There doesn’t need to be a trade off between purpose and profit

A business doesn’t exist for profit. Our clients run businesses for all kinds of reasons – for family, for passion, for better options than employment. Caring about the world around you doesn’t need to be at the expense of your profit.

Actually, there’s a huge body of evidence to say that making a positive impact on your team, your community and the wider world makes a business more successful.

There is an awakening amongst consumers and businesses that sustainability is not just important but imperative. We’re past the point where the core message is ‘do no harm’. We need collective action at scale, fast.

Instead of ‘doing no harm’, what if we aimed for a positive impact? We do that through the simplicity of two great platforms, Million Tree Pledge and Veritree.

Our philosophy: we don’t do giving back, we do giving as we go.

When business is hard, it can be tempting to think “I’ll give back when I’ve gotten somewhere”. For us, giving back feels linked to ‘taken too much’. Instead we give as we go.

When we achieve something good in our business, something good happens somewhere else in the world. As we grow, so does our giving through our commitment to give 20% of our profits to climate charities.

If you’re really passionate about doing good, lean into it now. You will reap the rewards in the business by attracting clients, employees and referrals. You’ll generate a buzz around you and positively impact your bottom line.
