Simple programme helps businesses get fitter, faster
Planet Positive launches Business Detox to help organisations cuts costs and get into better shape in 2013
London 12/12/12: January is detox season and Planet Positive, a leading expert in sustainability, has launched a Business Detox programme to help businesses get into better shape in 2013. Similar to a diet and gym programme for your business, rolled into one, the Business Detox programme enables companies to achieve cost savings by cutting energy, carbon emissions, water and waste.
Business Detox is a tailored sustainability programme to help organisations save thousands of pounds by operating more efficiently. It is easy to follow and is designed to be managed by company employees. With expert advice and support from Planet Positive throughout the year there is no need for expensive external consultants.
To help companies get started, Planet Positive is offering a 25 per cent discount for organisations with less than 100 employees that sign up in December.
Just like jumping on the scales, the Business Detox programme helps every business accurately measure their energy and water consumption, carbon emissions and waste, and then set targets to reduce them. Every business is given access to a virtual platform to keep track of their performance and monitor progress.
Planet Positive encourage all employees to be engaged in the programme, ideally, setting up a Green Team to feed in new ideas. Keeping motivated is the key to successful training, so monthly online incentives are available and participating organisations can share their experiences on the Planet Positive Facebook page.
"January is detox season and the perfect time to take inefficiency and excess out of your business,” said Steve Malkin, Planet Positive CEO. “We are helping businesses get in shape for 2013 by reducing their energy bills, waste and water usage through simple steps that can be carried out by the employees. It’s a team effort that delivers tangible results, fast. And, just like a personal trainer for business, Planet Positive provides support and motivation every step of the way."
Planet Positive’s Business Detox is ideal for any organisation, large or small, to help save money, reduce energy, carbon emissions, waste and water. Just like getting fit, once you start being sustainable it becomes a positive and healthy lifestyle.
