5 Business Strategies Your Business Should Consider to Move Towards Sustainability

Julie Starr • July 6, 2021



The corporate world is becoming more aware and proactive to reduce its carbon footprint on the planet. As a result, there is a general shift from the traditional business model to more responsible and environmentally conscious structures. It won’t be long until this demand for sustainability has legal consequences for businesses worldwide.

Therefore, since this shift is inevitable, it is in your business’s best interest that you get on board and seek out partners who share these sentiments. Sustainability has three facets: social, economic, and environmental. If your business can attain these facets, it will cater to market demands and make profits. 

There are several ways to attain sustainability, and your business can take any of these paths. However, the following suggestions can guide your business in the preliminary phase:

Improve Business Visibility and Sales

As you may know, advertisers have had a problem with Google Ads, and other social media advertising platforms don’t necessarily channel your posts to the target audience. Anyone has a chance to see your advert, but the conversions are not guaranteed. Through private marketplace advertising , you can contact your buyer directly. 

PMPs also eliminate the many cases of ad fraud and going to the wrong audiences. Such scenarios are otherwise impossible with traditional public advertising. Eventually, through PMPs, your business can attain economic sustainability from the guaranteed sales.

Go paperless and Recycle

Thanks to cloud technology, you can store your data on the database. So say goodbye to the physical safes at your offices and embrace firewalls and cybersecurity strategies to protect business information.

Moreover, whenever possible, recycle anything you can get your hands on, be it glass, plastic or metals. Contribute to the elimination of all landfills and the dumping of waste in developing nations.

Embrace Ethical Transparency

The age of politics around business conduct is almost gone. Your business should openly declare its policies and the health of its supply chain. Because, for the first time in history, the lowest people in the supply chain have a voice as well, and you need to provide humane working conditions for them. These changes will guarantee business social sustainability in the long run.

Know the Community around You

Corporate philanthropy is at its highest, and your business will do well to understand how to go about taking part in mitigating community disasters and calamities . Therefore, as a business, involve yourself in any local fundraiser or awareness campaign.

 For example, if frequent forest fires around your area of operation, involve your business to fund relief services to affected communities. This involvement will tackle social sustainability as well.

Eliminate Overproduction and Limit Wastage

For your business’ economic sustainability, continually optimize your profit margins. In the corporate world, this translates to innovation to reduce overall production costs. Furthermore, do not produce anything you don’t need to cut down on extra fees. However, if there are extras, find ways to recycle or reuse them to avoid wastage .

Final Thoughts 

Sustainability by definition manifests in terms of people, the planet, and profits. If you want to remain operational for a long time as a business, you will need to attain the three; there are no shortcuts. The days of firms disregarding the welfare and safety of people or the planet are long gone.

6 Things All Modern Businesses Need in 2025

By Julie Starr • April 22, 2025
If you’re starting your own business, then you know all too well that it’s equally an exciting and overwhelming time. There’s so much to think about, and you want to get it right from day one. But it doesn’t have to be as overwhelming as you might think. Let’s go through everything your new business needs to hit the ground running this year. A Clear Business Plan Before anything else, take the time to figure out your game plan. This doesn’t need to be a long, boring document that you’ll never look at again. Think of it as a simple guide that answers three key questions: Who are you selling to? What are you offering? And how are you going to get noticed? Once you’ve written that down, you can always tweak it as your business grows. From a communications standpoint, clarity on your audience and value proposition also sets the foundation for authentic brand storytelling—something Taiga Company helps clients refine at every stage. Responsible Financial Management Money is one of those things that can make or break a business. The good news is you don’t need a finance degree to get it right. Start with a simple budget. Know how much is coming in, what’s going out, and what you’re setting aside. Think about things like stock, marketing, bills and wages if you’re hiring. Keep it realistic and keep it updated. Doing this from day one will make life much easier later. Reliable Cloud Services In 2025, storing everything on your laptop isn’t really a safe bet. Files go missing, computers break, and you don’t want to lose important stuff. That’s where cloud services come in. They keep your files secure, backed up and easy to access from anywhere. Whether it’s documents, customer info or creative work, having it all saved online gives you peace of mind. And when you're building a business in a digital-first world, having secure, accessible assets also means your team can collaborate more efficiently across channels—essential for strong communications. Flexible Payment Options Most people don’t carry cash anymore, so if you’re only accepting it, you’re going to lose sales. Get yourself a card reader that takes all the usual stuff like debit cards, credit cards, contactless and Apple Pay. The easier you make it for someone to pay you, the more likely they are to buy. Simple as that. A Basic Website Even if you’re not selling online, you still need a website. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Just something that tells people who you are, what you do, and how they can contact you. Think of your site as your digital front door. If someone hears about your business, chances are they’ll look you up online. Make sure what they find actually helps them. A clear website is also one of the most powerful communication tools your business has. We work with clients to ensure their digital presence reflects their story, purpose, and value. A Way to Spread the Word You can’t rely on people just stumbling across your business. You’ve got to put yourself out there. Social media is a great start, but don’t stop there. Think email newsletters , posters in your local area or even just chatting about your work whenever it comes up naturally. The more you talk about your business, the more others will too. Starting a business in 2025 is a big move, but it doesn’t have to feel impossible. Get the basics in place, stay flexible and keep learning. With the right tools and the right message, you can build momentum and create connection. Taiga Company helps growing businesses translate operational essentials into brand trust and long-term impact.
