Leveraging Sustainability to Increase Sales

Welcome, everyone. Today, we begin the March video series, Vision to Value – The Profit in Corporate Responsibility. This series is one of the most exciting, because it is all about realizing the benefits of all your efforts up to this point. To recap, our previous video series have covered the process of developing and implementing your Corporate Sustainability program; to view any videos you may have missed, click here. Today’s video, titled Leveraging Sustainability to Increase Sales, which can be watched below,  focuses on using Corporate Responsibility to stand out in the market and meet customer demand.

A major benefit of implementing your sustainability strategy is that it sets you apart and can establish your organization as an industry leader. It is vital to promote your program, including the goals you’ve developed, the action plan you have in place, and the successes you’ve achieved so far. By communicating this information, you can leverage your sustainability story and position your brand for success in the green economy.

Once you have established your program, it is essential to educate your sales teams on sustainability. I have always been an advocate of increasing training and education on sustainability, and I have seen countless examples of the value it brings to organizations. Empowering your sales teams with sustainability training allows them to reach new markets and drive sales to new levels.

Check out the video for more information on this topic, and for strategies to promote your sustainability program. Also, be sure to register for this month’s webinar where you can ask me questions directly and we can discuss these topics further.

As I mention in the video, my upcoming seminar in May is filling up fast, so be sure to reserve your spot today. This seminar is not “Sustainability 101”! It is designed for you to work directly on your Corporate Sustainability program and develop concrete steps to advance your organization. For more information on the seminar, download the brochure here.

Thank you all for joining, and please keep providing your feedback. If you haven’t already, make sure you subscribe to my blog for weekly updates (top right of this page).
