Services
You’ve built a successful business, but the world is changing fast. Customers, investors, and employees want more than great products; they want values that support a sustainable future. The shift can feel complex, expensive, and overwhelming. All of Better Business. Better World’s services provide a clear plan of where to start weaving sustainability into your operations, culture, and strategy with confidence.
Better Business Ignite
Better Business Ignite is a 2 month project of discovery, strategy and planning. We carry out a People and Planet health check to uncover which things you are already doing, then a gap analysis of what could be changed, better integrated or improved to transform into a socially & environmentally responsible business.
The outcome of this project is a social and environmental responsibility roadmap for your business, with recommendations of improvements and suggested certifications that you could work towards, for example, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, BCorp.
Better Business Accelerator
Better Business Accelerator is a 9 month programme which supports businesses through discovery and action. We dig deep to uncover which things you are already doing, while guiding you on what needs to be changed, adjusted or improved to transform into a socially & environmentally responsible business. This programme is based on the B Corp framework, and at the end you’ll have the option to pursue B Corp certification if it feels like the right next step for your business.
Activities covered include:
- Stakeholder mapping & engagement about social & environmental issues
- Materiality assessment
- Development of company social & environmental KPIs
- Supply chain mapping & risk assessment
- Greenhouse Gas foot-printing & climate action plan
- Workplace culture strategy
- Social & environmental policy creation
Better Business Evolution (for existing B Corps)
Better Business Evolutions is a 12-monthly membership programme designed to take the stress out of maintaining your B Corp certification while helping you thrive as a socially and environmentally responsible business. I would essentially become your outsourced Chief Sustainability Officer so that you don’t have to hire a full-time role to keep social & environmental responsibility at front of mind in the business.

Impact reports
Part of being a responsible business is being totally transparent about the work you do, so one way to show this is to produce, publish and openly communicate an annual Impact Report. BBBW can help you create a clear and meaningful annual Impact Report that shares the story of your economic, social and environmental performance. Together, we’ll turn your work into a transparent and engaging report you can confidently publish and communicate with your stakeholders.
The B Corp Power Hour – hourly, ad hoc troubleshooting
You may come across a specific social and/or environmental issue within your business and would like an external perspective and advice on how this could affect your B Corp certification. In these cases, BBBW offers a ‘B Corp Power Hour’ to hash these issues out and come to a solution.
GHG footprinting: for your company, or an event, or a service
Whether you are on the B Corp journey or not, BBBW can support you to measure your business’, event’s or service’ greenhouse gas footprint and recommend ways in which you can reduce it.
Materiality and stakeholder mapping
An essential part of any sustainability journey is to map your core stakeholders and the key social and environmental topics that influence your business and that you influence. BBBW can support you and your team run this activity, which would give you an excellent base on which to develop your sustainability strategy.
Supply chain mapping and risk assessment
BBBW helps businesses map their supply chains to understand where their products and services come from, and where potential social and environmental risks may exist. Together we identify areas of concern, improve transparency, and develop practical steps to strengthen responsible sourcing.
Social & environmental impact advisory board member
If you don’t have an internal Chief Sustainability Officer, BBBW can join your board meetings as the social and environmental impact expert to advise on how strategic and operational decisions might impact your social and environmental footprint.
