Free and open to members
If you’ve been hoping to learn more about making your business more sustainable and responsible (and capitalizing on the potential to increase your sales and develop new customers from the growing interest in sustainability), you’ll want to participate in this information session.
Join us to learn more at an in-person information session on Aug.26 with Chris Carmody, director of the Green Plus program and the Institute for Sustainable Development in Chapel Hill, NC. Click on the "Register Now" link below to reserve a space at this free information session.
Green Plus is an innovative program providing northwest Arkansas businesses the opportunity to achieve a true, viable “green” certification of their businesses as an aggressive marketing and performance tool. The Institute for Sustainable Development in Chapel Hill, NC, is the engine behind the Green Plus program, which provides a self-assessment tool to businesses to achieve Green Plus certification. Extensive details on the program are available at
www.gogreenplus.org
. The Rogers-Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce has elected to be an early adopter of this innovative program, which is currently offered in just three other states in the U.S. Member businesses will have the opportunity to enroll in the certification at a deeply-discounted rate thanks to their involvement with the Chamber.
The certification program is well-rounded, focusing on all segments of the performance of a business – people, planet and performance – rather than just sustainability efforts. It assesses the overall health and engagement of the business – from sustainable practices which positively affect the bottom line performance of the organization to the health of the business and civic/community engagement of employees. The certification is a true gauge of the overall health and performance of the business. It offers an amazing opportunity for northwest Arkansas businesses to take a leadership role while achieving recognition, positive PR and marketing collateral which will ultimately attract customers.
A second information session will be held by teleconference with Chris on Sept. 3 at the Chamber.
For additional information on this innovative program, contact Beth Stephens at 479-619-3192 or
