Throughout the process of bringing my first products to market, I learned how difficult it is for small businesses to employ environmentally sustainable and inclusive practices, especially when it comes to sourcing products. I needed someone to guide me through the correct questions to ask when attempting to source products sustainably.

I entered into this partnership with a specific goal in mind, which was to learn how to source products more sustainably. However, through my interactions and correspondence with Pact Three, I was able to identify core goals beyond my original one. To become a more purposeful business, my core goals developed into supporting my community and planet via social and environmental impact.

After my first meeting with Pact Three, I received a highly detailed and specific checklist for achieving my social and environmental goals. Not only could I see how to achieve my initial goal of this partnership, but I could see a true roadmap of opportunity that was inconceivable to me prior. Pact Three helped me put into words what I was aiming for in my head, and I have been able to quickly make positive changes to my business practices. The best “value add” was the specificity of recommendations to me, and Pact Three’s quick responses when I had questions about certain areas of my action plan.

Where to start? Prior to my interactions with Pact Three, I had never heard of the terms “KPI” and “OKR” or “NPS.” I had no idea that my tiny business could employ collaborative relationships such as a “Stakeholder Panel” and “Non-Fiduciary Board.” While these are definitions one could “google,” I would have passed over these tenets of running a sustainable business as being non-starters for a single-member LLC. Learning about these tools and collaboratively building protocols around them allowed me to refine my goals, clearly see short- and long-term achievable objectives, and gave me the confidence that I was taking steps in the correct direction. Pact Three is knowledgeable, and I did not feel judged or patronized in any interaction. Beyond this, the public implements on my website birthed from my Pact Three interactions have made me a more reliable and trustworthy brand.

I am so grateful that I entered into a partnership with Pact Three. The collaboration has given me a confidence in my brand’s scope that I did not have before. Pact Three answered all of my sustainability questions, and I have accomplished major business milestones with their support. We recently issued the first #easeintoeducation scholarship, created written policies aligned with my true mission and values, and successfully created a 100% recyclable packing process for all of my products.

Reliable, productive, and measurable.
