Sustainability Rebranding: 3 PR Pointers for Your Company
Transitioning to more sustainable operations cannot be a purely internal endeavor for businesses. An increasing number of businesses are facing pressure to prove their sustainability as environmental issues are at the forefront of the public’s mind.
Congratulations if your company is taking this step! Here are three public relations (PR) suggestions.
Emphasize The Tangible Impact
Showing the actual difference your company is making in the world is demonstrating the observable effects of your sustainability initiatives.
You Desire To:
Establish mechanisms for monitoring and measuring important sustainability indicators, such as waste production, water use, and carbon emissions.
Compile the data to precisely measure the effect of your sustainability initiatives.
Whether your impact data is about solar energy breakthroughs or laser cleaning savings, present it graphically to your audience with charts, infographics, or interactive dashboards to make it easy to understand.
Let’s take the example of a business that recently went solar. Give detailed information instead than just mentioning it, such as:
- Because of solar energy, fewer CO2 emissions are produced each year.
- How many cars’ worth of pollutants that reduction equals the portion of your energy use that is currently met by solar power
- Highlight Collaborations and Partnerships
Working together to make a difference through collaboration with like-minded organizations demonstrates your membership in a larger movement.
You’d want to:
Look for partners who, like you, are committed to sustainability, whether they be NGOs, trade associations, or other environmentally concerned companies.
Collaborate on projects that make the most of each partner’s advantages in order to accomplish shared sustainability objectives.
Collaborate on public relations and marketing strategies to attract a larger audience and advance joint sustainability initiatives.
Consider the scenario when your company collaborates on a beach cleanup initiative with a nearby environmental non-profit. One may:
- Co-brand news releases launching the campaign and promotional materials.
- Describe the partnership’s goals.
- Involve staff members from both companies in the cleanup, and motivate them to post about their experiences on social media with a designated hashtag.
- Inform and Encourage Customers
Building a community of like-minded people who support your sustainability activities starts with providing customers with the information and tools they need to make sustainable decisions.
You desire to:
Provide informative content to spread awareness about sustainability issues and eco-friendly methods, such as blog entries, videos, or webinars.
Organize seminars or other gatherings where customers can get useful advice on leading more environmentally friendly lives.
Partner with sustainability specialists or eco-influencers to spread the word about your cause and attract a larger audience.
Let’s say, for instance, that your company starts a series of “Green Living Guides” on your website and social media. You may:Provide informative content to spread awareness about sustainability issues and eco-friendly methods, such as blog entries, videos, or webinars.
