So what is the ECO1 Green Policy.....?

ECO-nomics

Practice What you Preach.. ?

ECO1 is a green company helping other companies to become greener in their work. We strive to offer our services to companies who often lack specialist sales and marketing skills, especially telemarketing. These skills are essential to the financial success of any organisation. We believe that the financial success of eco concepts and green organisations will lead to a positive environmental evolution. Despite having the best product, many companies fail because potential customers did not even know they existed! Our methods of working not only reduce our carbon footprint but they often reduce the marketing costs for our customers. At ECO1 we believe that going green does not have to mean spending more. We believe that Climate Change issues will cease to be a problem when economics and ecology are harmonised.

ECO1 are now carbon neutral.  We take Climate Change seriously and do our best to "practice what we preach".  It is often difficult for smaller companies to put carbon offsetting in to practice.  co2balance offer  the ability to go carbon neutral for the small to medium sized enterprise as well as for the big boys. A Common Sense Approach The prime directive of ECO1 is to challenge the convention that everyone has to travel to work. Using sophisticated communications technology, or the simplicity of a telephone; today, much business can be completed without the need for travel. Wherever possible, ECO1 seek to boost sales for companies via telephone, email, fax and text. Conversely, we encourage all our team to travel as little as possible to their place of work. Cycle, Recycle, or break the chain? Certainly, some of our team prefer a cycle to a car – but shouldn’t the issue be “Why are we travelling if we don’t need to?” In the late 20th Century, the business slogan in the UK was “on your bike” if you wanted to work. This was not a push to get people to cycle to work – but a message that everyone should drive for miles or even fly off to work. This led to a proliferation of motor vehicles in gridlock and a huge increase in air-traffic. By the year 2000 there were millions of people across the West becoming a part of the pollution and climate change issues.

Faking it Green or Getting on Track? If a business that has been polluting for years suddenly starts recycling, should that business be condemned for not using sustainable energy? If they implement sustainable energy – should that business be condemned for polluting transport policies? At ECO1, we take a commonsense approach that if a company wants to be greener, then we want to help them. We look to the future not the past. We are not referring to the “spin” of trying to pretend that potentially harmful methods are somehow really green. We are referring to helping organisations to get on the right track.

Our Long-Term Green Goals We want to become greener and we want to help other organisations to become greener. If you have a product or service that we can benefit from – we always welcome new ideas. Wherever possible, we use sustainable resources and we aim to minimise our impact upon the environment. Our long-term goals are not only to benefit our customers; we want to help our team to gain access to ecologically sound products and services at the most economical prices. We believe this will come about as green sales increase.
