Architects of Green and Sustainable Design, Branding and Market Positioning

 

We are Sustainability Strategists, creating sustainability initiatives that guide business through environmental stewardship as well as social and cultural responsibility towards profitability.

We Design GREENPRINTS, crafting empowering solutions for sustainability that help your business become a leader in its industry and for the World.

You've come here because green and sustainable are no longer buzzwords of a passing trend, but rather opportunities to differentiate yourself with genuine, authentic action towards preserving the Earth's natural resources and being responsible to its inhabitants, integrated with a mission to drive awareness and sales.

It's time to empower your customers, employees, stakeholders and your supply chain towards improving the way you do business. 

It's time to re-write the rules and rise above the bar.

 

Sustainability
The concepts of Green and Sustainability have grown in importance in the consumer's mind, more over the past year than ever before. Green and sustainable ideas, products and designs are being embraced by Wall Street on a daily basis and are in the headlines of every major newspaper, publication, and web site across the world. Environmental issues themselves are now an integral part of every marketplace. Sustainability -- embracing these environmental issues as well as social responsibility and the fiscal bottom line -- is no longer an option but a key driver for success.

Sustainable Design Initiatives
Sustainable design is the art of finding solutions which embrace environmental, social, cultural and fiscal responsibility.  Our initiatives are designed to reduce costs, increase value, drive sales and help move your company from "good" to "great."  Crafting these solutions requires intimate knowledge of business; what a business does, how it does it and the quest to do it profitably.  A true sustainable design is then the result of a successful business model that embraces the preservation of natural resources, minimizes waste and protects and preserves the planet going forward.  Even without the threat of global warming or other potential environmental doom, businesses are reaping significant rewards for embracing a more conscious design to their operations, products and services. 

To this end, The SKAN Project creates “Greenprints,” plans that go beyond typical one-off design, trendy branding and get-rich-quick marketing initiatives.  Instead, The SKAN Project engineers genuine and comprehensive sustainability initiatives towards embracing and profiting from being more green, more conscious and more authentic.   From cradle-to-cradle supply chain design, to super-efficient and LEED buildings, and the processes in between, The SKAN Project's skill set embodies your entire organization creating solutions that work to do good business while also doing good for the bottom line.

This is not “greenwashing,” with superficial messaging trying to mask unimproved operations, but instead, these Greenprints net authentic, highly conscious, and carefully planned strategies that can hold up to the bloggers and the advocacy groups and which will carry business far beyond the present day after the dust settles.

Following the Design:
Sustainable Branding and Marketing

Embracing and profiting from sustainability is more than a simplistic attempt to market to the cultural creatives in the LOHAS (lifestyles of health and sustainability) sector. Instead, The SKAN Project is passionate about helping corporate leaders grow their companies to embrace environmental as well as fiscal responsibility, companies that will become true leaders of the world for years to come.

Accordingly, as part of the Greenprint, The SKAN Project develops customized brand id and marketing vehicles, including viral campaigns, strategic relationships and market position strategies towards the delivery of genuine information about the company and its products or services.

SKAN
The SKAN Project understands the Fortune 500. We know the obligations you have to investors and shareholders. Yet those who only focus on the bottom line are going to be left behind.  It's time now to embrace sustainability and social responsibility as part of the cloth that makes your company what it is.

SKAN represents the energy that moves through all things, like ripples in a pond. Your corporation has the ability to create a powerful ripple effect amongst its chain of supply, its customers, its shareholders, the governmental agencies that it deals with, and the world.

You've arrived at this site because you've chosen to make a difference for your company.  You want to move your company from good to great. You want to be able to embrace and profit from being more responsible, more sustainable and as a result, better stewards for the benefit of businesses and individual alike.

The SKAN Project will get you there.
