Can We Afford to Go Green?


















Are you thinking about "greening" your office but not sure how much green you'll have to hand over to get started? Take heart. Going green doesn't have to break your bank account.


For example, Best Buy has set up a pilot electronics recycling program where consumers will be able to bring in a maximum of two used electronics to the store for recycling. So that old processor that's been collecting dust in the corner office now has a new home. The same goes for old monitors and even television screens up to 32 inches. If you're fortunate to live in the following areas, you should take advantage of this incredible offer: Northern California, Minneapolis, Baltimore and parts of North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Virginia and Washington, D.C.


Another low-cost way to go green at the office is to encourage carpooling and/or the use of public transportation or bicycles to get to work. Some businesses offer to pay the bus fare for employees who support this new commuting arrangement. Others reward carpoolers with gift cards. Speaking of gift cards, you could take advantage of my gas card incentive program to fill up your carpoolers' tanks. With gas prices rising every day, your employees would appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Of course, once you begin these "green" initiatives, you'll want to advertise it. Take advantage of the vast assortment of "green" promotional products we offer. From "green" writing instruments to grocery shopping bags, WLB Enterprises has you covered. Click on our site and enter the keywords "eco-friendly" or "environmentally friendly" and you'll find over 8,000 products. It's enough to make you dizzy!


Never fear, the Promotion Doctor is here! Call me toll-free at 1-877-667-7642 and I'll walk you through the selection process.
