OneFifty Consultancy awarded B Corp status.

We’ve just been awarded B Corp status - showing our commitment to business as a force for good.

Why was it important to become a B Corp digital marketing consultancy?

We went through B Corp accreditation because we think it’s the world’s toughest and most robust standard of business behaviour and impact. It spans all the key components of a business that does the right thing (our internal mantra for how to act) - recognising those who balance profit and purpose to create a positive impact on their employees, customers, communities, and the environment.

It assessed us across all areas of our business - from the organisations we work with to the businesses supporting us and how we engage as a team.

We’re very proud to have built a B Corp marketing business that can meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency.

What are some examples of what B Corp certification means in practice?

We profit share with colleagues and have employee ownership opportunities, with an industry-leading level of holiday (30 days)
We’re very deliberate about which organisations we work with, and why - driving stronger, more ethical relationships, driving unusually strong client retention and relationships
We bill by the work done, not the person delivering it for better transparency
We have the country’s 3rd most popular entry-level recruitment scheme, beaten only by Unilever and P&G, with avenues to meet candidates from all backgrounds where they are today
A commitment to ‘homegrown’ talent development, targeting over 50% of the team to have started with us, which now results in a senior leadership team who began with us

What do B Corp companies need to do?

Doing business better and differently requires all of us, and that’s recognised by B Corp - so thank YOU for being part of this milestone. We couldn’t have done it without you and this accreditation is a reflection of the impact we have together.

We’re sharing the news far and wide because we want more people to join us on this journey, and we think it’s important to stand up for business being done better and differently.

If you’d like to chat about what it means to us to join B Corp brands like Patagonia, Ben & Jerrys, Toms and Fat Face, or you'd like to work with a B Corp marketing agency, we’d love to talk. Contact us here.
