02 |
Re-use your existing entries in additional categories.Writing 10 different and distinct award submissions can sometimes get overwhelming, so to maximize your chances at winning, while minimizing your work, re-use your existing entries in as many applicable categories as possible. E.g. your Best Place to Work entry can be easily re-used in HR Department or HR Executive of the Year categories; Most Customer Friendly Company of the Year entry can be easily re-submitted in Support Department or Support Executive of the Year categories; PR Campaign of the Year entry makes great material for a PR Department entry; and any product or service entry can be re-purposed across several product categories (e.g. Enterprise Product of the Year, Most Innovative Product of the Year – Enterprise and Best New Product of the Year – Enterprise). Look for more Tips included throughout the category descriptions. |
03 |
Enter some of the less popular categories.It is no secret that some categories attract more entries than others. Some… tens of times more. Maximize your chances at scoring points for each of your wins and making it onto the Most Awarded list by entering some of the slightly less popular department or executive categories and showcasing your company’s departments’ and executives’ excellent work. |
04 |
Double-up on your categories.Whenever you enter an executive category, enter the corresponding department category – and vice versa! For example, if you are entering Technology Executive of the Year, chances are most of the executive’s accomplishments are also the department’s accomplishments. Double your chances at winning by entering both categories. |
05 |
Make every entry count.When writing your entries, think of the judges’ busy schedules and respect their time. Craft well-written, concise entries, with plenty of bullet points, numbers, statistics, and supporting examples or quotes. |
