To recognize authors making a positive impact with words, the Annual Goody Business Book Awards is now accepting 2023 Nominations with 25 new categories to expand options for writers. While many book awards highlight a social good category, the Goody Business Book Awards program honors 100% social impact books in 50 categories.
Any book published within 5 years (2019-2023) is eligible for the 2023 Goody Business Book Awards.
Authors, publishers, literary agents and fans are encouraged to Nominate Books here by September 30, 2023: https://goodybusinessbookawards.com/nominate-book/
“With a sea of 48.5+ million books published on Amazon as Kindle eBooks alone, authors need to find new ways to stand out above the rest beyond being a bestseller, which includes becoming an Award-Winning Author,” explains Goody PR and Goody Business Book Awards Founder, Award-Winning Author and Podcast Host Liz H. Kelly.
When asked what changed, Kelly expanded, “Our author awards program still has 50 total book award categories, but added MANY new categories based on the most popular book award categories last year (i.e. Self-Help Memoir, Self-Help Inspiration and Leadership-Think Differently).”
More book award category options were added to recognize authors who wrote about their “life story.” For example, Autobiography, Biography, Personal Transformation, Motivation, Happiness, Diet and Exercise categories are new.
You can see what has been added in the two images below noted with a star next to the new category.
The goal is to amplify authors in their niche area of expertise to better attract potential readers, fans and clients. Our Book Award Categories are in these 8 subject areas:
- Business (13 categories)
- Entrepreneur (3 categories)
- Health (8 categories)
- Leadership (6 categories)
- Marketing (4 categories)
- Money/Wealth (3 categories)
- Self-Help (11 categories)
- Technology (2 categories)
When submitting a nomination, authors will also be asked HOW their book is improving lives. Kelly explains, “If your book is helping people live longer, improve their diet, be inspired, be a better leader, save money, buy a house, market their product better and/or other positive impacts, you should nominate your book for a Goody Business Book Award.”
