Love Energy Savings Toasts 15th Birthday With Diversification Milestone

Love Energy Savings has marked its 15-year anniversary with an exceptional milestone for its new business model, following the launch of a fresh, multi product proposition: Business Utilities Made Simple.

Over the past twelve months, a record number of businesses have used its self-serve platform to switch utilities supplier, with over 40 per cent of all products sold not being energy, as the switching specialist has transformed itself into a business utilities marketplace.

It’s the latest success for the Bolton-based business which has been committed to driving innovation in the sector since it was established in 2007.

CEO Phil Foster comments: “Reaching the milestone of our fifteenth birthday, provides us with the perfect opportunity to reflect on how much we have achieved to-date.

“When we started all those years ago, we were a conventional energy broker, operating entirely offline. Over the past decade and a half we’ve continued to grow, always looking for the next opportunity that can elevate our business and level up our offering.

“That’s why we’re using our anniversary as a springboard to launch our new business proposition, Business Utilities Made Simple, taking our market leading technology, insights and expertise to the wider world of business utilities.

“Now, we’re a fully tech-enabled utility marketplace providing businesses up and down the country with stand-out service and products that help them drive down costs, across energy, water, telecoms and waste.

“And seeing a 400 per cent increase in business customers self-serving online over the past twelve months, is the icing on the cake of what has been an incredible journey so far. Customers have told us the option to switch their business energy contract in a few simple clicks when it suits them 24/7/365 is what sets Love Energy Savings apart.”

But how does Phil account for continued success of the business, which has saved customers over £100million to-date?

“The secret,” he says “is simple: It’s surrounding myself every day with people much, much smarter than I am.

“Our bright, brilliant and devoted colleagues are what make this business what it is, and inspire me every single day.”

Love Energy Savings has been widely acclaimed for its initiatives to engage its workforce, which includes adopting social media for internal comms and a Flexible-Flexible policy allowing colleagues to set their own hours and location of work.

Phil adds: “We’ve worked very hard to create a culture here that I’m incredibly proud to be a part of. It means colleagues are committed to going above and beyond for our customers every day.

“Business Utilities Made Simple is our biggest and most ambitious move yet, which with such a fantastic team behind it is such an exciting prospect as we head into 2023 and beyond.”
