Save money, waste, storage on bottled water!

Housewater looks like a great design and a well delivered product. If you buy in bottled water, store it, chill it, serve it and then deal with the waste, you know what a pain and cost it can be.
Housewater provide a high quality filtration and refill bottle system for your food, room and meeting needs.
I really like the design and feel of the bottle and think customers will accept this system and product as a logical sustainable step for hospitality, like they did the towel card and room heating monitor. I am thinking of distributing this within our range so let me know what you think on stuart@ma-enviro.co.uk or 01647 252855.
A new government, how exciting!
For some reason a change of prime minister and new government is all very exciting, it fills you with optimism to see what the years ahead will hold believing all the words spoken. I fear a few years of cuts and job losses in the public sector are guaranteed unfortunately and therefore spend will reduce and businesses will look to cutting budgets. We have been working with a few councils regards cleaning and consumable budgets and we are only too aware of the cuts they have been warned are coming.
If you are looking to save budget money spend on your cleaning or consumable supplies give us a call and if you have the will we have some real ideas on 01647 252855.

You can have it all!

Talking to some customers on my rounds it is clear that whilst people are spending money they are being more choice as to what on. One city centre cafe said it was quieter than they would expect and a tourist farm shop said the cafe was busy but the local food trade shop was not doing that well.
I guess people will resort to the big four for their basics and luxury's for a bit less in difficult times. For all the principles that we all love, buy local, organic, green, Eco friendly, if it costs more than a certain amount above the other option people can not afford or perceive they can not buy into it.
I have always said that when selling green solutions they must always SAVE money. Our green cleaning fluids are high grade concentrate and therefore make up many triggers as apposed to chemical based watered down products. This is just one example that with a little effort you can have it all.
Solar power is cheaper in the long run, ground source heating, but they all demand are larger outlay. If we can get real up front support for all houses to cost out these changes we could make a real difference to do our bit in Britain. We can but live in hope!

Announcing the Goofy Green Herring Awards!

Green foot, green leaf, Eco leaf, green England, The Environmental association of,green armpit awards! If I had a blah blah blah.......on a weekly basis now I get approached by one organisation or another to pay money and enrole on a buying group, website list or sign up to join some green Eco friendly motivated group who want to endorse our products, services or business. Sometimes the only criteria is money or saying the right things on a web sign up form.
I made a decision recently when we were looking at the new branding and messages of our offer. My talented marketeer asked me whether we wanted to put the name of the organisations that approved our products on the back such as one that works within a large industry sector and another relating to animal issues. We decided NO for the following reasons:
1) Why should we pay organisations to support what we know we are, when we know what we are already (get it)?
2) We have been supplying greener cleaning fluids for 10 years before most companies even realised that is what they would need to do to keep their market share and therefore the greater good and credibility of us would shine through.
3) We and our users know our products work very well and understand already without a symbol where they come from and what they are made with (they only need to ask the questions and they get the answer).
4) Despite any badge,if the product doesn't do what it should it will not sell anyway ultimately even turning people back to toxic products as results will demand.
5) Despite having a symbol if a product is not good value, it will not ultimately be a success in the future market.
6) Bottom line must be the product source, build, performance and delivery value of any product over the next decade.
7) Half the badges and groups will cease over the next 5 years due to the economy or will.
Despite this their are some fantastic groups that have furthered people's interest in such matters and have the ear of government on policy, its the profit motivated start ups that businesses need to be careful of wasting money on.
