ENERGY made easy
With energy prices at an all-time high, and this being a traditionally quieter time of year, it’s a good time to check your tariff and ensure you are getting the best deal
We are all fully aware that we need to make changes to save energy, save money, and help the environment. Still, a lot of advice is completely irrelevant in our industry, where we rely heavily on power to provide our services – at its worst, the advice can be completely patronising.
The NHBF is committed to helping members and the wider industry to be the best and most successful they can be, campaigning at the highest levels on issues such as the cost of doing business for the hair and beauty industry.
A new service
For the last 12 months, NHBF has been researching how it can help members, as the team anticipated the approach to this energy crisis. This led the NHBF to form a partnership with a leading energy consultancy, Direct Business Solutions.
As one of the largest consultancies in the UK, Direct Business Solutions has helped thousands of customers to save money on their utilities, helping manage the energy pricing crisis as simply as possible by finding the energy contract best suited to each business’s needs.
This new partnership service offers:
• Great prices and deals on your utilities
• A choice of like-for-like quotes, putting you firmly in control
• Simplicity – your dedicated account person will make this process hassle-free
• Clarity on your energy pricing and broker costs
• The right fit – match your business needs with the best supplier.
Making the switch
Switching energy is easy. It’s the same pipes, gas, meter and safety – you don’t lose supply – the only difference is price and customer service, and it can be done in a few weeks.
It’s one of the simplest ways to save money on energy bills, but 1.3 million businesses may be missing out on better deals by sticking with the same provider – and as none of us knows what will happen when the Energy Relief Fund ends in March, this should also provide some financial stability and so give you space to plan for future success.
