The summer months are the heart of the “Demand Response” season in the United States, when the electric utility grid reaches a crisis point and raises the threat of rolling blackouts and power outages.  But can chain retailers play a key role in reducing demand on the overloaded utility grid?

The answer is “yes” – and they can get paid for it, too.  With advanced systems from Site Controls, the leading provider of enterprise energy management, facilities intelligence and grid efficiency solutions, retailers can participate in utility-sponsored Demand Response programs, which offer generous financial incentives for companies that agree to reduce their electrical consumption during times of peak demand.  Site Controls also allows retailers to:

• Save money – by implementing Site Controls’ Site-Command™ building automation solution systems that reduce electrical consumption 365 days a year

Tim Sanders has discovered a new movement afoot in the web world: socially responsibility web programming.  Initially, he noticed an underground conversation about low power , purpose-driving programming that reduces the energy use by its users.  If Google had a different color scheme (less white, more gray or muted color), there is evidence it could save a massive amount of energy.  Most programmers, though, don't realize that they have the power to create the web equivalent of the Prius.  According to Sanders, social responsibility and sustainability are about to jump out of heavy manufacturing and consumer goods – and squarely into the computer programming and web world, changing the basis for competition for capital, eye balls and top talent.

Tim Sanders is a combination of Warren Buffet and Paul Hawken and is an irrepressible advocate for good values in the business world. His fir

FetchBack's technology enables businesses to deliver messages to prospects after they leave a web site.  For example: someone who visited an online clothing store and left might see an ad for the retailer on Facebook, mySpace or the New York Times later that day. It's a process known as “retargeting” and FetchBack is the first company built from the ground up to address this unique form of advertising.

Using patent-pending technology, FetchBack allows web site businesses to recoup the investment made in attracting new prospects, by continuing the marketing relationship with them on other sites, at other times.

Because attracting new prospects often requires a large investment, FetchBack emphasizes its cost-effectiveness for continuing the relationship with prospects who responded to an initial pitch. The lost prospects who don’t become customers are a valuable target audience for follow-up messages – if marketers know how to reach them effectively.
