For any business, should you only be concerned with chasing sales, or watching your business energy overheads?
We don’t need to tell you that times are tough for businesses. Small businesses are continuing to struggle through bleak financial times and even big high street names are downsizing and cutting staff and stores. So, while you’re struggling to keep your business afloat, should you be solely concentrating on chasing sales, or should you also be keeping an eye on overheads such as business electricity?
The simple answer is, you should be doing both. Of course businesses need to keep growing and improving their sales, chasing new prospects and following up leads.
But it would be foolish to ignore overheads such as business energy prices, which particularly at this time of year can make or break a business’s bottom line.
Electricity for business is one of the major overheads faced by all companies, big or small, no matter whether they are a small, independent shop, an office based business or a factory.
In the winter all businesses will use more electricity for such things as heating and lighting. To ensure that your company is getting the best business electricity prices, using a business electricity comparison service is a great idea.
Of course, you want to know that the advice you are getting from such a service is reliable and truly impartial – many so-called business electricity price comparison services are not quite what they seem, tied in to a particular energy supplier. So you will get the best prices from a particular company, but not necessarily the best prices on the market.
The Energy Advice Line prides itself on being entirely impartial, not linked to any one supplier but able to negotiate lower prices than if a business approached suppliers independently.
They also offer great tips on switching and can help you through the entire process, ensuring that everything runs seamlessly, and leaving you more time to concentrate on increasing your sales.

The Energy Advice Line can also provide services such as a renewal reminder, which means that they will make a note of your contract renewal date and give you a call in time to remind you that the date is approaching, so that you can avoid being rolled over into an expensive contract without shopping around.
