SUSTAINABILITY’ S ROI AND BUSINESS VALUE
HOW TO PROVE IT
• Identify sales or tenders won thanks to your sustainability commitments( e. g. ESG bonus points in a tender process)
• Gather testimonials from investors or clients that highlight the value of your sustainability efforts
• Use brand awareness, employer branding, or customer satisfaction KPIs and show how they’ ve improved following CSR campaigns or actions
• Showcase new business opportunities( e. g., sustainable products, circular economy initiatives) and their actual or potential revenue impact
TOOLS:
• CRM or sales tracking tools
• Customer or brand perception surveys
• ESG ratings( CDP, EcoVadis)
“ What was once seen as a reputational play is now a tangible driver of income and shareholder value. The ROI equation has evolved – today, environmental sustainability is directly tied to financial outcomes”
