Why Choose Tacoma Energy?
Tacoma Energy's model has been thoroughly tested. We built and refined our model to ensure as much success by the franchisee's as possible. During this period we implemented several programs in new and existing home markets. In our first roll out in Columbus, Ohio we started at 0 and completed over 1000 home energy assessments and energy audits in 2011. This number will vary depending on your market size, the franchisee's work ethic and ability to convey in a very clear and simple message to the customer about their home energy needs.
- Green Consumer Statistics: A recent Simmons study indicates that the amount of Behavioral Greens – consumers with the greenest behaviors and attitudes – has risen by 7.3 million since 2006. These green consumers represent 31 percent of the population and consist of more than 34 million adults.
- The Bottom Line: Though it's radically changed from 40 years ago, green business is here to stay. Dr. Greg Unruh, of global business at Thunderbird School of Global Management, points out how the financial collapse in 2007 demonstrates this. "While some companies did cut back, others doubled down on sustainability. Sustainability was countercyclical; some companies had figured out how to make it a business proposition. This is where the future lies."
