In 2023 I spoke to many people about the benefits of ‘sowing the seeds of sustainability’ for a small business, and everyone employed and connected to them.
I met Viral Patel of Custodia at a networking group online and we had several chats to get to know each other, and then Viral took action and booked a 121 chat to Discuta meus serviços de sustentabilidade. Saiba mais. Seus funcionários que Custodia se importavam com o planeta e eles. sua indústria.
WHY
- This was a subject dear to his heart and he wanted to understand more about how this could work for his small business.
- He had heard me talk about “sustainability” and all that I was doing towards my efforts for my small consultancy and how I was passionate about helping others.
- He had heard that I had received a CSR-A accreditation and wanted to know more.
- He knew he was making some impacts but wasn’t really sure how to start to evidence this.
- He had the belief that CSR was really for larger corporations and so what did that mean for an SME.
- He thought the process would be too expensive.
- He wanted to stand out from his competitors and fellow business owners.
- He wanted to show his employees that Custodia cared about the planet and them.
- He wanted to highlight more areas where he could make a difference and focus on plans to implement changes.
- He wanted to tell the world what Custodia stood for and why.
- He wanted to see where he could save money on his operating costs and reduce his carbon footprint.
- He wanted to see how his efforts can help influence others in his industry.
- Ele queria ver se isso influencia os clientes a permanecer e, finalmente, atrair novos clientes como resultado. Que isso permitiria que ele pensasse e pensasse em mim todos os seus esforços até agora. Isso seria então usado para compilar o
So many reasons in fact and I am sure there are many more.
During the 121 chat, I explained to Viral what my SOW service consisted of, the benefits to SMEs, and how it would all work.
He liked the structured approach as a busy CEO and that this would allow him to think about and brainstorm with me all of his efforts thus far. This would then be used to compile the “Declaração de Sustentabilidade” para os negócios e, em seguida, usando todas as evidências nos quatro pilares, então agruparíamos um “Roteiro de Ações”
Isso foi planejado com resposta viral a um questionário e duas reuniões e mais adolescentes para o Brainom. Isso foi concluído em menos de um mês. Branson. Ambiente 2. Local de trabalho, 3. Comunidade e 4. Filantropia. “Fabulous and made so easy” Viral said.
Our work together answered all of his above questions and concerns and now he is best placed to hare with the world the impacts he and his business is making and stand out from others in his industry and build on the good work he has done.

Just as a reminder the 4 pillars used by CSR-A are
1. Environment 2. Workplace, 3. Community and 4. Philanthropy.

Your finished statement is an external document that can be used to inform people of your intentions and actions that have been taken and can be sent to clients, added to a website, attached to a tender or preferred supplier list, or added to an employee induction pack.
The roadmap is your internal document that outlines all the efforts under environment, workplace, community & philanthropy that have been done, are planned, can be improved, and in some cases considered but cannot be done ( e.g. solar panels on the roof of your rented office ) This is a “work in progress” map of all the things you have done and are planning and can be used by everyone on the business to monitor progress and impacts.
The documents compiled gave Viral the confidence to talk about his sustainability efforts and to encourage others. He rents a space in a Business Centre who have made huge impacts on the environment in their office setup, processes, and procedures. So this work has enabled him to match his efforts and stand out from the crowd.
